Most people here don’t understand the genius of this comment
I love you. Here have my like.
MY GOD THANK YOU. Dont forget tiktok either...
@Aristides Gonzalez I think it’s also abt how they cancel people for anything and try their best to make someone look racist even if they don’t know the context.
underrated comment LOL

Elon musk: gives explanation
Crowd at the end: *awkward cough*

lame excuse anyway

@@shorty1shot 99% of the racism in america today is directed at white americans. Its the only group where both the media and politicians make openly racist statements towards. And not only are there no consequences, they are praised for it.
Yeah, it's the same with NASA. You can't apply for that job unless you are an actual US citizen, and for some jobs you actually need to be BORN in the US to apply.
Truth be told, this is not actually as unreasonable as it may sound. Because corporate espionage is a very real threat, and when we talk about rockets... well, even if it's a civilian rocket, it's still a rocket. It doesn't really matter what payload you put into it - a satellite, an astronaut or a nuke. It'll fly up just as good and deliver the load wherever you need it. So to have such technology exposed to people from other countries - is a real threat, and nobody wants to do that. Space programs of other countries are operating under the same rules, too, so US is not unique here.
It sucks when you're an honest engineer who just wants to work on rockets. But that's the price we are paying for security.
@Popiiporo Imagining that reminded me of that "Texas Plumbers truck bought by ISIS" story... lmao
let's be real. going to space is secondary to developing ballistic missiles.
NASA was created by nazi scientists though 🤔 oh the irony.....
@@OnTheBlankUK not so much created but they were used.
Despite how it looks oficially, they were basically prisoners who traded their work in exchange for freedom. If they didnt agree to work for nasa - they would have either be imprisoned or grabbed by Soviet Union. Those people had no choice, nowhere to run, and no one to sell their secrets to. Im sure they were kept under surveilance for their entire life in usa.
So those are "safe" for NASA to employ. Notso with an immigrant who can learn a lot over 10 years and then decide to go back home and bring his knowledge with him, or even be a spy from the start.
yeah all those nazis who made NASA's tech work were good Americans.
He handled that question in a very respectable manner
Well, he told the truth.
Am I missing something? That was a good question on behalf of the world who wants to contribute to space exploration. And he answered the question. Why shouldn't he have been respectful? Lol she doesn't look dumb she got her question answered
@@Gafferd8186 the way she asked it tho wasn't the most polite way
@@chakra_x yes totally agree. And the crowd just cheering her on just made it look bad on elon. Glad he debunked that claim so they could just stay quiet.
@@Gafferd8186 Well said. All you're missing is the implied surprise that he handled it so well! If he hadn't said such ridiculous things elsewhere, this 'win' would be the non-story it actually is!
If she had asked "is there a reason for not hiring foreigners", without making accusations, she wouldn't have sounded completely foolish
Or "what is the reason for..." implying that there is a (good) reason for it. That would have been a rather polite and diplomatic way of approaching Musk.
@@Christian-dd2qm absolutely, wise words. In most cultures nowadays (with exceptions of some remote tribes) we are raised in a society where we are taught to live in pure solipsism with no sign of self-conscioussness. We need to break free from it

@@asutororika4291 “When are you going to hire people from other countries?” robs him of the question and conversation, it just directly implies that he’s able to but isn’t for some reasons. It’s a rhetorical question.
“Is there a reason for not hiring foreigners?” is a start to a conversation and helps you understand the true reasons and be educated.
She was too quick to jump to conclusions and didn’t even think of the possibility of them being wrong, I guess that kind of flaw exists in most humans but only if she had presented it well enough, quite a impulsive person I suppose, these kinds of people won’t make good journalists but could be fantastic paparazzi

Alexander Raptakis lmao i was thinking the same that guy is so fucking smart.
A lot of people say that he's just stressed out when he's doing public speeches as he's more of an engineering worker than a public speaker To me, however, it almost seems like a form of speech impediment, since I have one too, I see the similarities. Even if it would be just a very minor form of it, I know from experience that it disturbs person's train of thoughts and considering all the things he wants to share, it makes him stutter.

