I'm excited at the start of this video like I'm about to watch the GTA VI trailer.. so many possibilities here..
Well that was a letdown. Just more internet creatures upset that their mickey mouse money has gone down in value.
Only Anonymous could make themselves look as lame as Elon Musk.
They DDOS'd him good and proper
What happened the last time Anonymous threatened someone? Can vaguely remember them doing something similar before but feck all happening.
They declared an all out cyber war on Trump.
In the end it took an insurrection to get twitter and Zuckerfeck to ban him
Anonymous did erm….Erm…
erm?
Anonymous
They went after Trump for sure, but didn't deliver (not that it would've mattered anyway since Trump would've just denied everything to his gaslit followers).
Lads, stop threatening Musky or your nan is going to get the broadband disconnected.
Hypernormalisation in video form. A hysterical nutbag freaking out that his financial worth declined because a venture capital memester is manipulating markets. Thus hysterical nutbag must seek self-worth by screaming to a room of other potatoes that they can't sell their meaningless financial asset to maintain said value.

Weak bone density? Beltalowda.
If anyone wants to read a book about the mentality behind the urgent need to colonise Mars (plus general feckery involving Thiel at al) I can’t recommend this book highly enough.

Even Elon knows how important attacking the space is. I always thought Boss was right.
That tweet suggests he is against attacking the space. Looks like he's trying to be controversial again.
what a load of horseshit
Founded SpaceX in order to attack the space. It all makes sense!
Boss is Elon Musk
Take a look in the mirror my brother, or do you not like what you see?
It's an opinion I suppose. I happen to think this is a far, far better one, from the guy who is probably the inspiration of all the recent re-interest in Mars.
Have you read the book I mentioned? What did you think of it?
I havent read it tbh, but I've read the reviews and summaries plus I'm aware of the strand of thinking that says being multi planet is a good insurance policy for humanity's survival (as well as the likes of Thiel having bolt holes in NZ). But I don't think the interest in Mars is necessarily driven by an apocalyptic view of circumstances on earth as the author appears to suggest, I think he's overstating it, if I am understanding the point right. There is a far more optimistic, and IMO interesting view from Dr Zubrin, that he articulates in that video (and his book The Case for Mars) which he's been advocating for a lot longer than say Musk has been building rockets (and Thiel has been building bunkers).

People complain about rich folk spending billions so they can have jaunts into space.
Rich folk so out of touch with reality think people are complaining about space and how space means hope and whatnot while the people on the planet we live on quickly dissolve and die.
What does any of that even mean?
Poorly written on my part, apologies. What I'm getting at is that people have been complaining that folk such as Musk and Branson are going off on space jaunts while poverty mounts across the world. And Musk's response completely ignores what the virtriol was about and instead tries to frame it as if people were attacking space.
I'm not saying people are right. Just that Musk is ignoring what their anger was about in the first place.
Ah. Ok. Gotcha. In the book he doesn’t try to claim that everyone who wants to travel to Mars is billionaire prepper like Musk or Thiel. He’s just particularly interested in them. It’s a fascinating mentality.
I’m sure there are loads of other, much more well-intentioned, folk with similar aspirations.
I love space exploration. I’m a massive SciFi nerd and think humanity’s push into space is one of the greatest human endeavours. But when I see stories about billionaires and the spawn of investment bankers jetting up into space whilst a pandemic rages on earth I can’t help but think we are living in dystopian hellscape.
Maybe. I can understand that although I think people would be upset with billionaires whatever they did.
Getting to space is expensive and from the perspective of the everyday person is always going to be. Even Starships best possible case is a cost of $2m per launch (IMO unlikely) which is stupendously cheap for a rocket, but still hugely expensive compared to most things.
Commercialisation of space is important for that reason. SpaceX are making money due to being the cheapest option by a long way to get things into orbit and aren't really funded by billionaire cash now. They won't be around forever if there's not a long term reason to go there. At the moment that's putting satellites into orbit, but long term that will have to be extraction of rare metals etc.
My immediate thought it wasn't fair to lump spacex in with the other apparently more vanity driven projects, because it's a proper business with a real purpose. But then I thought, so potentially is Bransons although the purpose is more boutique travel than space-industrial... It's not really the same game, it is very limited really. Bezos is the one I don't get. His rockets don't do anything useful yet, but he's funded it all lavishly. He's no less driven or smart than Musk. So whats he doing? Unless his leaving Amazon and this sub orbital trip is a precursor to him getting serious, spacex style.
