Does he want to expand human civilization for the benefit of human civilization or does he want to be the man who made that expansion possible?
I can absolutely see real ambitions behind them, I just think these ambitions are driven by vanity (and other "vices")
- LooseMarmoset 5mo agoWhy can't it be both?
- steve1977 5mo agoBecause basic desires usually drive more complex ambitions, not the other way round.
- Sparyjerry 5mo agoThere is clear evidence Musk's original goal with SpaceX was just to encourage more investment into NASA. Remember it was started before Tesla existed and before Musk was a billionaire.
