Where is @elonmusk and his harebrained ideas to save the planet now? Surely if anyone has the skills to build emergency hospitals in temporary tents it's Elon? Oh right..https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1239031946962808832 …
To be fair, what Elon's really saying is not to panic. This is a reference to the book Dune, in which it's part of a litany some characters repeat to avoid panic.

I can guarantee you that
@izakaminska is well aware of the reference but I did like your comeback -
If she's aware of it that would worse, because then she'd be intellectually dishonest rather than merely mistaken.

Also to be fair his plan is to abandon the planet and go to Mars so I'm not sure why anyone would think turnng to him for real help makes any sense.

It’s amazing how many people missed the reference.

No one missed the reference, you missed the point of the response

Point is not about the reference. It’s about the flippancy he adopted since the beginning

You know, his Thai submarine was actually a submarine in the Grahamian sense.

People shouldn't panic in the sense of becoming paralyzed, but it is extremely important to be very vigilant. Fear has an evolutionary reason for existing.

Depends on your definition of panic. Overreacting now is warranted. Others may call it panic but they (like Elon) will look foolish soon enough
