It's OK for Elon to use that word. He's just reclaiming it for his people.

Don't Americans idolise their astronauts anymore? I thought they were seen as heroes, even by the MAGAs?

He's Danish.

So I guess it's just some Greenland hate.

[-] crapwittyname@lemm.ee 8 points 4 months ago

Ha, fair enough. I should have read it properly.

[-] Embargo@lemm.ee 24 points 4 months ago

I find it interesting that he signed himself off as "Idiot".

[-] cheers_queers@lemm.ee 23 points 4 months ago

wait, they were supposed to be brought back this month at the latest, are there further delays??

[-] PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat 24 points 4 months ago

They're returning next month on Crew-9, which I think has been the plan since September.

[-] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 months ago

There was a slight delay from the original plan because the Dragon for the replacement crew wasn’t ready on time.

[-] FauxLiving@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago

So, the blame is on the company that manufacturers and operates the Dragons. Maybe Musk should call them out...

  1. We should not be calling anyone that word, it's an ableist slur.
  2. Andreas is not American, he's a Danish ESA astronaut who has been working as a liaison between ESA and NASA for the last decade.

I prefer calling them and Israelis monsters, but even that would be putting it nicely.

[-] x00z@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Well we came up with 'MERICUHHH to not call 'em that directly.

[-] bruhssa@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

Everytime I see Musk I wonder how your face can be come that deformed without having some kind of accident. Probably fucked up plastic surgery?

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.
