these kind of shenanigans make me weary of telsas. there's no way elon's antics are contained only in twitter. he has to be cutting corners and making awful grease-fire decisions there, too.

Is that article satire? Or are they actually acting like this will be a sought after collectors piece for the future Musk museum?

Not saying you're wrong, but Tesla has entire teams of people devoted to managing Elon. Twitter was never structured like that, so the company was directly exposed to his every whim.

lmao xD imagine several people managing their tyrannical boss to stave off his company-obliterating wishes at any given moment. i salute you

Sir Elon, remember how you get after your dopamine dump!

This is probably the only reason I dont have a Tesla right now.

Teslas have their own story of shitty build quality and broken promises. He is cutting corners like crazy in PREMIUM models.

Also Space X just blowed up a launchpad. For no real reason.

Elon’s disregard for the consequences of his actions is not contained in any of his enterprises.

If you listen to podcasts, the two recent episodes of "Behind the Bastards" are pretty enlightening on this nonsense.
