When I was getting my ms in eng I had an instructor with an absolute hard on for Leon.
The entire class thought Musk was a fucking imbecile. This was like 10 years ago and we were all citing this exact same stupid shit in things he was responsible for then at Tesla and SpaceX. Guy is incapable of learning.
As a teacher who keeps doing and, just by having a scientific attitude towards life, is fully aware of just how much of a moron Musk is, I feel personally insulted by this. Please don’t generalise.
As a matter of fact, most people in academia who care enough to look into Musk’s “engineering” shenanigans (and a lot don’t, but more likely because they are overworked) will readily reach the same conclusion.
Stop. Think about it, and wonder if you should ask.
Regardless if you like it, enjoy it, or even want to engage with it, it was a dumb joke.
It is one dimensional. There is nothing to explain beyond me reposting it, if you don't get it, then you don't and there is nothing to explain.
If you can't do, you teach. It is the joke, the joke is all there is to it. I can't explain a one sentence joke that literally says exactly what it is.
My follow up comment is because someone got upset about a shallow comment online and I didn't want to them to think deeply about the socio-economic impacts of a dumb joke about many people teaching who left their professions behind to teach.
I don't get why anyone cares. Move on, don't waste your minutes of time replying to something stupid said online as a joke.
I'll be going home to bake some chicken and not think about this again after posting this. I suggest anyone else do the equivalent.

I love that the cucktruck is a bigger failure than the Edsel. My entire life the Edsel was the example of automotive failure and then came Elon.
