Please see my other comment in this same thread. It's not like Tesla or Twitter where they're clearing slipping and releasing bad product. Look at the actual accomplishments!
As much as we on lemmy might look down on consumers of conservative news, I'm really surprised by how similarly reflexive and uninformed a lot of the comments here are.
So that obliterated launchpad is just normal, then? That empty star ship launch that managed to tumble in space was normal? SpaceX alway cheering and laughing when rockets blow up is normal? SpaceX dominates because they receive our tax dollars. Without that, they'd be dead in the water long time ago
One only has to read any current news about how mismanaged SpaceX is and how many problems they are having to recant this "we love Elon and can't imagine not having our dicks all the way up his ass" attitude about SpaceX or anything that incompetent, privileged little shit runs.
