Dit was zonder enige twijfel het absolute hoogtepunt van het verhoor van Anthony Fauci.
Eentje om in te lijsten. Zelden heb ik iemand verbaal zo afgestraft zien worden.

Cathie Wood just explained why the establishment will never stop coming for Elon Musk.
And the reason is worse than they think.
Wood: “Tesla was an environmental move, which I think a lot of people attacking his cars… they’ve forgotten.”
They didn’t forget. You don’t forget thirty years of marching and petitioning and begging for the machine that saves the planet.
Someone built it. Forced every automaker on Earth to follow.
Then they turned on him the moment he delivered exactly what they asked for.
Not because he failed them. Because he made them unnecessary.
A solved problem is an existential threat to every institution built to solve it. Kills the funding. Kills the committee. Kills every career that exists to manage the crisis rather than end it.
Wood: “I think he’s the Thomas Edison of our age… he wants to do the right thing to transform the lot of most of humanity.”
Edison was hated too. By the people who sold candles. Every revolution looks like an attack to the people it makes obsolete.
Wood: “What we learn about material science and technologies… is going to help us here on Earth as well.”
SpaceX is not an escape. It is a forge. Build under the most brutal conditions in the solar system and every breakthrough comes home.
Most people at his level stop building and start protecting what they have.
Musk picks the hardest unsolved problem on Earth and runs straight at it.
That is not what terrifies them. What terrifies them is he does it without their funding, without their approval, without a single thing they can hold over his head.
A man you cannot buy is a man you cannot control. And a man you cannot control who keeps solving the problems you profit from is the most dangerous human alive.
They will spend their careers trying to tear him down.
Their grandchildren will live in the world he built anyway.
Potverdorie @lidewij_devos laat geen spaander heel van Laura Bromet van @progressiefned die duidelijk geen idee heeft waar ze over praat, maar helaas als politica wel iets in de melk te brokkelen heeft. Da's gevaarlijk want haar drijfveer is ideologie, niet wetenschap.
@KostonsJo98437@hansvantelling Helemaal mee eens Jo. Al blijf ik van mening dat we weinig invloed hebben op het klimaat maar des te meer op hoe we mer het milieu omgaan. Dat laatste zou de prioriteit dus moeten hebben.
@KostonsJo98437@hansvantelling Ja mooi hè die klimaatverandering. Dat veranderd al zo lang de aarde bestaat. Gelukkig is hij momenteel groener dan ooit. Proost 🍻
Was die meisten schon wieder vergessen haben:
2021 hat Elon Musk den Vereinten Nationen angeboten, für die Beendigung des Welthungers mit dem Verkauf eines Teils seiner Tesla-Aktien zu zahlen.
Die einzige Bedingung: Die Vereinten Nationen legen transparent offen, wie genau dieser Betrag den Welthunger beenden würde und wie die Mittel eingesetzt werden.
Natürlich haben die Vereinten Nationen das Angebot nicht angenommen. Sie hätten nämlich erklären müssen, wie es sein kann, dass seit den 1950er Jahren 2 BILLIONEN DOLLAR an „Entwicklungshilfen“ nach Afrika geflossen sind, sich aber in all den Jahren nichts zum Besseren entwickelt hat.
Das Problem ist nicht Elon Musk.
Das Problem sind korrupte Politiker, die dir sagen, dass Elon Musk das Problem wäre.
Remember when SpaceX was “a joke,” Tesla was “going bankrupt,” and buying Twitter was the “worst deal ever”?
Now SpaceX dominates space, Tesla leads EVs, and X shapes global conversation.
Skeptics never learn.
