I dont get why people worship Elon musk as a god or something.
He does not make these rockets.
The rockets are made by a large amount of very smart people that elon musk pays lot of money to.

Why are they not given credit and everyone just talks about elon musk, even though he does not do anything.

He's the CEO. Represents the company.

I guess that people just have to worship some specific people.
We can think of many examples.
Putin, Kim Jong Un and so on.
Instead of thinking about the countries, people talk about the people. Its stupid.

mankind is instinctively looking for a new narrative to keep it together

space exploration/AI/tech is a mostly embraced by first world males

spirituality/dimensions/energy is favored by females and people outside the 1st world

all the rest is joining the crypto bubble

This. But at least for this Musk, he have a lot of money and spend it on these thing. There are many rich men who do not spend their money in these fanciful way. People consider him to be some patron of science I think, which is fine for applauding even if he does not do this science direct himself.

I would be extremely pissed off if some rich guy gets all the glory from science that I have with great efforts made myself, only because he happens to be the guy funding me.

I will maybe be more pissed off if I can not make a living by do my science, because no man will pay for the labors.

Dare I ask what kind of science and what kind of labour that would entail?

He meant that he rather would get the funding, and not the glory, if the option is to get neither.

Yes. To get both is better, but just funding is better than no thing at all. For a man who makes rocket as profession, it is good for him that there is man like Musk who will pay for some men to build him rocket. If no men are willing to pay for rocket, rocket building man is very poor!
