    One small area of Texas coast getting a little bit of damage from some flying concrete and a big explosion is absolutely nothing compared to what oil companies, cars and trucks, and a million other polluters do every single day all over the world.

      One bottle in a river and a single use barbecue left in the forest are nothing compared to industrial waste. Thought 200000 people all at once

        And if the launch was trash, contributed nothing to the advancement of space travel, and wasn’t paving the way for new development, your comparison would be good.

        But since none of those things are true, your comparison is dumb and meaningless.

        I’ve seen a lot of people becoming anti-space just because they don’t like the crappy attitude of one guy in the industry. To that I say:

        Fuck you. Fuck you so much you stupid, braindead fucks. You’ll condemn our species to stay on a single planet with your idiocy, and you’ll be clapping and drooling the whole way down.

        I don’t give a shit if you hate Musk. He’s out of touch, spoiled, and doesn’t deserve even a quarter of the personal credit he gets. But leave space out of it. Not only do advances in space technology give back more to public than any other industry, it’s damn important work. No matter what happens, this planet has an expiration date, and we NEED to get off it.

          I think you could use a break dude. Dont get so stirred up.

          Im all for space exploration but doing preventable damage to the environment got us to the point that the one planet we are still “stuck on” slowly stops being habitable by us. There will be no space exploration if in 20 years we’ll all be running around fighting for scraps of food.

          Also, you sound like that “one guy in the industry”.