@@pulgamecanica You are stupid
@@pulgamecanica are you stupid? She clearly asked the question in a hostile manor to make him appear like he's deliberately being patriotic or racist. Even though he's not an American by birth
I like how the crowd went from mindlessly clapping and having a "YEAAH!" mentality from that woman's assertion, and then almost immediately went "... oh... shit." and got so quiet you could hear a pen drop
Yes, it got quiet very quickly... you could even hear some guy cough in the audience, it was so silent. 💯 That woman was hoping for the gotcha moment, and she got schoolled very handily by the actual truth.
I mean he is speaking in International Astronautical Congress not American Astronautical Congress...so of course there will be people cheering.
I thought the crowd was cheering because there are many non-Americans who desperately want to work at SpaceX. And this is a question they actually want to know the answer to. Why are people saying this was a racist crowd?
@@blake4590 non of us talked to the crowd and people passed judgements quickly.

"You're going interplanetary, but you're not going international." Oh my God, what is this, a debate club? I mean sure we got a good bit of knowledge out of Elon's answer, but from the way she asked the question, it's pretty obvious she was hoping he would have no answer in the first place. How do you get a chance to ask Elon Musk a question in person, for the potential benefit of millions, and decide you're just gonna go and try to be the cleverest person in the room?

Is it _really_ hard to believe that he just genuinely thinks that these people are misinformed? Clearly they did know the deal and he was able to see that, so he cleared it up. I didn't know that rockets were specifically secure technology (you can't opensource or leak Space X code _or_ hardware, as far as I can recall) until I started looking into aerospace about three years ago. Considering that they didn't, they're in line to make some assumptions, even if they aren't good ones.
@@ivoryas1696 Of course he was just explaining the situation, I was joking.
But, do you think he didn't get just a bit of satisfaction from putting the cheering simpletons right when they were clearly hoping he had been tripped up? They were clearly wishing (cheering) for him to be exposed as some sort of closet racist. He must have found some satisfaction in batting their infantile misconceptions right out of the ballpark.

It’s an interesting question, I wondered too why they hired only Americans, and like always: laws.
I dont think so. It's very possible there were a lot of foreign born engineers in that audience and they were just conveying that they would also to be part of the space x project.

The point was you need "more than a green card" work visa which is typical for several American companies. Many journalists never do bonafide research and is so typical of many liberal arts majors today. Still, Musk was gracious in his response to a "woke" audience.

@@imluvinyourmum
But realized he's been all over the world and still no better place to live.
@@johnkeller9738 A "green card" is not a work visa. There's no such thing as a work visa anyway. A visa is a document that grants you entry into a country for a specific purpose. Some visas CAN allow you to be eligible to work. You then need to apply for a work permit (EAD) that actually allows you to work in the country. It's typically valid for a year and has to be renewed. A green card status on the other hand does not *expire.* The card does every 10 years but the benefit doesn't. What Musk didn't explain very well is that there are certain jobs ( FBI, Police, some federal or federally contracted jobs such as SpaceX) that are only open to US Citizens!

