Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX, X, xAI, and Tesla, posted a meme targeting Transportation Secretary and acting NASA Administrator Sean Duffy after Duffy reopened a government contract for the Human Landing System. Duffy said on CNBC that SpaceX is behind on Project Artemis, which aims to establish a permanent Moon base, and indicated he will seek faster alternatives. Musk shared a clip and wrote that opening HLS production to Blue Origin and other companies promotes competition and innovation. Musk then posted a meme drawn from a hostile 2012 Ugandan interview that included the phrase "Why are you gay?"
"Elon Musk is the CEO of several companies, including SpaceX, X, xAI, and Tesla, but apparently, he also has a lot of time to spend on social media attacking his perceived enemies. And his latest target is Transportation Secretary and acting NASA Administrator Sean Duffy, who has reopened a government contract to lead a return-to-the-moon competition, a contract SpaceX once secured."
"The meme is from a 2012 Ugandan television interview by NBS Television host Simon Kaggwa Njala of Uganda, who was speaking to LGBTQ+ advocate Pepe Julian Onziema. That interview - which took place as the East African country debated a bill to put gay people to death - was hostile as Njala tried to get Onziema to identify as gay even though he is a heterosexual trans man. Anti-LGBTQ+ activist Martin Ssempa later appeared in the broadcast and shouted at Onziema and misgendered him."
