That’s the spirit! Let this become a trend. Let Musk become what he fears the most: a genuine laughing stock.

    I rented a car recently and spent $20 per day extra in order to avoid getting a Tesla. I got a Chevy bolt instead

    I don’t have a Tesla but it has honestly become hard for me to get excited about the incredible things SpaceX is doing.

    He’s poison for every company he touches.

    Twitter used to be somewhat fun & useful. Now it’s absolutely garbage.

    SpaceX is doing great things, but the fact they he gets credited for their accomplishments & innovations casts a dark shadow over all of it.

    Tesla could have been the next great American automaker, but with him at the helm it’s hard to justify buying one.

      SpaceX is not doing well. They are taking money for a moonshot that according to their own data will take 37 flawless refueling launches in a month to get the fuel up to the craft that will go to the moon. They are a space elevator company that charges more than the Russians charge.

      My guess is that they are more than 15 years away from lunar trip without even a landing.

    “I bought this before Elon went crazy”

    No, no you didn’t, he was just better at hiding it. But now that you’re all caught up, glad to see you’re doing the bare minimum.
