On a Tesla: don’t
Lawrence Lessig on Medium.com
Jan 29, 2024

quote:

Musk is a poisonous type that this moment in history has made increasingly possible. (I discuss the type in The Age of the Fantasist.) He’s a man of enormous wealth, surrounded by people who don’t tell him the truth, psychologically unconstrained by the truth, convinced he is a savior, and that the world can’t live without him. He’s Putin but without an army. He’s Trump but constitutionally barred from being President. His single obsession is to be the center of attention. Yet he actually apparently doesn’t realize just how embarrassingly inane his ideas actually are.

quote:

So long as Tesla is Musk, Tesla will fail to compete. [...] Tesla will be beaten by competitors in the market that it created—just as Ford was eventually beaten in the market that it had created. And for many of the same reasons: a driven, visionary CEO who, once successful, surrounded himself with sycophants, who themselves then allowed him to morph into the Nazi he became.

quote:

So no, don’t buy a Tesla. Or at least wait until Tesla is run by a serious CEO, one with a bit of humility and discipline, and one for whom making the company succeed is enough. Because so long as the company is run by a CEO stupid enough to believe he is brilliant enough to solve every problem anywhere in the world — from government to war to racism to whatever—the company is certain to fail to beat its emerging competition.

Fuck you say?
It's unfortunate that Elon used the r-slur in a tweet but also super convenient since it's a nice easy thing to show your Elon liking friends as an example why he sucks, rather than opening the Tome of Reasons

What could possible make Elon a Nazi? It might be he was given an emerald mine, from his Apartheid father?

I didn't bother to ask what specifically tipped him off between that, replatforming a bunch of the most influential neo nazis on the internet, replying to any tweet that confirms any sort of racial bias, and openly admitting he views empathy as a weakness.

That third panel of the first comic just makes it. It's still funny if you remove it, but that panel included just makes it top tier.
