  • @odurthomasmande1723

    Elon Musk previously supported the Democratic Party, openly admiring Hillary Clinton and Andrew Yang. However, his enthusiasm waned as the party's actions increasingly frustrated his endeavors.
    The politically motivated machinations of various government actors, which targeted his companies, including SpaceX and Tesla, with unfounded regulatory obstacles, took a significant toll on his finances and well-being.
    In my opinion, this relentless opposition ultimately reached a breaking point, prompting Musk to reevaluate his allegiance. He responded in the only manner he knew best: by redirecting his political support.
    Musk's shift away from the Democratic Party, following what he perceived as a betrayal, underscores the complexities of political alignments and the human response to perceived injustice.
    Walter Isaacson should know better, than just custigating his political endeavors as "off-putting".

You've always been a stand up guy Joe. And I like Walter's work on biography of Musk, but he has a political side big time.

    Let's be clear: the feud between Elon and the Democrats was started by the Democrats. Elon's companies thrive because of excellent leadership, hard work and hiring on merit, something that democrats are opposed to. They shunned him when talking about electrical car makers in America and failing to mention Tesla. They shunned him by giving more money to Boeing than Spacex when Boeing has done nothing noteworthy with said money and Blue Origin has yet to put anything in orbit which is laughable when you look at the facilities and money it has at its disposal. The policies in California made it more and more difficult for him to get things done. The final straws were him losing his son to Transmania and the democrats inserting a candidate without a single vote. He will get the acknowledgement he deserves once we get the democrats out of office. Keep in mind that the democrats have awarded Boeing $4.2B of taxpayer money to launch astronauts to the ISS and have achieved squat and now require SpaceX to rescue their astronauts. I just laugh to myself. The days of Elon needing democrat funding are over. SpaceX has 4,000,000 Starlink customers and growing all paying a minimum of $100/month. That's billions of revenue soon to be 10's of billions in revenue per year.

      Surveyor 1, the first of a series of seven robotic spacecraft sent to the moon to gather data in preparation for NASA's Apollo missions.
      NASA had 6 successful missions that did land men on the Moon : Apollo 11, 12, 14, 15, 16 and 17.
      And 12 astronauts landed on the Moon.
      There have been nine successful US Mars landings: Viking 1 and Viking 2 (both 1976), Pathfinder (1997), Spirit and Opportunity (both 2004), Phoenix (2008), Curiosity (2012), InSight (2018) and Perseverance (2021).
      A Mars landing is a landing of a spacecraft on the surface of Mars. Of multiple attempted Mars landings by robotic, uncrewed spacecraft, ten have had successful soft landings.

    In this interview, Walter Isaacson suggests that Waymo’s robotaxi service is limited to certain mapped areas because of its technology. Actually, that’s not the main reason. Waymo restricts its vehicles to designated areas mostly due to regulatory requirements and a commitment to safety, which allows it to operate fully autonomously without any human supervision. Technically, while Waymo’s system could operate outside mapped areas, it relies on highly detailed, pre-mapped zones to maintain the precision and reliability regulators expect for public roads. By focusing on these mapped areas, Waymo has earned regulatory permission to operate without a driver - something Tesla’s FSD hasn’t yet achieved. This careful approach aligns with public safety standards and helps build trust in driverless technology.

They had two million reservations, which is now completely gone ( you can order a cybertruck now and pick it up in 2 weeks), and they have sold less than 40k cybertrucks overall. Instead of making a viable truck, or an economy car, he made a meme. I think the drugs did him in. Everything is just random, stupid decisions now.

And these people need to stop giving Elon credit for what actual scientists and engineers at spacex are doing... the reason people like me can't stand Elon is because of the personality disorder and heavy narcissistic tendencies... he's very clearly a pathological liar portraying a false idealized version of himself. It's only a matter of time before it crumbles for Elon, people are starting to catch on to the fact that he doesn't know what he's talking about most of the time. And he has a little boy ego. He should remove himself from decision making roles at his companies until he gets his personality disorder and substance abuse under control.

    Tesla 's presentation this week once again successfully deceived millions worldwide - including many of the company's fans and investors. At the event - where, among other things, Tesla's robot taxi and Robovan were unveiled - several copies of the company's Optimus robot were also present, which apparently did fantastic, sci-fi-like things - but only thanks to a cunning ugliness.
    At the show, among other things, the Optimuses mingled with the guests, played rock-paper-scissors with them, and even had one of them stand at a bar and start serving the press and guests - like a a real bartender would do. Except
    Tesla's robots did not work independently at all, but were controlled remotely by real people,
    their movements and even spoke through them at the event.

    Musk is also a member of the general public. Hence, he is completely entitled to make his own choices, verbalize his likes and dislikes and in general, express his opinion. Just because he left the Democrat party and became Republican, that doesn't remove his basic rights.
    If you, dear reader, don't want to read/hear his opinions, then leave him alone; go and entertain yourself somewhere else.

    Don't think companies can survive in bad country. What is happening to Jack Ma in China? I don't agree with them about Elon Musk jumping into politics. Will see.

    Joe is the genius. A very offensive one. When he is enthusiastic about something you know it's not good.

    The absolute worst scenario is those in charge of an entity surrounding themselves with "yes folks." Currently the largest potential threat of what they referred to as "Big Brother", with abilities to gather info. and surveillance on folks to either keep them in line or to use against what they perceive as enemies. The Warner lot happening this past weekend was lame when comparing to my visit to Disney a half-century ago. They are calling them sloth-bots with human interfacing movements and voices. Waymo is active, not in a studio lot with hoards of safety spacing being used. As far as political, he fails to consider if any rallies of DJT have any Tesla's in the parking lots. The usual attendee of such hates not on the EV though but of any technical innovation that they think the government may control them with on an ICE automobile. If it were their choice, a decades old auto using points & distributor is preferred. They now find themselves fully on board without question, never thinking that starlink and a fully connected Tesla follows their every click and driving habit. Why DJT love the uneducated folks who wear his name or mantra upon their foreheads and in their yards like the Ashera Poles of old.

      All of that useless rhetoric just to call Trump supporters uneducated and dumb. But that's what u are. U have the understanding of a 2 year old when it comes to being manipulated by the left-wing nutcase democrats.
