How do you know if you're talking to an Elon hater?
Don't worry they will tell you!

There's some to be said for the mean, absolutely.
Elon Musk. He carried a sink into his latest acquisition. What's not to love?
I welcome powerful, effective influencers who still have a sense of humor and the courage to take on a genuine challenge. Let the hand-wringing commence.

Well, Colbert is surely one of those haters. The guy never miss an opportunity to show us how great is Elon?!
And by the way, on July 13, 2018, Bloomberg Businessweek published an interview with Musk in which he promised to behave better. Remarking on his Twitter account, on which he had attained a new level of bombast in the preceding months, the Tesla CEO admitted he should probably stop engaging with his critics.
“I have made the mistaken assumption — and I will attempt to be better at this — of thinking that because somebody is on Twitter and is attacking me that it is open season,” he said. “That is my mistake. I will correct it.”
It took less than two days for Musk to break that promise.

I like Elon Musk for his help with fighting fascism in the world.
I don't really like his Tesla cars, and the occasionally strange things he says.
As for space exploration and your argument for it. You said we all die and there is no sequel. Correct. Ok. So how and in what way can you benefit from space exploration? You will never get to see the really interesting stuff that may or may not materialize in the future. So, on what basis can you care about space exploration?
