Is Elon Musk hurting Tesla? (Mod Note Post #1)

Wow, that's some leap to make. Me not giving a shlt about the ceo of a car company is akin to facilitating a murderer like Putin. I take back what I said earlier, that is now the dumbest thing I've ever read on boards. Congratulations Teddy 🧸 👏

Shoot off an email to Musk himself,I doubt he's on boards.

BTW,are u not a bit controlling in not allowing anybody in your family to buy a tesla,do you have that much power over your"family",that's more scary than Musk tbh.

No scruples is the problem here. You literally can't compute someone's moral code to the purchases they decide to make.

That's probably up there with the stupidest comment on boards. What's more it shows nothing more than ignorance of people's choices and why they make them.

Cognitive dissonance....

A normal person would just say. Oh right fair enough that's your choice. Yours to make. I disagree with it because of x. But that's not what you are writing though.

Of course he is impacting the brand. We can see evidence of that in the States where he has promised to donate money to Trump, even though most republicans will never buy a Tesla or indeed any electric car. I associate him with that sort of spoiled and unhappy libertarian Tech Bros manchild that have become so prevalent.

Couple that with the terribly poor build quality, dated US sedan styling, collapsing resale values, and a glut of better cars from more established brands coming to the market and you have a very difficult few years coming up for Tesla.

Yada yada I don't pay for twitter and I was there before the fools hero came along and there when he waltzes off too.

I'm a coward how ? Because I have empathy ? I understand why someone may have a moral code and their decisions in life reflect that ?.

Are you one of those hard man idolises billionaire follow the masculine trope ones? This is boring fella.

Or he was always that person but just never examined to any degree.

He's now exposed himself buying a platform and making the entire thing about him, shows who he is everyday. Has the power to literally Pin his own tweets even if you block him

On no metric is he still good for the brand and I've said it before I'd be literally concerned for the future of Tesla vehicle manufacturing due to him being lashed to it. He's doing everything in his power to diminish it's standing with little plan other than nonsense harks to fsd and robot taxis or some other waffle.

He's being enabled by hero worship.

They're profits have spiralled though. Nothings changed. This thread picks up everytime we have more bad earnings. The reality of earnings haven't lied to date.

Whilst folks may not like it..nothing he's doing demonstrates longevity in plans for manufacturing. They're a cash cow for his personal expenses . Pump shares through waffle announcements sell secretly rinse and repeat.

Same posters... same Elon plan. Nothings changed. What's more is there's no real disputing that's what he is at. So we fall back to false hero worship. The 4d chess spoof.

Musk has a long history of abusing his workforce and banning unions. That is plenty enough reason to boycott Tesla.

He's arrived in the US capitol today to meet with and listen to nothingyahoo's speech.

A real cool character of solid moral ethically behaviour.

Ignore the past? Or wrestle that I had no skin in the game and nothing I do today will change 100 years ago..

I live now. My decisions impact people today and my kids into the future.

Unsure how that reality is hard to understand.
