Every space agency creates pollution and is bad for the environment but they’re all making a compromise, you shouldn’t stay ignorant to this fact. And I’m not giving them the benefit of doubt but I think it’s unfair to use this point to criticize one company when all the space agencies are contributors to the issue.

I'm saying that SpaceX is not following standards that the other space agencies have established and are adhering to, so yes it does make sense to criticize them in particular.

I can’t tell if you’re doing a bit or so naive to think that any space agency adheres to any of these alleged “standards.” You can create standards but you don’t have to follow them, look at OSHA…

Find me a news article where a NASA rocket launch blew out windows in a nearby retirement community or how their repeated launch failures are strewing debris as far as the Barbados.
