I first misunderstood that something happened to Musk like did to Steve Jobs at Apple that the board kicked him out or something "Tesla is over for him and he is out"
That's possible right? He only owns 12.8% of the shares
Imagine that. A car company that can’t sell cars. A rocket company that can’t fly rockets. He’s only good at one thing… being a Temu knockoff of Trump.
He destroyed the market brand. All humans know you have to protect the name, and gather trust in keep the income coming in. Well besides Tesla and Boeing.
I don't think he is. He is planning on leeching so much $$ from American taxpayers, Tesla won't matter anymore. When SpaceX starts to fail, then we can talk.
Protests against SpaceX launches, after the latest disaster, are a GOOD way to draw attention to it. NASA had 2 Shuttle crashes and the program was cancelled. SpaceX' current megathing has had 8 so far, before even getting into orbit.
True, but aren't two astronauts going to hitch a ride home in one of his starships sometime this week? I'm sure I read that somewhere. If I was them I would wait for a ride from a more competent shipmaker.
We have to see evidence of it completely gone. Dismantled and burn!
I totally despise him more than Trump.
Trump is just a pathetic brain malfunction old man who’s only president on paper. The actual man ruling America is ELON MUSK!
‼️ Trump is only acting on Elon’s instructions.
He hitched his car to the wagon that ACTIVELY hates his business, turned his back on everyone that cared and created it, is helping to push legislation to destroy it, and then wonders why the bottom is dropping out.
That company is burning worse than one of its own cars and good riddance.
Tesla's are expensive. Generally speaking educated people earn higher wages (and are therefore the target market of Tesla). Educated people won't buy products from someone who thinks it's funny to "own the libs" by doing a Nazi salute. Tesla is screwed.
Also, the cars explode and are rated the least safe vehicles on the road. Nobody with two brain cells would buy one. Elon fails again with his target market.
And to think I nearly bought one 4 years ago. I am SOOOO grateful that I opted not to! I would feel so sick thinking I gave that Nazi any of my money! I will celebrate the day he files for bankruptcy!
Congrats. If i had a swasticar, I’m sure I’d develop irretractible vomiting that would only be cured by seeing it crushed in a scrspyard. Simply stated, i’m allergic to nazis
I appreciate the reaction to fascists. I too would be sick to my stomach thinking that I contributed to his rise of influence. So glad I didn't though. 😌
I'm kinda surprised so many people have them, the insurance quote I got for a base model 3 was more than double what I pay for my Miata and would have been more than the actual car payment.
Very glad we went with Chattanooga TN built VW id4. At least when I cared about supporting US EV manufacturing while avoiding the emergent Musk egomania.
Can confirm, really enjoying having made the switch to an EV, without going Musky.
And even though the id.4 is clearly not built for performance, being AWD and electric motors giving all torque, all the time, it's got some lovely zip!
That’s if his little rich buddies don’t save him and prop his stock up, but I think that once we see pension funds and other firms divesting from the stock is when the real big crash will come.
Also, thought I read somewhere that he’s trying to invest in Nissan now.
They would have to change the name. It will take a long time before the company is not associated with Musk. Poor Tesla. Screwed again by the robber barons.
I have to disagree. Elon thought Tesla was untouchable and to see the stock dive was unthinkable to him. He is trying to save it in his fucked up way because he is the richest person ever. Which means he can't be wrong. Everyone else is wrong.
There is a fine line between genius and crazy. He could be crazy but that it was some of that crazy that turned out to be genius. The other was just crazy.
Maybe I am wrong, but for Tesla and Space X, I think he has contributed to progress by questioning normal procedures and status quo. If that is defined as genius is debatable.
I know that's the myth that's been circulated. That's probably why he is where he is in DC. T**mp drank the Kool-Aid.It's time people start dispelling that myth. He's a very fortunate man who grew up with privilege, kind of like the guy born on third base who thought he'd hit a triple.
Was a small pool of investors. Not a single bank. Likely sovereign wealth funds in Middle East looking for favors/leverage. $5.5 Billion of 11% debt as a leash on Muskrat.
So at what time do we protest at 'elected' MAGA homes & remind them that they're complicit? That they will eventually be charged with treason, cheating, harming their constituents? We only need a handful to jump ship. The time is now ....
Genius. Here he is “throwing out the kitchen sink” at Twitter and the employees he just fired didn’t tell him it was a bathroom “sink” and he would look stupid.
That's how all these "billionaires" live. All their wealth is actually stock so they take out loans with the stock as collateral. It's how a lot of even "multi-millionaires" live. No actual cash... just loans against their stock holdings.
There is one of his repulsive monstrosities in my office complex. Black with red detailing and a huge "cyberbeast" decal on the back of it. It's the most ridiculous thing I ever saw. And yes, I absolutely judge its owner.
Trump’s claim the boycott is “illegal” is false. The supreme court ruled in 1972 that the first amendment of the US constitution protects Americans’ right to protest against private businesses. #TeslaTakedown #boycottTesla
We don't have to buy or like Teslas just like transphobic MAGA shot up with AK 15s Budweiser or made a show over Kuerigs & Nikes over racism & Starbucks over perceived anti Christmas Christianity. Hypocrites.
If the board won't fire him, the stockholders should sue them. They need to perform their duty to their stockholders. This is very clear what has to happen. What's fucking taking so long? He only owns 12% of the stock. He CAN be FIRED.
Musk doesn’t seem to care about all of the people he has happily fired and then bragged about it. He doesn’t care about the families that are left without because of the programs he has cut.
Me too. Sorry I came across too harshly.
Empathy is the struggle, yes, but my experience was the opposite- too much empathy, crying in grocery stores, because I felt the pain of others so my issue is in prematurely cutting off empathy & going to the mattresses, because I wasn't able to in my youth.
It was a massively-overpriced meme-stock, bouyed up by Elon's public image. Now that image is down the toilet, and the stock is still massively overpriced, and being boycotted by consumers. Not a great outlook.
They've seen what he's been up to better than anyone. Maybe a hot take, but at this point in the timeline -- in my kindest tone of voice -- fuck their wallets in the family picture holder.
Mobil Tesla Show room at the White House front lawn. Get em while they are hot.! I can’t stop laughing. The news cycle is a Tesla infomercial. Are you serious! Does Anyone else see how tone deaf it is to sell used Teslas at the WH while the market is crashing? It’s a Tesla clown car circus!
Well if he promises a clean energy vehicle he can manage the designs at like one store. I like varity in chasi body mechanics. What builds atrength against attacks from enemies beneath or an enemy from the next town over. Varity in culture. My car jiggling funny...... Elon sellin new shit today?
It’s cooked. Over. Done. I say that as someone who put a down payment on a Model S in 2010 and waited (almost three years) for delivery, thinking I was doing something good for me and for the world. That’s the only time I felt that about a car. I’ll never buy another.

