    I certainly gave him credit for longer than I should have. I’d say it stemmed mostly from a belief that scientific and technological progress will help solve a lot of large scale problems, and he seemed to be aligned with and guiding some of that progress.

        Which ideas? Like electric cars are a pretty legitimately good alternative to ICE cars. Ofc investing into public transit would be better, but that’s a social problem, not a tech one. Reusable rocketry seems pretty legit. Starlink does seems like it’ll be a massively taxpayer subsidized money black hole, though.

        I’d say most of the issues I have with the Elon are his social policies (anti-worker) and views.
