Elon Musk wants to be what right wingers think George Soros is but on their own team
The only way to stop a bad guy with hundreds of billions of dollars is a good guy with hundreds of billions of dollars.
Will Teslas be the Ford or the Volkswagen of WW3? stay tuned to find out
I'm thinking they'll be more like the Puch or Adler of WWIII. Maybe the Kodak or Opel. They're not gonna come out of this being a dominant brand, they lack the affordability and scalability needed to be a major part of the post-war rebuilding, but also lack the ability to make a viable military vehicle. Troubled Wunderwaffen at best.
I can imagine a Tesla MRAP or Jeep that's constantly used for propaganda, but never actually sees service because it doesn't work. After the war, I see the brand being bought up by another manufacturer or just fading into irrelevance. Supercharger network gets bought out and rebranded, and a handful of cars remain on the streets with the internet-dependent features disabled, sticking around in the used market.
it would be really funny if a bad software update just bricked the entire Tesla product line
this motherfucker's ego trip knows absolutely no limits and it's representative of the outsized and frankly unacceptable transnational power that the ultra rich have in our world
the fact that he's so outspoken in such a lowbrow way is actually pretty informative in a way... it displays the very nature of our so-called democracies in a way that's extremely overt
It is lowkey insane how quickly he spedrun "im the one good billionaire" schtick to just blood and soil afrikaner. The mask just fell off.
Critical support to Elon for being too egotistical to hide his influence
Hopefully he dies like Henry Ford should have
Ripped to shreds by the tiger he kept in the basement of his castle
Nah, that’s how he should have died. He actually died of an aneurysm.
heart attack gun this, havana syndrome that
if its real, fucking use it already joe!
Calling him a car manufacturer feels wrong. It’d be one thing if he made actual cars (fuck cars of course) but he makes glorified alienwares
The asshole didn't even invent a new weekend for us before going full fascist...