Fr... he also said “rockets are considered an advanced weapons technology” I mean outsiders will kill to know the secrets to these technology. That journalists sure didn’t study or think before she asked that question.
First rule of being a lawyer: Never ask a question you dont know the answer to.
@Luis You literally described how and why the question was both filled with malice and self righteousness on behalf of the person asking.
@@luemas_desu5903 No, they're just filled with globalist propaganda to the point where they're nothing more than quasi-commie zombies.
That's the magic word to silence a left wing statist, because their god has made a decree that their virtue signalling does not agree with, thus they look very stupid.
"b-but muh gubbermint is supposed to do left wingy thingies! D: D: D: D: D:"
The fact that this even needs to be explained to people is a little weird to me. Rockets, since their invention, have always been both for wonder and weapons. Hell, the Space Race only started because the Soviet Union put Sputnik into orbit on what was essentially an ICBM without the warhead. Of course the United States government isn't going to be cavalier about who it lets work on what it deems weapons technology.
Imagine asking a question before googling it, to Elon musk lol
He's not a genius or anything.
She was just uninformed, no big deal.
I mean it was a good question, and good answer
@@Juuk-D How is it a good question when you can literally google it? Furthermore expectations of racism is just incredible, it's incredible how stupid people are to cheer to this question. Anyone who are into this type of technology could've easily known or guessed the answer. Do people not realize Space rockets share similarities with rockets that are used to.. well, bomb?
Sorry but no one are trying to be racist anymore, sure there is a minority that is racist, sure there is racism even against americans.
Incredibly sad.

Did she really think one of the smartest men on earth was a bigot?
Or did she not understand the reason why SpaceX did not higher internationally and wanted to clarify?
jonathan lo Alright, so she didn't understand. Why did she ask the question in such a disrespectful, accusatory manner? "Why are you going interplanetary, and not international?" Without doing any research of her own on the matter, she had it in her head that Elon was the villain, and she was the hero. Prejudice. You can build electric cars, and do everything to you can to build a brighter future. None of it will appease the narcissistic wannabe heroes that seem to have a problem firing at the people that are actually causing problems. Cause that's not what it's about, it's about being the hero! Not about actually solving problems. It's about being superior over everyone else.
Christian : No offense... but smartest man on earth? He might have had some neat ideas, made a shitton of money and now has an army of engineers and a vision...
Bigot does not equal stupid. You can be a bigot and be highly intelligent. Intelligence does not automatically equal good morals.
That's definitely the incorrect use of the word bigot, but say he did only want to hire Americans, how would that make him a bigot?
that cough at the end, was just the cherry on top
i dont think Elon was offended, he was informing his audience about a policy the crowd didn't know
It made me laugh out loud, am I bad? Lol
@Furyan Auror To me, another sjw was terminated by Elon. Case is closed.
Your comment is lit
Appearantly the justice department now disagrees with mr. Musk.
"Never, because we're racist." - is the answer that crowd was hoping for
Racist? USA cant be racist with anyone HAHAHA
Silver Werewolf no, but the idiots that ask questions like that think that 99% of America is white, so to them it is a race.
@@Slender_Man_186 they never saw usa then, to think that... completly ignorant haha
@@Slender_Man_186 The majority of Americans do see America as "white". It's not, but people choose to be idiots anyways. A large portion of people literally can't even tell the difference between an immigrant and a refugee.
Bruh Sound Effect 1 well, it is a majority white country, about 70%. Still, I don’t see why diversity is forced down America’s throats, when we’re already the most diverse country in the world. No one bitches about the Middle-East being too Arab, or Africa being to black, or Asia being too Asian. Why? Because that’s retarded, and they only care about targeting whites, even if it means ignoring, misinterpreting, or making up facts.
When Elon stops while speaking, he’s thinking of moving to another planet
Bullshit
Bad joke
Raj nobody fucking cares about your criticism
Erik Hernandezzz ok
Or maybe how to exile the dumb people to sun
This is so funny 😂😂😂 everyone was cheering at first, now they silent and embrassed lol This is the thing, you need to give people a chance, to explain there side of things first, you don't what you don't know. Asking the question is fine, but listen to the other side, unless you have experience in that situation
No fucking applause for a perfect answer from Elon but they will sure put their hands together for an uniformed, click-bait question.
"Clickbait question". So true, that's perfectly phrased.
The video ended before an applause could be had..
Wasn't really an answer one could applaud to, to be honest.
"We cant hire foreigners because the government doesn't allow it"
*applause*
See, seems weird right. Applausing to negativity is weird. But it's weird people applaused to that stupid ass question too tho I get that.
Yep

That crowd blindly cheering after that woman’s “progressive” statement is about as cringe inducing as a laugh track playing during a funeral.
people play laugh tracks at funerals?

