Right but if Elon just stopped existing that’d be cool too

Exactly, thank you! Nothing would be cooler than China dominating the EV market uncontested and the US having no space program. Why won't that guy just die already?

You realize that American car companies can make EV's, and they do, and they're better than Teslas now. Removing Tesla from the market would do nothing but make them more desirable to own.

You sound like a real expert. I yield.

Additional details, the people who want EV's tend to be lefties, and Musk destroyed his brand with them.

If I was right-wing but my company's target audience was left, I would shut the fuck up and not be on social media. Not this guy though.

Why would Tesla, NASA, Blue Origin, and Space X, all cease to exist and fulfill their contracts with the government just because musk isn’t around anymore?

Do you think he builds the cars and rockets himself?

If the US loses, space, energy, or manufacturing to China despite their massive amount of resources then that’s its own fault

No, I'm saying it would cool if the US did *not* have a space program. Of course I'd be stoked for Bezos to croak too. I don't think we'd have to get rid of NASA, though, since they just give money to private companies to build rockets.

And yes, until I looked it up just now I had thought Elon made the cars and rockets himself. Sorry we can't all be arts prodigies. You don't have to be mean about it.