Now do Space X - a complete waste of money.
This creep is a world leader at destroying businesses!
Tesla shunned.
X a cesspit people are fleeing in droves.
SpaceX imploding.
What a complete and utter waste of money these climate-wrecking billionaire vanity projects are.
Typical that it's never #Felon's money going up in smoke. Rich people always use other people's money.
And Xitter.
…go MAGA, go broke.
Currently, Tesla aims to produce "several thousand" Optimus humanoid robots in 2025, with the ambition to scale production to 10,000 robots this year.
STEAL
STALE
LEAST
Go, boy, GO!!
So, start boycotting SpaceX in every possible way NOW.
Protests against SpaceX launches, after the latest disaster, are a GOOD way to draw attention to it. NASA had 2 Shuttle crashes and the program was cancelled. SpaceX' current megathing has had 8 so far, before even getting into orbit.
These launch sites will not have many roads leading up to them.
Comedian online: You can't even afford 2 holidays a year to the Carribean. You think you can afford a retour to Mars?
Ask your boss: I need time off, for holidays.
"How long? 2 weeks? 3 weeks?"
You: More like, eh, 2 years...
They are in denial.
We have to see evidence of it completely gone. Dismantled and burn!

A$$holes drive Tesla Swastikars
Eh, just thoughts.
That company is burning worse than one of its own cars and good riddance.

#FuckTesla
I am having trouble finding empathy for Elon in this matter.
I’d hope for him to burn in hell, but I feel even Lucifer doesn’t deserve the torment of an eternity with that fuckwit.
Also, thought I read somewhere that he’s trying to invest in Nissan now.
😭😂😭😂😭😂😭😂😭😂
Thank you, God.
Then the blame for his BAD business management
And to all the Tesla owners who bought in good faith …… never deal with a conman who is friends with the biggest conman on this planet ……
I’m sorry for your loss
I’m wondering who steps in now?
Love what it stands for!!
However, he has borrowed against the collateralized stock value and makes loan payments.
This is why he is totally freaking out. The value is collapsing!
The Goddess O’Karma surpasses herself.
And Tesla itself (without Musk) is still a viable company & product
He's still above water. For now...
That's how all these "billionaires" live. All their wealth is actually stock so they take out loans with the stock as collateral. It's how a lot of even "multi-millionaires" live. No actual cash... just loans against their stock holdings.
I think capping political donations would solve a lot
Then Elmo outed himself as a fascist fanboy.
🖕Musk and Tesla.

Then SpaceX.
:rubs hands with glee:
The dip-shittiest product blah blah blah joke failed sorry.
I am not sure how this could be done, but we have an international space station and organizations like NATO so surely something could be arranged.
SpaceX tomorrow.
Everything else he owns soon thereafter.
Let's put Musk on Skid Row with a battered can in his hand.
