You should lead the movement by refusing to use anything that needs a satellite to operate.

Hey dumbf*&^, we were fine before Musk began polluting LEO with his trash that benefits nobody but himself.

Stop being such a pathetic knob gobbler for one second and actually think.

In any case, yay! Musk has finally, after tens of billions of tax payer dollars and untold environmental pollution, replicated what was attained in the 1960's after developing the tech from rudimentary, barely able to reach ballistic trajectories to heavy lift capabilities and landing on the moon...

...except that piece of idiotic s*&^ had the entirety of manned space flight knowledge behind him to develop his giant flying d*&^ that has only just reached orbit.

Meanwhile, the Saturn V only flew 13 times with 9 of them being flights to the moon and one a launch of the first space station.

Musk is nothing but an opportunist piece of s*&^ who could speak to idiots for support because he knew they wouldn't know any better. No wonder he inevitably hooked up with Trump to keep his pipeline of government cash free flowing.

but Falcon 9 does land itself

Yes. But for all his bluster, Musk has done NOTHING to actually advance space flight capabilities. We the tax payers have done little more than fund the R&D of his personal LEO ISP that he's leveraged into global power positions all because he constantly talked out his a&& about mars.

I can only imagine what will happen when he starts getting contracts to launch weapons (if he hasn't already).

Musk didn't win the Ansari X prize, correct?

X-37B flies to orbit on Falcon 9.

So?

Allegedly the 10,000+ Starlink satellites can use their lasers to blind enemy satellites.

So a private company has been launching weapons into orbit for years before it became taboo under this s*&^ administration? That's a dunk how?

SpaceX is a highly successful military contractor and has been across GWB, GWB, Obama, Obama, Trump, Biden, and Trump again. Pretty much the definition of bipartisanship.

Again, so?

people that adored him as virtue signaling, to now ---- on him as virtue signaling.

Except I never "adored" him. I always saw through him as a vapid piece of s*&^ selling other people's ideas as his own.

And all it ever took was listening to that moron open his own mouth in interviews to know what an empty suit he is.

Funny thing is, your position sounds more like the anti-anti-skeptic by sticking to yesterday's trend bucker even after it's been made abundantly clear what a grifting, lying, dumb pile of s*&^ dumbf*&^ he really is. You seen to think sticking with that bucket of worthless s*&^ makes your edgier than the former fan bois who have jumped.

Sorry to tell you, sport, but Musk is s*&. He'll always be s*&^. If you need further proof, watch how his newly shifted grand plans for moon bases slowly dwindles in size, scope and value while Mars landings become unmentionable.

How much corporate experience do you have?

Because no offense, but you sound like the kind of person who is easily smitten by the latest "thing" and who goes all in on it with a passion and obsession that doesn't allow for consideration of whether or not the hype is real.

You then squeeze what positives you can from the wreckage while ignoring the overwhelming larger amount of negatives or failures.

Which means I can't tell if you're a naive dreamer who hasn't seen enough to know what's really going on or you're a fully committed lifer who believes the narrative no matter how obvious a polished turd it is.

became taboo under this s*&^ administration?

WASN'T taboo...

I was the only person pointing out the hype over Tesla.

The "only"?

You're gonna need Hans for the citations in support of that blanket statement.

Onelumpofs*^% show up to, of course, simp for Trump's lap dog.

"Innovation"

lol what a stupid piece of s*^#.
