      The man has a talent like no one else I’ve ever seen for having absolutely everything he touches crumble instantly into dogshit. A Mierdas Touch, one might say.

          Tesla 100% is and could not have been squandered more effectively if you showed up wanting to do so. They were THE EV marketplace powerhouse, now they’re a laughing stock and the stock price is only held up by Musk’s political interference.

          SpaceX isn’t actively managed by Musk at all and it shows. Legend says they have a team of employees specifically dedicated to running interference when he shows up, which I believe, because they don’t actively shoot themselves in the foot constantly.

            What on earth are you talking about?

            Tesla is about the only company that actually makes money selling EVs.

            The stock price has increased about 100% over the last year.

            The all time high of the stock was literally 4 days ago…

              Their position in the market is not reasonable. They make trash cars that break, can’t be repaired anywhere except their special shop, cost half again as much as competitors and don’t do what they advertise. Tesla lies to their customers (via Musk, primarily) on a constant basis. Their cars are dangerous and feature obvious oversights that every other EV manufacturer has solved.

              Despite all this Tesla’s market value is $1.2 trillion and their next competitor, BYD Co is valued at $106 billion. That gap is insane. Tesla is artificially inflated.

              The all time high of the stock was literally 4 days ago…

              Hmm… I wonder what could have happened to cause this… Maybe some major event that people keep making memes about…

                You stated that everythibg Elon touches goes to shit.

                I showed that’s objectively false.

                I’m no tesla or Elon fan at all but I can recognize that the man has abilities to get things done even if he is a major douchebag.

      Like being the CEO of one of the only companies that’s managed to make electric cars profitable while also being the CEO of the first company to ever reuse space rockets and boosters…

      I don’t like him as a person but I can recognise that he’s a pretty remarkable CEO.
