      A lot of people get off on hating musk, they only really want an excuse at this point. Like the very upvoted comment ‘I don’t care if it’s outputting pure spring water’.

      Nobody would care about this at all if it was any other company. ‘Company erodes county owned ditch without proper permit with water that would meet drinking water standards if you dilute it by half’. But people enjoy getting mad at musk so it gets clicks and upvotes. And of course this and every other comment that isn’t saying musk should be hanged for this will be downvoted because nuance is dead and if you’re not jerking off in the circlejerk you must support musk and everything he has ever done.

      There is not so much of a shortage of real problems in the world that some permitting issue over a ditch in texas deserves global attention.

          exactly the type of missing the point that I was talking about *

          And of course nuance is dead and if you’re not jerking off in the circlejerk you must support musk and everything he has ever done.

          I just wish the musk circlejerk stayed in /c/enough_musk_spam. I’m not obsessed with him so I don’t care about his texas drainage permits any more than anyone else’s county drainage permits.

          *Ironic because I missed/ignored theirs.

            Are you trying to say that Elon Musk isn’t an avowed Nazi? Prevarication is not the same thing as nuance.
