Ah great, we can pin our hopes on elon-fucking-musk.

It's fair to say that we're "cooked" in ever sense of the word.




Elon knows his shit. The media sensationalizes his antics but he knows his shit and is very capable.

The only thing bad about Elon is business interests he will make policies that promote his own businesses. But trump will likely do the same.


> Elon knows his shit

I’ve been saying since the hyperloop in like 2014 that he doesn’t, and he’s done nothing to convince me otherwise.


he caught a rocket. Bro. He knows his shit.


I believe his engineers know their shit, and I give him props for funding them.


Elon is knee deep in engineering. He’s not only the person pushing this direction at a high level, he is down in the weeds.

You don’t know your shit if you aren’t aware of how close Elon is to engineering and science.


He’s not knee deep in engineering, at all. It’s ridiculous to imagine he is.

He hasn’t designed or engineered a single component. He hasn’t managed any internal project.

I have to ask, are you president of his fan club? You seem personally offended that I pointed out that he doesn’t actually contribute meaningfully to any engineering work.


>I have to ask, are you president of his fan club? You seem personally offended that I pointed out that he doesn’t actually contribute meaningfully to any engineering work.

No. I'm not a fan at all. But I don't have this biased hatred for him that you seem to have.

You are truly out of touch about this guy if you don't know that he's knee deep in engineering. Not even joking here. The fact that you don't know this shows that you don't really know much about him. Dude, just read his biography or if you don't have time watch the above video that sums it up from an unbiased pov.
