What portion of the twitter horde are bots?

More broadly, why do people worship Musk, of all people? What's the motivating drive? It's really lost me.

I guess that's where the disconnect occurs for me, as someone relatively familiar with a lot of the different cultural and methodological trappings of science. Musk is so completely at odds with even the most primitive notions of what science is that I don't see how even the completely moronic could worship him as an avatar of techie brilliance. Even the i loving love science poo poo has some closer bearing on reality, some distant attachment to inflated empiricism, than musk.

Muskovites : Elon Musk :: Trump : internet chuds

Does that work? He succeeds due to "merit", so I identify with him (despite being an unimaginable mediocrity), so attacks on him are an attack on me?

found this new explanation for the no-rail-at-the-factory

it's an angle I hadn't heard or thought of but if it's true is there some low level of trains where it's not worth running them? (also surely someone else would have unearthed the minutes from these local meetings with the number of twitter gumshoes)

That's...not a great angle. Companies, competent ones at least, know how to circumvent NIMBY ordinances and policies. It's...not a very complicated process to subvert ordinances and municipal government.

edit: not that doing so is good, of course! the inability to maintain some sort of zoning plan is the wellspring of an often underestimated proportion of harm and inequality in the US. But, I mean, companies know how to do it.

yeah all those people holed up in connecticut who spend 2 hours each way on the train to ny because of the good schools back home are normal but someone in california who does the same thing is a crazy weirdo

let's not also forget all the white flight exurbs around dc/baltimore

The traffic and land use planning in those areas is positively symphonic compared to California. You citing a train ride example's actually...a pretty big part of that. Maryland's got white flight suburbs, absolutely- but they've also got some of the most muscular, independent zoning boards in the country, because of how MD political power is shifted heavily to the county level.

Whatever can be said for Tesla, their cars cannot be mistaken for spaceships.

Tragically, Tesla's products are all too often mistaken for cars.

The more I learn about him the more I realize he is exactly like Trump. The only real difference between them is that he sells himself to ignorant tech fetish nerds instead of ignorant insecure racists.

That venn looks more and more like a circle over time. tbh I'd say the only real difference is Musk is still relatively lucid and competent. Relatively.
