funny but make no mistake, the entire purpose of doge is to find funds to divert to rich people
This.
FYI this’ll prob get removed because c/memes has a strict no political memes rule
!politicalmemes@lemmy.world is a better fit
Guarantee that’s not going to happen. In fact with all the savings from the other more critical services being defunded, Elon will have more money for his own projects.
Which SpaceX subsidies are you referring to? Just the contracts they’re fulfilling for NASA and the DOD?
If that’s the case, which I suspect it is, we look really fucking dumb being so hyperbolic(or what would the word be here? I just woke up). Let’s not stoop to their level with nonsense like this, there are plenty of legitimate criticisms to be made.
Yeah. But how do we get off earth?
Since they started, how much money in subsidies found its way directly to the American co-president anyway?
Co-president? Elon is the only president.
well, the one that hit the news recently is that bullshit $400m ‘armored tesla’ contract for state department. the one they ‘oopsed’ and went back to remove tesla by name from.
Looks like that was initiated under the Biden administration?
The Tesla contract started in the Biden administration “to explore interest from private companies to produce armored electric vehicles,” a State Department spokesperson said on Thursday.
Tesla was the only company to express interest in the department’s request at the time.
Doesn’t matter. Musk must withdrawal his company from consideration due to conflict of interest.
Armoured tesla…
Was the cybertruck just a soft prototype of the TeslaTank© ?That whole thing sounds rather counterintuitive. Armor is supposed to protect the occupants of the vehicle, but Tesla’s crown jewel of armored* trucks has a track record of spontaneous system failures that put its occupants in direct harm.
*with glass windows and steel sheet metal that can’t stop a bullet.
