This is part of a broader rolling catastrophe. Musk is evidently seizing control of the Office of Personnel Management

Nasa took down their applied sciences page and is evidently scrubbing the data

Lots of other data sets are disappearing too:

There is active discussion of this at https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/

At this point, being a Musk supporter is nothing to be proud of.

Indeed it is, but maybe is time that we detach a person from their proposals. I wonder how that would be achieved.

Because why would you want to judge someone by the quality of their ideas?

I beg your pardon? I mean more in that we stop following a personification of an idea and start vote in a project itself.

It's more a way for people to start see politics in the medium long term.
