in no particular order, athough likely newest on top ’cause i’m too lazy to go to the bottom.
— 2025-08-28 – Thursday – in the comments section on a story about space-x finally getting Ship 10 to orbit and back, nothing blown up. Agree mostly on SpaceX and Tesla, but disagree on Hyperloop. Hate him for being an idiot, egomaniac, sex abuser, possible nazi, he’s still made huge impact in space rocketry and electrical vehicles.
here’s the text:
A decade ago I answered a question on Quora that asked who was the better CEO, Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk.
My answer was that Bezos was primarily focused and known for Amazon, which had famously shut down thousands of family owned and mid-sized retailers out of business nationwide and has harmed hundreds of thousands of families in the process. Moreover their Warehouse new hires all get SNAP benefits applications, because even thought they are full time employees, their low pay by Amazon makes them eligible. Amazon, therefore is a parasitic corporation that uses tax payer dollars to offset its operating costs
Musk on the other hand created PayPal which revolutionized online purchasing and money transfer, and has had a massive and impactful focus on transportation as seen with Tesla, SpaceX, and the Hyperloop project, which stands to make a real difference in the world. Additionally, his work at Tesla has had a major impact. Tesla was the breakthrough that made EVs a thing. And Tesla’s work on self driving features has driven competition and innovation in that tech area. The overall impact of Musks work is increased commerce by enabling flow of capital, and jobs creation worldwide through the investment he had driven in the EV and self-driving tech sector. Every car manufacturer has added staff to design and develop EV vehicles and batteries, as well as helped drive investment and startups focusing on self driving vehicles, which can now see has also helped drive the development of AI
So, by those standards, Musk is the better CEO because his business choices and direction are ones that stand to benefit the most people where we see so much harm caused by Bezos’ business
Of course now we have Dr Ketamine planning world domination with Mecha-Hitler2.0 while sleeping under a desk in an office that smells like stale urine and BO
So for a little while there, Musk was someone to be admired and respected.
Now he can go fark himself and his robot with chainsaw hands
and this reply….

Christ, the groveling Musk dweebs still gotta polish the rim even when he spends all your fed tax money failing over and over, stoking farking straight-up swastika-flying sieg-heiling Nazis and dismantling the social safety net in your country. Star Trek isn’t real and isn’t gonna happen, geeks. On the off chance it did, you wouldn’t be invited. Space isn’t nearly as cool or useful as your juvenile nerd TV fantasy programmed you to think.
Musk is farking scum full stop and always has been. There was never a period where he was good or a visionary or an innovator. He’s a farking fat failson parasite Nazi loser even with all the money in the world. He has more power than any other human and still will always be a weird, off-putting cringelord without the full complement of human emotion or experience.
Farking nerds. You guys gotta get out more. Space is boring. Star Trek isn’t real and isn’t your future.
