in 2018, Fred Lambert of Electrek threatened to doxx me for "death threats"

In actuality I told him to "play in traffic" because he was using his influential blog to help Musk smear a union organizer (with no evidence mind you) as a Union Salt. He made me beg him to do nothing... (cont)

... I was terrified of the career risks. This was at the same time Musk was successfully ruining people's lives, like @montanaskeptic.bsky.social, Skabooshka, + others

The media and pop culture behemoth protecting Elon Musk was unstoppable. Now I wear my old critiques of Musk as a badge of honor

Fred Lambert is a sharp guy, he figured out a few years ago that Musk was on a bad track and has done some well measures critiques of Musk + Tesla. But he has never apologized for his direct role in covering for Musk and his sociopathy.

I don't worry about Fred anymore because he's figured it out. would rather save my energy for people who somehow still have "legitimate" press cred, like Eric Berger, but are too dumb to see where the wind is blowing and take money to provide cover for a Nazi.

Things take time, and times change

I feel like Berger would have been writing von Braun puff pieces well into ‘44.

I feel like I've already said this to you but it's worth repeating that Kara Swisher being worth eight figures is an obscenity

I hated him since he thought linux was confusing and his company became the biggest land, water, and air polluter!

William Lyons smiles. He realised SS was a bad brand name in 1946. Musk doesn’t care about selling cars any more.

Love to see it.

He did it to himself. He could've been a hero. Lost his way. Now on track to becoming the most hated person on the planet if he isn't already.

He finished after Trump.

esghound.com•1 day ago

no he was never going to be a hero because his businesses have been a house of cards basically since inception. He was always going to blow up in a fraud scandal, now he'll be remembered as a Nazi too

His reign ends with him.

Just like Putin's. And Trump's.

For a long time you all were treated like unhinged cranks. In reality, you were all Cassandras.
