Musk's bullshit endangers the valuable things he's doing.

If he wants to make Starship a reality, he needs permits and government contracts.

I met an African-American man about ten years ago who owned an excellent patent portfolio covering technology like this

but he was the only black person I've ever met who hated Barack Obama. He was an extreme Republican, thought Democrats all worked for the anti-Christ, etc.

I figured there was no way he'd succeed at what he was trying to do because he'd need to make nice with the government no matter who the administration was. I haven't heard from him again.

I see Musk going down the same road. I can only imagine the last man is dying on Earth 1000 years from now and cursing: "If only Elon Musk didn't have to post that tweet we would have made it to Mars."
