SpaceX’s Starship launches at the company’s Starbase facility near Boca Chica, Texas, have allegedly been contaminating local bodies of water with mercury for years. The news arrives in an exclusive CNBCreport on August 12, which cites internal documents and communications between local Texas regulators and the Environmental Protection Agency.
SpaceX’s fourth Starship test launch in June was its most successful so far—but the world’s largest and most powerful rocket ever built continues to wreak havoc on nearby Texas communities, wildlife, and ecosystems. But after repeated admonishments, reviews, and ignored requests, the Environmental Protection Agency and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) have had enough.
This is some real “corporations are people” bullshit.
No, that is referring to the idea of a corporation having legal rights the way that a person does. That is not what we’re talking about. We’re talking about the output of a corporation. Is the output of a corporation the result of the CEO or of a bunch of workers?
See, the fun thing here is that I’ve answered the question you keep rephrasing multiple times the same way. You just don’t like my answer because it goes against your whole claim that this has something to do with Elon Musk.
And you are doing everything you can to defend a company which is destroying the ozone layer.
You literally have not answered the question.
When people praise what SpaceX does, does that bother you?
Simple question, answer it, not questions that you insert.
I, once again, have no idea why this has to be spelled out for you, but of course it bothers me when people praise a corporation that is destroying the ozone layer.
Similarly, it would bother me if someone praised Shell Oil or Nestle.
Why is it so hard for you to understand that SpaceX is destroying the ozone layer and that is a bad thing?

Got it. And when Exxon ends up heating the world beyond 2 degrees C, then we can criticize them. Until then, criticizing Exxon means criticizing every secretary in their branch office in Des Moines.

That is a lie.
This is what I said:
Why you think you can get away with lying to me about what I said is beyond me.
