    • Separate issues. Not connected in any way. That's why. :)monospaced
    • He is trying to fix the planet. But also want an exit plan if we don't. I think there are better people to punch.eryx
    • He's trying to make money selling you the idea he can fix the planet. Rocket Jesus.i_monk

    • There's no relative privation going on here. It's the opposite, where you don't think he's doing ENOUGH good, so you say he's a failure.monospaced
    • Fact is, he's doing something, and that's not bad. He never said he's fixing the planet, so why hold him to that? He's selling products and doing space shit.monospaced
    • You're confused, mono. The fallacy of relative privation applies to freedom's comment, not what you imagine Musk's motives are.i_monk
    • It certainly has nothing to do with whether someone is doing "enough" or is a "failure" at it.i_monk
