Meh I dislike Musk as well but I don't let that cloud my judgement of his companies or science/engineering in general.

He isn't even the guy behind any discovery his manifold bought-up companies make. He's just the nepobaby failspawn of blood emerald mining company money in South Africa; and as far as I'm concerned, that makes anything that comes out of his companies while he helms them fruit of the poison tree.

We do not support, uplift, or patronize colonizers, slavers, resource-extracting thieves, or any combination of the three in this house.
