Cuba is struggling with devastating nationwide blackouts as the United States’ effective oil blockade strangles fuel supplies. But this crisis may also be accelerating a China-backed clean energy revolution that’s been quietly unfolding in the Caribbean nation.
It’s okay if people value different things. I am fine with you valuing different facts. What I am not okay with is debating values, that’s a waste of time, but I also understand if you disagree. However, its my own time to spend how I choose and I choose not to debate your values. Have a nice day.
I am not debating values, I am debating facts. I would generally agree that debating values especially when it comes to evaluating Elon is a waste of both of our time.
You are well within your right to not like the guy and he has certainly done plenty to deserve your dislike.
However, and this is the point I have been trying to make since the beginning, even if you don’t like him with good reason, even if hypothetically we both agreed that he’s a bad person, that doesn’t automatically mean everything he has ever done is bad. And that sort of revisionist history is my biggest complaint with both your comment and a lot of people who hate Elon in general.
If your position was ‘he accomplished a lot with Tesla and SpaceX but he is now in net negative to the country with how he helped Trump get reelected’ I would have very little to challenge that with.
But when it becomes not only is he bad now, but he was always bad all the time in every endeavor, that any accomplishment he might have had must be minimized, that’s what I disagree with and honestly you should too as an intelligent sounding person.
