In shorttime growth in a billion company..this is poisioness for tesla..elon all te blame...reminder of history is bad this company must be wiped out

Gone from the coolest car to the most embarrassing, and these people are supposed to be smart.

As a publicly traded US company, can't the board of directors vote Elon out because of tanking sales? Seems like that's the only way for the company to survive at this point.

Does that still apply when the CEO is also Emperor of the United States?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

He'll still retain his shares. Which is the source of his wealth.

For my money I'm going to throw a goddamn party if this cursed stock hits double digits.

In a normal company they could, but the board are all loyal to him, not the company. Recently they insisted in giving him a 50 BILLION bonus, yes, with B. No chance they will intervene. And putting a puppet CEO like at Twitter won't have a strong effect either.

Dont know is a normal company...normal company growth big in generations like toyota honda volkwagen bmw..one life time there is a big bubble...also want to act like apple...propiatary stuf.. I dont mind tesla for demise

Cause everyone at Tesla is a spineless grifter too.

They are on track to be worth less than BYD, the two will likely cross over quite soon.

My heart pumps purple piss for fElon.

The only creatures that should buy a Tesla are from the fucking AfD.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I live in one of the Eastern countries and surprisingly most tesla owners I see on the street are from Ukraine. We don't even have developed infrastructure to use that car.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Because only rich Ukranians could afford them, and the rich ones fled Ukraine when the war kicked up.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

And those from the fucking UK apparently.

Very similar though - just waiting for them to elect farage to gut UK public services.

Lol definitely won't, they're super anti-EV after all. I mean, they even want to get rid of all wind power plants. xD

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

This is why I wouldn't put it past them to try to hide the real sales numbers. Wouldn't surprise me if they're down 90+ percent and the company is effectively dead already. The board of directors are Elon's creatures and their personal wealth will depend on keeping the facade (and stock price) up so they aren't about to cry foul.

This is what makes Musk's B-line towards Nazi stardom so strange to me. Like, did he think Nazis were suddenly going to start buying electric cars? They literally put nuts on their trucks right next to their bumper stickers using homosexual slurs to describe electric vehicles, all while "rolling coal" in front of every Tesla they see on the road.

These are the people you want to market to?
And at the expense of your existing market?

He's a fraud that knows his time is up and the only way out is through manipulating politics. That's basically the playbook of every grifter these days.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Musk isn't doing all of this to sell more Teslas

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I keep wondering how much of his behaviour has to do with his estranged kids telling him he's a dick as well as his Ketamine abuse.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Well, he stated that he wants to eradicate the woke mind virus, but I think that's all smokescreen.

IMHO, he figured out that the US is bigger than whatever wealth he may have hoarded.
