    I understand completely why you’d want Elon to fail, but why would you want Tesla to fali?

      Because they’re not magically taking away his stock shares. If Tesla succeeds so does Musk, no matter what position he holds. Nothing changes when oligarchs who will happily take food out of children’s mouths to enrich themselves and send US citizen children with Cancer away never suffer any consequences.

      And that’s BEFORE we talk about the fact that Tesla cars suck ass now compared to similar segments from competitors. They’re a net negative in the industry and in their influence on humanity. EVs are going to continue to take up more market share worldwide without them.

      Endless government subsidies inflating the stock astronomically above any other normal car company, as paid for with American tax dollars.

      As a company, horrible QC and manufacturing standards compared to even the worst of their peers, and the insistance on self-driving tech that doesn’t even need to exist for their vehicles to function.

      Tesla is a shitcoin turned into a company.
