I like how chopsticks catch (a very impressive feat) completely distracts everyone from totally fucked timeline and already spent budget on mars mission. Its like any criticism is being drowned in loud cheers. Only time will tell, but I hope I will be wrong on this one

I actually get this take, but for me it's the ultimate distraction and a way to legitimize the CEOs rubbish behavior.

"How can he be wrong when he is a genius and can land a rocket in two chopsticks?"

I’m in a slightly different boat. The CEO’s rubbish behavior sucks, but the company shouldn’t be diminished by that. The people behind SpaceX are a modernd day Apollo Program. Absolute marvels of engineering.
