| The memelords' circlejerk surrounding Musk needs to die. Can't take someone who starts by calling Musk - who made his fortune by taxing online microtransactions - a "rocket science genius" seriously. I'm not sure how much of this "self-made man genius made possible through the wonders of globalized capitalism and return to coal energy" myth people are actually buying, but it's absolutely hilarious and terrifying at the same time. The Nasa? Hubble, walking on the moon? Man, that's old stuff. LOOK AT THIS ROCKET SCIENCE GENIUS WHO SENDS GENIUS ELECTRIC CARS FROM HIS GENIUS COMPANIES IN SPACE IN A GENIUS MARKETING STUNT! AND HE MAKES GENIUS TWEETS AND LIKES GENIUS ANIME! Genius. I mean woaw, the NASA never tried to base their space program around refurbishing empty cans that are the least costly part of their rockets. Not genius. (Plus how many cans did SpaceX reuse besides after the marketing shlock calmed down? Noooot that much, I'm afraid) Japan is doing stuff a hundred times more useful by doing tests on solar propulsion and they don't brag on Twitter but whatever. |

| Out of all the anime that isn't Shounen it had to be that? More power to him I guess. |
deg said: that anime is about gambling right? no wonder he likes to gamble on big projects/business No, it's about living life on the edge, no feelings barred. That coupled with typical anime bulshit OverPowered main characters for no particular reason other than to serve the plot and advance the story. It's a very nice idea executed in the most puerile way possible. Probably why it's a such love hate train for it. If you've seen the first chapters, you've seen the manga basically. TL;DR Really cool concept, shame an idiot had the idea. |

| Does that mean our waifus might become real one day?? |
| Wow, didn't know people hated him THIS much. |

TsukuyomiREKT said: Wow, didn't know people hated him THIS much. Because of elitism from the anime community. Despite the fact claiming they are not elitist, many people here are secretly elitist. They actually judge people base on taste of anime but didn't do it openly here in MAL because fear of being labeled as elitist. People who like anime they don't like are seen as inferior and lack of intelligence by elitist. However, when anime they think is bad have someone smart who like them, it goes against their system of belief on taste of anime and trigger their insecurity hence the hate. |
| @Gorochu I guess @TsukuyomiREKT is talking about me. And I literally said nothing about his anime taste, so... *shrugs* It has more to do with internet mentality, and how memes and propaganda seem to melt the brain of some people. I've read in another thread some user legit claiming that the NASA should ask SpaceX and Elon Musk help for Mars missions because SpaceX had all the latest technology and knew what they were doing better than the NASA. Achievements of SpaceX so far: Sending a car from Elon Musk brand in space in a shit marketing stunt, reusing a couple cans in front of all the cameras possible in a shit marketing stunt (last time I checked, one capsule and maybe a dozen cans had been reused in total), posting on Twitter about anime and getting all the memelords hyped. I'm not sure in wich world spatial agencies who walked on the moon, sent the first men, docked the first ships, built the ISS, and so much more, should ask anything to that silly company wich is just riding on its funder's popularity. And the bit about "he's a rocket science genius" is kinda hilarious. He got filthy rich co-funding Paypal (basically, taxing microtransactions online, the lowest form of capitalistic parasitism at the world's scale), not by making revolutionary rockets or electric cars. But I guess the same people will tell you Trump, Gates or Jobs are/were geniuses. Lots of people are very eager to get scammed. For the info, the "genius" Bill Gates bought an OS initially called "Quick and Dirty OS" to another company, tweaked it mostly in favour of their own profit rather than in the user's interest, and renamed it MS-DOS. The neo-capitalist myth of geniuses getting rich through super-duper intellect and willpower needs to die, it's a lie these people have sold you to buy your respect. You get filthy rich by selling jews in a World War or by scamming people. |

| Wow I didn't expect someone as famous as him could wear an anime T-shirt. Cool, dude. |
| I bet you guys will hate Jesus too if he said he like anime. You guys are insufferable. I like how many people post that they don't care. |

Just get yourself a popcorn with extra salt topping and enjoy all the insecurities and conspiracy on capitalism. |

He got filthy rich co-funding Paypal (basically, taxing microtransactions online, the lowest form of capitalistic parasitism at the world's scale), not by making revolutionary rockets or electric cars. Wait, you're telling me he's a bank? To my knowledge though paypal was a secure pay platform and also offered small businesses (that weren't registered) a way to get paid directly from a website (banks require you to have an actual company name registered). Probably more, but it did fill a need and people were paying for it. You can make the argument that he exploited the weakness of others but that's just wishful thinking, people are responsible for themselves. More to the point, we're going to argue politics if we go any further and that is a game for stupid people to mash their head against and maybe understand that it doesn't matter apart from personal level. Deathko said: But I guess the same people will tell you Trump, Gates or Jobs are/were geniuses. Lots of people are very eager to get scammed. Fuck it, you got me.

Some people are just salty that their life suck so they envy the success of other people like Elon Musk, coming with conspiracy theory and blaming capitalism. Different space agencies have their own success. Elon Musk's SpaceX main goals have always been making space travel more cheaper, making space rockets reusable. SpaceX Achievements https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpaceX#Achievements SpaceX is saving a ton of money by re-using Falcon 9 rockets https://www.engadget.com/2017/04/06/spacex-is-saving-a-ton-of-money-by-re-using-falcon-9-rockets/ Not bad for a privately own company founded in 2002. Musk is really a rocket science genius. Whether it's China, Nasa, JAXA, different space agencies have their own intention and respective success. Just because China become the first country to land spacecraft on moon's far side doesn't mean they are better than Nasa or JAXA, vice versa. It's easy to tell when some elitist cherry pick information to discredit others. Nasa, JAXA, CNSA or Elon Musk and his SpaceX team, they are all genius admirable people who were out there trying create and achieve something unlike elitist here being couch potato watching anime, arguing quality of anime as if that achieve anything or contributing to human society and only capable of salty over others in the internet. |

I don't feel like this topic is about "Elon Musk cult" at all, few people called him a genius and most, if not all, of them seemed to be sarcastic to me. If u want to voice your complains about this cult ur not fond of, I don't think this is the right place to do it, u can literally substitute Elon Mask with any relevant figure in today's society and people would still cheer for it |

Why would he give himself title of lead designer if he’s not the one who create/ discover thing. He has a degree in physics, science is also his speciality not just business. He transferred to the University of Pennsylvania two years later, where he received an economics degree from the Wharton School and a degree in physics from the College of Arts and Sciences. He began a Ph.D. in applied physics and material sciences at Stanford University in 1995 but dropped out after two days to pursue an entrepreneurial career. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elon_Musk Elon Musk is a legitimate rocket science genius.I did a quick research on his background before calling him rocket science genius in OP. |
