    What makes you say that?

    I mean, Elon, sure, but did the company overall do something I missed…?

        So no actual proof, eh?

        Look - IMHO, Elon and his cars are expensive garbage, but for real accusations on his character and business ethics/acumen to stick, you need to show proof - not hearsay.

        That’s the shit he sells.

          There’s nothing but proof that’s publicly available. Now, I don’t have the sourced wall of text post readily at hand (that you would immediately ignore and attempt to wiggle your way out of as you seem a bit of a sycophant), but you’re being disingenuous if you can’t admit that he objectively lacks character/ethics in his business and personal life.

          If you do somehow genuinely need an education on how much of a grifter fraud elon is, you start with watching all the videos about him on the YouTube channel called (I believe), thunderfoot. Youtube search elon and thunderfoot in YouTube.

          But I don’t think you’ll be doing any of that… I imagine you’ll be spending your evening sitting in your bathtub in your tesla bot spandex onesie making hyperloop noises and constantly refreshing the order status page for your 6 year old tesla semi pre-order?

              I guess the Hyperloop noise is just silence then? As it doesn’t actually exist.

                SpaceX doesn’t mind blowing up living people, too

                Try to focus. We’re still on the accusation SpaceX kills people.

                Stop moving the target; you just come off as a ranting looney. If we’re to turn the tide on Musk’s propensity to lie and cheat, we have to look at least honest in what we’re offering as proof, and not some half-baked constant argument.

      Their way of working. It is like a software shop, for example the “fail fast” principle.

      This seems disruptive in the world of engineering, and it has caused many people wonder. But it is not the best way if you suddenly have living people sitting in the rockets.
