Who else is tired of seeing the uber rich venture into space, burning all of that cash for a few moments of glory, only to return and tell us how marvelous it is, how important it is to save our planet, and how everyone should get to do it? The fact that this is happening while so many people struggle with rent, with medical bills, with student loans is the freakiest thing. It's the biggest marker of the gap between the rich and poor and it's absolutely revolting.
And if it weren't bad enough, Elon Musk decided to take Tesla to Texas, thereby undoing any progress made from companies bailing on the state until the government changes their punitive, draconian abortion laws. The behaviors of these billionaires just gets more and more unreal. Don't they have enough to do without causing so much harm to everyone else? That's the root of the issue, of course--you cannot accululate that much wealth without causing harm. You just can't.
