I don’t know if he even can. My experience with Tesla owners and people considering buying one is that they’ll totally ignore everything he says or does, because that would make their expensive purchase stupid, and people will believe anything as long as it’s not them making a mistake.

This is true for the folks already onboard, but it's getting much harder for "well, it's the only game in town " I know someone who considered solar city -even knowing musk is a gently caress up- for their panels, but they went elsewhere because other companies were actually functional and could get actual appointments scheduled.

The same way Nikola EV/0 emission tractors have already begun eating up Tesla's marketcap for industrial vehicles, because Tesla can't actually get a product to market.

I was recently looking into solar and the company I might consider in the future touts that they used the Tesla Powerwall for their battery backup solution but has an entire paragraph about how while the product is great, dealing with the company directly is absolute bullshit, and also has to explain why it actually costs more than what Tesla would propose directly since Tesla isn't including many additional factors and requirements.

tesla's gonna be such a cool collapse to watch. also it'll be funny to read the articles by the same tech journalists who spent the last decade sucking musk's cock about how obvious the problems with the company were

If Musk isn’t really an effective altruist (a la SBF) he plays one very well, IIRC one of the big drivers of his Tesla compensation is that he needs enough money to fund space travel for the good of humanity for it to be worthwhile for him

I get that the racists are just being disingenuous, but it's sad how many people are pretending this is a real point. It's because all the other categories result in immediate investigations and arrests, for gently caress's sake.
