Elon Musk: "We should really accept no racism or sexism in any form, no matter what it’s called,
If 'wokism' means judging people by race, gender, or identity - that's racism
If DEI means giving advantages based on skin color - that's racism rebranded
We need a meritocracy - where people rise based on talent and hard work, not identity politics
And free speech only means something when people you disagree with are allowed to speak”
@unclebobmartin What gets me about your shift: skeptic to trusting it more than yourself, in five years. The next jump is just as big. That same truck can earn while you sleep, driving other people around. Owning the asset that does the labor is the part almost nobody's pricing in yet.
As little as five years ago, I publicly stated that self driving cars were not in the imminent future. I was dead wrong about that. I am now a happy owner of a cyber truck, and I let it drive me everywhere I go. I trust it’s tactical skill more than I trust my own. Of course I still supervise it, but it sees more than I do, and its reaction time is much better. All I can offer it is my human ability to be far more strategic than it is.
Both men said “I can’t breathe”, but only one man’s death was covered relentlessly by the media.
The only conclusion that can be drawn is that the legacy mainstream media is incredibly, hatefully racist against Whites.
We go where we need to be, and today that was @NASAKennedy.
Some of my senior engineers and I spent time at @blueorigin with @JeffBezos and @davill, speaking with the workforce and seeing the damage at LC-36 firsthand. I appreciated the opportunity to hear directly from those working through the aftermath and better understand the challenges ahead.
There is a lot of work to do, but this is exactly why people choose careers in aerospace, whether at NASA, Blue Origin, or across the industry. The talent in this field thrives under pressure and performs at its best when solving the toughest problems.
We have been saying for months at NASA that we are not going to sit on our hands and wait for the capabilities necessary to achieve the nation’s most pressing objectives. We are going to take an active role alongside our partners, just as we did in the 1960s, to overcome setbacks, remove obstacles, and deliver the intended outcomes.
@NASA is committed to helping the Blue team recover, continue to advance their lunar lander and get New Glenn back to launching as soon as safely possible.
America’s greatest achievements in space were never the result of avoiding setbacks. They came from overcoming them. We have done it before, and we will do it again🇺🇸
