Rocketry, no, but Twitter, yes. Watching him go in and do the dumbest imaginable things, then make up excuses for his stupid decisions, then watching fans buy those excuses without an ounce of critical thinking… well, it raises a lot of questions in my head about his other ventures.
- slowhadoken 3y agoSo you don’t like his opinions therefore he’s dumb but he founded a company that designs, manufactures and launches advanced rockets and spacecraft. And you have no personal experience in aerospace. You don’t have to like him but do you see what I’m saying?
- sandofsky 3y agoI said he made the dumbest possible decisions at Twitter. If you disagree, please explain the benefits of destroying revenue by driving away advertisers. What I see is a mountain of evidence you can't argue with, so your only hope is an appeal to authority.
- slowhadoken 3y agoAnd around we go lol
- sandofsky 3y agoI think I asked a pretty straightforward question, but I’ll try to make it clearer: can you explain why a mentally-well person would drive away advertisers at a company he just acquired, destroying the majority of its revenue?
- slowhadoken 3y agoWhy would someone ask such a loaded and naive question?
- sandofsky 3y agoWhat’s loaded? Do you disagree that he drove away advertisers? Do you disagree that it destroyed revenue? Because I thought these were accepted facts. Maybe they’re facts that make you uncomfortable, but that doesn’t make them loaded. You believe he is smart. I presented an example of a stupid act. Now you’re supposed to explain why he did that. I’d think the only explanation would be a genius strategy I’m missing, but you seem to have trouble explaining it.
- slowhadoken 3y agoI disagree with your simplistic perspective. Everything you say is loaded and passive aggressive. It's typical. Frame everything in a negative light and then demand people give you answers then act aloof, obtuse, and intransigent. You're impotent. Social media is clogged with this kind of rhetoric. It's pathetic.
- sandofsky 3y agoYou asked me why I’m qualified to have an opinion. I gave you evidence to back up my position. You responded with ad-hominem attacks. That said, I’m still genuinely interested in what you find loaded about my questions. Do you disagree that advertisers left? Do you disagree that he was responsible? Do you disagree that this was a bad turn of events?
- slowhadoken 3y agoYou’re not qualified. Stop being fake.
- sandofsky 3y agoYou seem upset, and refuse to answer pretty straightforward questions, so I’m afraid I can’t continue engaging with you.