Bunch of sheep.
Most progressives are sheep
We need to stop calling them "progressives." They're just idiots.
@Dream Theory In what way are they all just a bunch of idiots? All overreaching moral/societal belief systems are bound to have some issues, but just because one lady mistakenly asked a rather pointed question does not prove that every progressive is a moron.
What is your definition of progressive?
I love how this video ends with one single cough from the audience, who got silenced.
That's the cough of "fate acceptance"
I thought that cough was from Elon lol he's quite nervous when it comes to public speaking
Laser Mayonnaiser Actually he thinks about new ideas when stops while talking.
I thought that was the cricket that coughed
@@cameronpeterson6734 Err no it's quite clearly someone in the audience..
There was no reason to be rude in asking that question, especially when the answer is pretty obvious if you’ve done any research at all on the subject…
If she's a journalist, then research will never be part of the equation.

BoiledEgg And even that presumption is ridiculous. US citizens and greencard holders come with all ethnic backgrounds. Stating that not hiring foreigners equals racism is galactically stupid.
Wym bruh there are a lot of races in the USA
@Celo I guess "people want to be angry nowadays"
They didn’t cheer because it’s an unfortunate situation, you’ve become the very thing you swore to destroy

She was thinking about nationality not race, those are 2 different things.
@@formerunsecretarygeneralba9536 how did you verify that?
@@amylynn5778 did you not watch the video? She was concerned about people who aren't American citizens. It was a really good question, I too was confused on why elon doesn't open spacex internationally.
Love that he had a calm and collected response to this question. The question isn't exactly a problem, but the tone in which it was asked, followed by the cheering by the crowd, made his explanation and resulting silence all the more enjoyable.
I will say that I feel like the question could have been worded a bit different. It seems like the way the question is worded comes off as a question with the purpose of catching the answerer off-guard. For example, if you were to ask a married man "When did you stop beating your wife?" How do you answer that?
@@IGamingStation I think "When did you stop beating your wife" is a widely exaggerated example of how her question was worded. You're right that it could be construed as a question to catch Elon off guard, but at the same time, you can see why people would want to know the answer. Especially those that are keen to be a part of the Space X program but can't because it's currently a closed shop for Americans (not that I knew that). I honest think the question is a perfectly acceptable question, but her tone suggested that there's something wrong with the fact that they haven't hired outside the US.
Yea she said it as if she was accusing him of being racist at the same time.
Loool
@@notherntranceaddict181 Yes I agree the tone and cheering from the crowd, they all wanted to put Elon on blast but they all went quiet when they realized he had a good answer.
"You're going _interplanetary,_ but you're not going *international."*
I wonder how many sleepless nights she spent struggling to come up with that.
She probably didn't make the script.
All the 14 year olds in the crowd thought that was so deep lol.
To be fair she did asked a fair and logical question inquiry career's and job's for engineer's whom are very talented but from other countries.
He response were honest. That Spacex not just involved with his future dream of colonising Mars, but SpaceX is also a part of the /Military Industrial Complex/ hence why he said he would loves to hire people(foreigner with talented rocketry and engineers skills), at the same time he mentions the Government program and his hand being tied.
@@raananben-aviel3935 Five minutes of research would hv gotten her the answer she wanted if she was honest.The moment question came to her mind she could hv found out the real reason.
I knew that before i watched the video.
This is not "i really want to know so i should ask him" but more like " hey, i noticed something and i will ask him on stage...i get to embarass him in front of crowd and i ll b the hero" mentality.
Too bad elon just checkmated her.
@@raananben-aviel3935 The question itself is fair and it gives Musk a chance to address it publicly which is fine. Her front loading it with "when are you going to give other people a chance" just shows she wasn't looking for an answer, she was looking to pin him because she felt excluded. That's where a minute of research and a follow up question on how to go about it could've made her look intelligent instead of like an idiot.
