Im not praising musk, and i really think he fucked up his lead on twitter and tesla, but he is very much similar to jobs. Neither musk nor jobs have done really any of the engineering work, but both have had their hands in some pretty remarkable tech. Musk with paypal, spacex, tesla. Again, im not saying hes a good engineer, he hasnt done anything, but to discredit those companies is unfair.
Call me naive but i think even if he goes to push the button either someone else will stop him or the guy who actually launches the missile wont do it. AFAIK he doesnt have a launch button, but a “ok to launch” button, and theres a surprising history of people refusing to do so even when ordered.
Not to downplay the severity or anything, putin is a madman the world is better off without. Im worried he’ll continue his warpath, but not worried he’ll destroy the world if that makes sense.
I think you’re on a false moral highground. I used to be up there with you, saying stuff like this feels like the right thing to say. Its civil, its kind, and it has no place in modern politics. He is barely a human in my eyes. He lacks any and all compassion and will sell out his state the second that he can, and has done so before. He is a lying pile of grease and greed that has no place in the world.
