"One particular point of contention for Downey Jr is Musk's obsession with Mars colonization. The actor didn't mince words when he stated, "This idea of, 'It's all okay because we've gotta get to Mars,' doesn't really hold water with me." It's a striking criticism that cuts to the heart of Musk's most ambitious projects."
Of all of the thing's Techbro has said and done, his fakey mars ambitions are a particular point of contention for RDJR? The nazi stuff is ok, but him pretending we're all going to mars so we don't have to care about Earth that parts the real issue? I hope this is just editorialized and out of context.
The writer here, rereporting another interview seems fairly Musk tolerant.
RDJ probably is too. But at least he's calling him on a few things.
You're right. It is, at least, something.
