On top of that, the astronauts never actually attacked Elon. The interviewer played it up into something it wasn't. (Not sure why Elon went along with it.) Sam

Sama reminds me strongly of Elon. Since the new economy seems to mostly revolve around hype I suppose they will be rivals.

There was this congressional hearing where Gene Cernan argued against giving SpaceX any missions, saying essentially they, as private enterprise, were incompetent and a disaster waiting to happen. “They don’t know what they don’t know”, he said (to which Elon rightfully said that this applies to anyone anytime). The difference, to me, is this: Elon really did look up to those astronauts. And what they said made him sad. Sam claims that he looks up to Elon. But what Elon says doesn’t make him sad. It makes him angry. Because, I believe, he also sees him as a rival and compares himself to him.
