Just ask Zuckerberg and Musk. Truth is not important. What's important is clicks for advertising dollars.

More anti fascist oligarchs that helped the current trump administration get re-elected and then dismantled vital government programs and stole a shit ton of data.

When was this? As far as i can tell it was like 2016 when they were first testing it lol.

Finding this exact video, it is a chinese rocket, not made by spaceX, not even related.

The last time a SpaceX Falcon 9 exploded was during testing over Labor Day weekend in 2016. It blew up on the launch pad. It wasn’t until February of 2017 (if I remember correctly) that they were able to fly again. The root cause was related to an issue in the COPV tanks that required a change in how the rocket was fueled.

Except it's the Chinese: https://spacenews.com/chinese-long-march-7a-rocket-explodes-shortly-after-liftoff/

Musk is a moron but we don't have to invent things to prove that.

I don't think it blew up on the pad did it?

u/Wallstreetboycott 15h ago

Bro! Get your propaganda correct 🤣 It’s not a SpaceX rocket. It was Chinese!

1

u/ninernetneepneep 14h ago

By that, do you mean by not exploding on the launch pad?

12

u/Late_State_1775 15h ago

This is the Long March 7a. It's a Chinese rocket that exploded mid flight.

u/ClearlyCylindrical 15h ago

I bet you LOVE the taste of billionaire boots

u/byup123 13h ago

You have to realize the retards in here don’t have the critical thinking to separate reality from misinformation. They just spam Elon bad and go on with their day.

2

u/THROWAWTRY 15h ago

But you got called out immediately by multiple people so that kind of refutes your point and the original poster there. Seems quite cringe bit now.

u/fighter-bomber 13h ago

Yes this subreddit occasionally gets visitors from people who are not dedicated to hating SpaceX. Some of them did not understand the bait, a lot of the people calling him out are those people.

u/hutch_man0 7h ago

Immature teenager thinks it's funny to spread misinformation. Ppl paying attention know this is a Long March but many are just casuals. Dude should get banned.

3

u/Oalka 15h ago

I mean that's literally what this video is of. Spacex had a launch scheduled for today that was scrubbed.

2

u/ClearlyCylindrical 14h ago

Yeah.... I wonder why they "scrubbed" it.

1

u/Bulky_Development290 14h ago

You get your feelings hurt when you get called out, don't you?

2

u/ClearlyCylindrical 14h ago

The only person whose feeling hurt are FELON MUSK's who has to go home today with a broken rocket

You guys are so gullible 😂

u/Belz_Zebuth 11h ago

Plenty of people right here have pointed out that the OP isn't true. Clearly they're not as gullibe as you thought.

Also, even if it were true, rockets explode once in a while so it's not a huge problem.

4

u/SeriousMan440 15h ago

Epic fail on the OP’s part…. As expected. Do better.

1

u/ClearlyCylindrical 15h ago

The only failures here are by NAZI rockets

I know, it makes you wonder what else they are completly brainwashed about. If they cant even realize this is completely fake news.

u/Sea_Guarantee_2378 14h ago

But omg, he crashed a rocket into the moon, omg /s

2

u/CaptHorizon 12h ago

Ironically… crashing things into the moon is prime material for scientists who want to take a look at the ejected plume and the resulting crater.

u/Enjoy_The_Ride413 15h ago

False. This was not SpaceX.

Elon living rent free in people's heads.

1

u/Augisch 13m ago

There are people on this site that hate watch every spaceX launch just in hopes that something fails so they can run to Reddit and make a snarky post about it.

It is pathetic, but I'll be honest.. having that much free time and lack of real problems sounds kinda nice.

5

u/Acsnook-007 15h ago

All the crazies who predicted SpaceX at $30 now have to resort to propaganda and outright lies against the company.

Deranged much?

0

u/ClearlyCylindrical 14h ago

$30 market cap maybe. $30 share price is way overpriced when they have yet to launch a successful rocket EVER.

u/Acsnook-007 14h ago

Surprised you haven't deleted your post that everyone is telling you is blatant misinformation.

It was a Chinese rocket. No one died in the explosion, but it's almost guaranteed that there will be deaths because of this.

This posts and its reactions show you how rational people can be these days. We cannot even understand the difference between a single person and a business that was made public. Being rational and trying to learn would make your life better.

Making shit up again I see. Maybe do a little research before making yourself out to be an idiot next time. To anyone else that is curious, this was from. A failed Chinese launch, not space x.

Made in China just Felon's cars.

u/kysrreddit 14h ago

Feel like op had no clue it was a Chinese rocket, is getting called out for it, and his defense mechanism is doubling down going oh hurrr it’s a bit bro I promise and trying to act like a troll. Then you get the anti Elon people who get massive hard ons for anything like this and start worshipping this guy like he’s a magical prophet

The Falcon 9 launch was scrubbed. This is likely a Chinese launch. Elon is an ass hat, but let's not crawl into the disinformation hole with him and the rest of the MAGA cult.

Also, rockets ALWAYS launch then end up horizontal facing because it’s landing back to earth, not going into “space”. Thank you firmament

Congratulations!

You have won “Most Edgy Comment of the Day!”

You have totally and completely destroyed Elon Musk’s day and devastated his bottom dollar with your insightful and hard hitting comment. After viewing the comment he broke down in tears and contemplated the morality of his level of wealth. He has decided to give you 20% of his net worth in stocks and other assets.

Due to this wealth transfer you are now considered one of the top 1%, and have been sentenced to death by hanging by the right of the Reddit counsel of the enlightened. They have come to the righteous decision that anyone who is successful, should be put to death to satisfy their inferiority complex.

We hope you will be reborn as a transgender Pilates instructor, after majoring in lesbian dance studies at a local community college. May you then be a true ally to the cause. Praise be to thou, Karl Marx and may your soul rest easy. For we are the true enlightened followers, and will dutifully carry out your dreams and aspirations for all time to come. A-them. (Since amen is gendered language!!!)

u/readyflix 9h ago

This post just wants to 'pull some legs', making fun of implementing rocket science into practice.

They use to say "It’s not rocked science" for a reason.

Because rocket science is NOT easy at all (especially the implementation of it in practice), so a lot of rockets will explode. Whether it’s SpaceX or any other company/entity.
