Is this a semantics argument? Like you’re arguing over the proper use of “scam”? or do you not see how the word scam could be implied in this context?
I ask because I was about to present a big thing with links and timelines showing how this has all played out since the early 2000’s, but I’m not gonna go to all the trouble if you’re just upset that a better word should be used besides “scam” since there is some sort of measurable output being performed.
(I still think scam is apt when you start breaking down the terminology though, it’s still fraudulent practices which have been performed for the companies benefit, i.e. funding away from NASA)
two launches, put lander in lunar orbit with one rocket, put the command module and crew up in another. Almost all of the hardware is man rated and ready to fly, just need a LM.
I like SpaceX. They have done and continue to do some truly amazing things but I can’t get excited for their successes any more because of their association with Musk.
If he we’re just a shitty business man I’d get it and would just choose not to buy his products, but he’s inserted himself into the workings of our government and our everyday lives. He’s actively participating in tearing apart our democracy. Cool rocket, bro doesn’t fucking cut it. It’s like saying Hitler was a bad guy, yes, but he really helped revolutionize vapor transfer technology.
It’s fine to continue to downvote me on this. I may be wrong, but the merit of what I said is what matters, right?

Without reading or verifying anything, I’m just going to assume this is an Elon alt.

They sure know how to blow up rockets real good.

Starship is a 100% categorical failure though. It’ll never carry a payload.

Tell me Falcon Heavy couldn’t push a Crew Dragon to the moon.

A Musk property can do nothing good while doing so much bad, my dude.
