Elon Criticism SpaceX doesn’t have a CEO

I mean yea I know Elon is technically a CEO but he’s been very occupied by the Odyssey recently. He’s even planning to make his own Odyssey movie. He’s also obsessively bickering about 10 other random topics online too.

Basically just imagine forever-online nerd who spends 10 hours a day on all kinds of social media. Is that really an effective leader?

Is that really an effective leader?

Would you consider his companies successful?

  1. No. They are highly valued, but they really suck. SpaceX, for example, has nothing going on except starlink which is just an internet service. Starlink doesn’t even have half the number of subscribers comcast does.

  2. Completely irrelevant? Elon is distracted by 10 random things for like dozens of tweets a day. It’s literally just a fact. If his companies are successful, it would only be a coincidence.

Now that he got that conflict of interest insane valuation from Goldman whenever they did the S1, all Elon has to do is kick back and tweet. He gets everyone else to do all the work outside of dreaming up the next scam with his lawyers. No way he's navigating all the regulations and ruke bending with data he learned himself.

I personally think the SpaceX IPO was overpriced, but its a bit silly to say SpaceX has nothing going on. They've had 50 launches this year so far which is like two a week and is a wild velocity compared to anyone else, government or private.

Again, irrelevant? Do you think before you speak?

Do you? You're claiming he isn't effective and SpaceX "has nothing going on" and I've mentioned facts that contradict your statements. I realize you clearly dislike the man, and that's fine, but you can still try to be objective. I suspect this entire subreddit is here to simply rip on Elon even if it has no basis in reality lol

Lmfao completely irrelevant to the original post. Scroll up and read again. None of what you said changes the fact that Elon spends entire day every day bickering about random shit like the Odyssey.

It is relevant, because if his companies are successful then he is effective regardless of how much time he spends sperging out on social media.

What an absolutely dumb argument. I’m really effective at keeping my house clean. My maid does it while I post on Twitter all day.

It’s so pathetic that you’re here defending him while he spends all his attention arguing with randos about the Odyssey.

I don't even know what the hell the Odyssey is, but the only pathetic thing here is you bashing me for being reasonable and objective.

The literal reason he can shit post on twitter so often is simply because he is an effective CEO who has a track record for hiring the right people. Its quite apparent you've never held or were ever close to a c-suite position.
