    Anyone else feel like Tesla is actually how Elon is being paid for being the one to make twitter fascist and the DOGE bs? Like the majority of shareholders don’t actually gaf how the company does and the billion dollar compensation package had nothing to do with Tesla other than it being the vehicle through which the payment was made?

    This is the same CEO who has promised “full self-driving next year” every year since 2018.

    This is just plain lying by electrek…he started promising “self-driving next year” long before that.

    Anything to distract from the fact that they’re a car company selling fewer and fewer cars.

      I’m not so sure that everyone holding Tesla is going to get what they deserve anymore.

      I agree they should get it, though.

      Tesla has achieved remote control driving. It’s the only taxi service that has 2 cars per fare.

        So instead of just paying a human driver for a taxi they have instead decided to use 2 whole cars AND a human driver. That’s peek efficiency there.

          Oh, there’s efficiency–just in the wrong place. He efficiently made a 4% bump in Tesla stock value by telling a few lies. That’s all this is, and has been: profiting on hype/fomo.

      Double your traffic congestion, or your money back!

      . . . or not, since I’ve never heard of Tesla voluntarily refunding anything.
