A man-baby is an adult man who acts like a baby, e.g. throwing tantrums when they don’t get their way and being overly petty and vindictive, not a literal baby. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Manbaby https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Manbaby It is incredible that I have to explain this and that that is the part you object to. So you’re fine with despots, but “man-baby” is where you draw the line? Either way, your objection makes absolutely zero difference to the point.

>acts like a baby, e.g. throwing tantrums when they don’t get their way A man in the emotional state you described wouldn't be able to lead a company like SpaceX -- he would throw a tantrum when a rocket blows up instead of doubling down on perfecting it. >So you’re fine with despots, but “man-baby” is where you draw the line? I'm Russian and what's happening in the US government is your problem, we have our own problems. However, I have the respect for a man who has advanced the space industry so much even though it directly hurts my country -- in the end, we all are a part of humanity and the wars will end some day.

  > A man in the emotional state you described wouldn't be able to lead a company like SpaceX Clearly you haven’t been following his actions. This isn’t new. See for example when he called a rescuer a pedophile or when he told companies to not advertise on Twitter, or a myriad of other instances. You can literally search for “tantrum” with his name and find more examples than you’ll know what to do with. > what's happening in the US government is your problem Don’t assume everyone you talk to on the internet lives in or is a citizen of the USA. > we have our own problems Including a despot. Which is unfortunate. You shouldn’t wish it on anyone else. > we all are a part of humanity and the wars will end some day. Indeed they will. Probably because we’ll all die.
