An Elon Musk fan account said the SpaceX rescue proved he can’t be thick – 9 replies to bring them crashing back down to Earth
Like us, the chances are you don’t follow @Teslaconomics on Twitter but it’s an Elon Musk fan accounts which describes itself thus: ‘I post my conscious thoughts with the world, live life to the fullest, keep things simple, truthful & filter the noise.’
And we mention it because it leapt to the defence of the man himself after SpaceX brought home the two Nasa astronauts, Sunita Williams and Barry ‘Butch’ Wilmore who have beens stranded on the International Space Station for nine months.

The implication being – at the risk of wildly overexplaining – how can he be dumb if he did that?

This is “Kim Jong Un guided the rocket with his super genius” level of cult worship.
Elon did nothing to see the success of this mission. He was tweeting about immigrants and begging people to stop hurting his car company the entire time.

No he didn’t, you idiot. Engineers did it. The only thing Elon is responsible for is collecting profits from his businesses and shit talking on twitter.
