Musk is collaborating with fascists. Here’s an example: https://news.yahoo.com/elon-musk-speak-russian-conference-17...

Attending a conference in Russia is collaborating with fascists? This comment is hysterical in every sense of the word.

There’s no private business in Russia, almost all economy is state owned in practice. That particular conference is organized by Sberbank.
By speaking at the conference, Musk is directly collaborating with Russian government.

I don't want to be rude, but I'd say if you fall for that then you're a sucker.
Tell me which of Elon's companies would exist today without heavy government subsidies or largesse?
He is a modern day Ross Perot. No more, no less. Maybe he wants to make the world a better place - but only if he can get extravagantly wealthy on US taxpayer dollars doing it.
He's obsessed with Mars because it represents the fattest international government contract that ever existed.
