I think he is good at PR. Space X, Virgin Galactic, Blue Origin are all just competing for government contracts to privatize your money, using technology you paid to develop.
And if he appears as a hero, its because he may be the chosen hero of the Mega Corp era who will have us all vote to put an end to American democracy.
Which is de-facto ended because we just don't bother to do it. Too busy getting evicted from our rental homes.
Which is why the US Govt is happy to have megacorps buying all the single family homes, because when their middle class is fully cucked out and can be evicted from wherever they live at any moment and can lose their job (over 50% us jobs are government either federal state or local) for basically any legal infraction as matter of policy, we all have to STFU so why even have democracy?
Could be worse but the people we are trained to HOPE to make it BETTER have no interest in that. Thats why when republicans controlled both houses and the presidency, they did nothing, and when democrats controlled both houses and the presidency, they did nothing.
Working as intended.

Great post. Dude has been subsidized the whole way throughout his career, including $7500 in federal income tax credits on EVs we have on the books right now. We’re paying rich people to buy $80,000 Teslas
The man is a genius at PR and lobbying, that’s for sure. But he’s received more welfare than every poor person in America combined (hyperbole, but you get the point)
I don’t think he’d be worse for Twitter though. Iran’s government uses Twitter. They kill 1500 a year for political reasons by hanging them from cranes in public. They’re on Twitter but trump isn’t? Hypocritical and stupid.
Oh, and he’s giving his proprietary tech to China by building there. Not sure why he is adored
