Enough about this douche canoe, can he disappear from social sphere? I don’t want to hear about this guy rant every day for the next 50 years !
Which one?
Yes.
You hit it right!
No, because he’s rich and influencial and keeps saying and doing shit that gets him front page in the news. That’s the way the world works unfortunately.
There is literally an avenue in which we can put him on a rocket and send him to Mars. I am all for it.
I think we’d all love that. I genuinely wish the asshole would take a trip to see the titanic.
Not a problem, he will just sue everyone that did not buy a Tesla.
Stop posting US politics everywhere. This isn’t World News. This isn’t even news.
Unfortunately US Billionaires have a lot of societal impact outside of the US. They don’t care about the arbitrary borders that bound us plebians, they have enough money that the borders functionally don’t exist.
Don’t care. The real reason they post this here is US politics and not the effect it has on other countries. I’ll bet that OP is from the US.
Womp womp
Hmmm, I smell a lawsuit.
The only thing news like this does is to boost these idiots visibility and bring views to these websites. Don’t post this shit
You know that people can see your comment history, right?
Yes, do you?
Doesn’t hurt that they are also shit cars made out of melted down plastic from burger king kids meal toys and used dental floss and are prone to bursting into flames after “self driving” into walls or freeway medians.
Tesla would be right to dump this clown, but he ain’t leaving without killing Tesla first.
72% of stakeholder vote favored giving him a stupid huge bonus, even stupid by rich billionaire standards. This was after TSLA took a hit and their sales were down and their unit prices were way down.
Tesla’s all in on Musk. Probably easier to accept as someone who never did like their particular cars and if anything is a bit annoyed that the traditional car companies felt compelled to copy the stupid parts of Tesla when making their EVs. I can see if someone liked Tesla how they could hope to evict Musk… Just not going to happen.
The problem is that Tesla is a meme stock. It’s stupidly overpriced for a car company with such little production.
They could get rid of musk and try to turn it into a normal company with solid fundamentals but this would remove its meme status and crash the share price anyway.
There’s no way to fix Tesla without burning it’s stock price to the ground, so anyone involved is just going to try to ride the crazy train as long as possible.
Come on Elon, make the Cybertruck 2 and really fuck everything up.
No, it’s an AI company now bro. Trust me.
Exactly. What I don’t understand is how everyone knows this, but somehow the stock is still high. Somehow Elon is singlehandedly keeping the stock up while doing literally nothing to help the company, make it make sense.
After that vote I will enjoy seeing the shareholders should get exactly what they voted for.
That’s mostly institutional investors. I suspect it was actually a reward for ruining Twitter.
That just means their stakeholders deserve the financial ruin that’s coming to them.
They’re all his friends and family who Musk made very rich. They’re not gonna dump him.
I’m target demo for a Tesla. Upper middle class techie. My next car will be an EV and I actually like Teslas. I like a lot of things about them but I will absolutely not buy one while Elon is in charge of the company. Fuck that guy. He’s not getting any of my money.
Same demographic, but sadly I already bought a model Y cause I wanted a 7 seater with a 5 star crash safety rating…
Needless to say the car isn’t good enough to compromise on my morals moving forward and the next car will probably be that VW Buzz. That thing looks so fun.
Bought one too. I have a model 3 which I really enjoy and would probably have bought another Tesla next if it wasn’t for Elon going mad.
So sadly no more Tesla for me. Buzz is nice, as is the beemer i4.
I got a Cadillac lyric instead and I love it
Same. Upper middle class and work for a large hyperacaler.
Tesla was the only one excluded from my recent EV search. Loving the Polestar 2 so far.
Same here, even with all the BS around Twitter and his political views… I WAS still considering a Tesla, but with the pro-Trump PAC and the deep fakes on Xitter it’s just another level of bullshit.
Hoping he gets forced out in the next year because I also don’t want to buy from a dealership, which doesn’t leave me a lot of options for an EV.
The tesla shareholders just approved a 55 billion dollar bonus that a court had previously struck down.
Hes not getting voted out. This is what they want.
Presumably it’s “… worth in stock”, and might even have vesting periods. He doesn’t get that much unless the stock price stays high
Ditto. I have 3 requirements above the current cars though:
- Better range
- more physical controls, everything that isn’t media or GPs needs physical buttons
- Elon must not profit
Add “real steering wheel” to that cause that futuristic airliner yoke shit would absolutely kill me the first time I try to cross over to turn.
I won’t buy Tesla but to be fair, the yoke in the cybertruck is one of the few things that every reviewer says works great. There’s no crossover turn, the wheel maxes out well before then so you keep your grip as it is. Instead, the turn input is progressive depending on how much you turn the yoke and dynamic depending on how fast you’re going. They say in practice, it quickly feels very natural.
Media also. It’s super valuable to change songs with no fiddling.
The physical control is a big one. I’m not using software capable of driving a vehicle that’s made and controlled by a Nazi.
That’s good, because people really do conflate the drivers with Elon’s fans, and also with Trump. I’m one of them. Fuck Elon, and fuck every Tesla driver.
Same here, some friends of mine really got into car hacking with Teslas in particular and I was looking forward to sharing more hobbies with them. But at this point, I’d be embarrassed as hell to tell anyone I intentionally bought a Tesla, even a used one. And besides, if I really want the “sleek futuristic electric car by the dedicated electric car company”, Rivian exists (unless their CEO is somehow worse than Elon 😬😩)
If he is worse than Elon, he at least has the decency to hide it.
Rivian needs a Y/3 competitor. It’s over 100k for a Rivian in Canada. A Y is 54k, a 3 is just under 50k to qualify for federal and provincial incentives.
Well lucky for us they have the R2/R3(X) in the pipeline. Can’t come soon enough though, 2026 for the R2 seems like a lifetime away.
Yeah, I said that without looking up the prices for a Rivian and remembered why I’m not actually considering getting one 😭. The world just still isn’t ready for an all electric car manufacturer that is both affordable and not run by a manchild smdh
I’m actually in the market for a new car, and it’s going to be an EV, but Tesla is not on my short list. (not just because of Musk, also because I think those cars are hideous, and I really dislike how a single iPad is used for everything. I need some physical buttons, especially for the airco unit) Instead I’m looking at the Renault Scenic or the Kia EV3.
It’s hurting them in America, too. I used to own a Model 3 and I liked the car a lot, but I would never buy a Tesla again now and it’s all because of this douchebag.
Yeah, same. I’m in the market for an EV over the next few years, and Tesla went from the top of the list to the bottom in remarkably short order.
