Sure, that’s great but it’s not even the point. Fundamental research and other type of “useless” scientific endeavors help humanity as a whole to better understand our universe but would never be privately funded because they don’t have any concrete and immediate financial benefits. This is precisely what a government should finance, because no one else would do it and yet it’s small stuff like that that make us collectively move forward as a species
Thanks for actually explaining it instead of downvoting me. Heaven forbid I’m not aware of every micro-connotation caused by the current depressing news cycle
Maybe. Apparently trump is already bored with him, and mocked him on-stage in front of an entire room full of people, just a couple days ago. I guess trump already got his money, so now it’s time to back-out of any agreements he made to get the money.
I think that’s just Trump’s insecurity acting up because Musk gets nearly as much worship from his fans as he does. Hence him trying to mar Musk’s reputation and knock him down a few pegs.
And here you’ve identified why they hate it. They cannot stand the idea that resources might benefit other people, resources that they could hoard instead.

Musk fans don’t want humanity to advance. They hate technological progress.
For OTHERS, yes. But many want the cutting edge for themselves, at no cost to themselves.
Where did Musk come from? I don’t see any mention of it here
The Department of goverment efficiency was Musk’s meme idea and Trump is apparently just rolling with it.

Musk will govern the DOGE department, won’t he?

Oh, they’ll probably publicly fund it for private profit
