The fact that progressives have decided to hate the space industry, probably because Elon is a prominent figure in it, really rubs me the wrong way. It’s regressive bullshit under the guise of a moral assertion.
Honestly I’ve noticed a lot of anti intellectualism from progressives over the past few years. You guys hate STEM, hate emerging tech, and hate people who work in emerging tech. While they stress “being informed”, all that really means is watching some 15 minute YouTube clip from a comedian pretending to be a journalist or reading an article from an obviously biased website, then adopting all the assertions as their own viewpoints.
If anyone disagrees with that worldview, they are ridiculed for being either morally or intellectually inferior. Usually there’s some literal schoolyard level insult thrown in. I don’t like the cyber truck, but calling anyone who drives it a “cybercuck” is the kind of shit I would expect from middle schoolers.

It’s absolutely exhausting.
