    Both. Easily. Musk's "cult" think his shit doesn't stink and he shits solid gold.

    "The Boring Company will work!" "So a more shitty Subway will work?" "WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

    Same with Starlink. "Satellite internet has had tremendous lag. You seriously think online gaming/etc. is going to work with better coverage?" "No, see there will be more 'lites up in space [ignoring space junk problem]! The speeds will be insane!!!!"

    But Musk is worse. Half his ideas are pipe-dreams. The others are fucking awful "engineering solutions" that aren't actually solutions (cave diving tubes)

      “The Boring Company will work!” “So a more shitty Subway will work?” “WORK!!!”

      The best way I could understand The Musky mindset is that it doesn't matter if it works or not. If it's harmful or not. Or if it even they like it or not. Musk made it and Musk will save us all by virtue of being Iron Man, so it's all a step towards tesla-valhalla.

      But Musk is worse. Half his ideas are pipe-dreams. The others are fucking awful “engineering solutions” that aren’t actually solutions (cave diving tubes)

      He's so fucking stuck in his late teens. But, to the world's detriment, he has the ridiculous amount of money to never have to deal with it.

        Musk isn't even Ironman. At least Tony admits his problems. Musk has engineers or train engineers tell him the problem with his moonshots and he either goes "NO U" or "PEDO!"
