Clearly you haven’t been following his actions. This isn’t new. See for example when he called a rescuer a pedophile or when he told companies to not advertise on Twitter, or a myriad of other instances. You can literally search for “tantrum” with his name and find more examples than you’ll know what to do with.
> what's happening in the US government is your problem
Don’t assume everyone you talk to on the internet lives in or is a citizen of the USA.
> we have our own problems
Including a despot. Which is unfortunate. You shouldn’t wish it on anyone else.
> we all are a part of humanity and the wars will end some day.
Indeed they will. Probably because we’ll all die.
A man in the emotional state you described wouldn't be able to lead a company like SpaceX -- he would throw a tantrum when a rocket blows up instead of doubling down on perfecting it.
>So you’re fine with despots, but “man-baby” is where you draw the line?
I'm Russian and what's happening in the US government is your problem, we have our own problems. However, I have the respect for a man who has advanced the space industry so much even though it directly hurts my country -- in the end, we all are a part of humanity and the wars will end some day.
