Im no elon hater, im not an elon fan, I just think this car was 100% a gimmick car built to fleece rich retards.

1) stuff of 3500lbs does not fly around like that, as someone who's jumped a fair share of 500$ clunkers in the desert, everything in my body knew that car was a lightened gimmick the moment I saw it

2) according to tesla their rocket car version weighs 3500lbs and can produce 80,000lbs of thrust, just to get 3500lbs to 25 feet would require 80k of thrust, thats not including the kickflip or the catch or the landing

3) the high res pictures of the car doing the kickflip so some obvious ladder type structure which to me makes the car look like a purpose built shell

I have no issues with anything other than that, I just was like okay that doesnt seem right the instant I saw it

By all means willing to hear any technical argument of how this is possible with a full weight car, and fully willing to eat my words

Oh and ive seen some people claim both flip cars had people driving them, I also seriously doubt this claim and the car the rolled up on stage was a different car

Another increase of price for the official SpaceX terrestrial mobility unit. 🤭

Bro, some people on this sub talk about Elon Musk like he personally descended from the heavens carrying a Falcon 9 in one hand and the future of humanity in the other.

SpaceX has a successful launch? “ELON DID IT.” Engineer solves an insanely complicated problem after ten years of work? “Elon’s genius is unmatched.” Elon posts three words on X? Suddenly we’ve got 200 comments analyzing it like archaeologists just discovered a lost chapter of the Bible.

Some of y’all defend this man with more passion than you’d defend your own family. He could announce the CyberToaster for $8,000, and somebody here would be explaining how conventional bread technology was holding civilization back. You can appreciate SpaceX without acting like Elon personally designed every bolt, welded every rocket, wrote every line of code, and then carried Starship to the launchpad on his back.

He does not know you exist, brother. You do not have to throw yourself in front of every mildly critical Reddit comment like you’re taking a bullet for the king. Please. Stand up. Dust off your knees. Get a hobby. The Mars colony will survive without your unpaid PR services.

Has anybody noticed that the replies in this subreddit as of today turned markedly right wing and emphatically pro elon. Most of the comments on every thread in this subreddit we're rational about how terrible the stock is and what a fraud Elon is. Seems like they just got their tesla stock pumping bot army up and running for SpaceX. It might just be a coincidence but it really seems drastic.

It's hysterical because the closest thing Elon has to a working robot is a Twitter army of stock pumping bots.

Down vote if you're a salty bag holder. But I want you to think about how the stock is going down when you hit that down arrow lol

Suddenly, as His Empire Crumbles, Elon Musk Admits He Made a Huge Mistake With DOGE

He apparently "got carried away, frankly."

We all know musk has major pull because of his net worth. He is trying everything to keep spcx afloat. Every news report is talking about high short interest. Why do you think that is? He's trying to make the public cause a short squeeze. He's letting all the shorts take the fall to save himself. Let him crash and burn.

Everyone said the stock would crash to $50-$80 today because of all the shares that got unlocked. Why isn’t it crashing?!? I shorted with my life savings expiring tomorrow. Do you guys think that insiders will hold because they believe it is a deeply valued company? I hate this space trash. My wife is going to kill me when she finds out.

While you all sit in your mother's basement complaining on the internet, Elon is sending rockets into space. What a sad contrast that is. He is successful, and you are not. He has done things to change the world and you just leech from the system.

It would be interesting. You all have all these problems in your lives. I wonder what would happen if you guys quit blaming other people for your problems, and actually made some constructive moves in your lives? What would happen?

But sure, go drive your Tesla, profit off your Space X stock, and hook up to the Starlink while actively complaining he is some Nazi.

Y'all need help.

Given humanity's extensive historical accomplishments, are we going to passively observe certain brainfucked multi billionaires destroy the humanity?

Why is almost every post communists,NIMBYs or snark?

Never have I ever seen a sub filled with this much small minded, hateful jealousy.

You hate Elon Musk because he's rich and you're not. You're jealous.

But being honest with yourself is hard, so you convince yourself that you hate him because he's "greedy" or "evil" (it's easy to tell yourself that YOU would use your powers for good when you don't have any yourself, huh?).

You would be just as selfish if you had his wealth and influence, but you pretend you're better to feel good about yourself.

So you gather in circle jerks to hate a man who has accomplished more than you could ever imagine. Small minded people. Filled with hate and jealousy. Trying to tear down others because you can't lift yourselves up.

Take a good look in the mirror and ask yourself if you are happy with what you see.

This will upset the Comrades in the comments. Let’s see who can crash out with the most unique combination of “Nazi” “Fascist” and “Pedo”.

if they don’t market out of their shares and take it down to a few dollars a share they are fucking Nazi scum for investing so gross in that way it hurts

Just to be clear I’m not a fan of his. He’s not exactly all there. But so soooo many other CEOS. Half of your portfolio isn’t white gloves material. We’re here because we’re capitalist fan boys. Going forward anyone has something dumb to say about the person must show their short position or get banned.
