I'm enjoying this. Also Musk went out and said that he wants barriers on trade or else the Chinese companies will dominate the market.

I thought Musk would be happy, because he truly wants to save the planet doesn't he? It shouldn't matter if he or someone else makes the best electric cars then?

Guess alienating your primary target demographic and trying to turn angry climate change denying conservatives into Tesla buyers wasn’t a genius move.

Yeah hard to imagine Musk's new right wing fanbase being willing to buy electric cars even if they're made by him.

The dumbest guy I know was going to buy a Tesla because he's a right wing extremist and wanted to support Elon, but he couldn't afford it. He blamed Joe Biden even though he retired early and blew his retirement payout on lottery tickets and cigarettes.

It hurt itself in its confusion... Constantly... Repeatedly... Consistently... Over and over and over and over again... For as long as it lived.

I really always wonder how these people manage to survive. Even breathing must be an intellectual drain for them.
