Good, the MAGA car company should lose value.
this is a dumb comment. most maga dicks would never drive an EV they're too busy rolling coal. yes the spokesperson for Tesla is a piece of human garbage, but the company is more than him. Tesla has been hugely responsible for the much needed transition to EVs. So hate musk, but i think hating Tesla is a mistake.
This is a very reasonable comment, and yet it's downvoted heavily.
What Tesla achieved is good, and will have a place in the history of EVs. Musk being a fucking idiot doesn't change that, it just makes it more obvious that none of the success is due to him he just happens to own the company.
Honestly, tesla would probably do better to fucking fire Musk as CEO. He holds less than 13% of the shares according to a 10-second Google search, so it doesn't seem like he has unassailable control of the company.
If I were any of the other large shareholders I'd be fighting like hell to get a better CEO. Musk has switched from asset to liability.
same, my hope is they'll turf him soon and people can less obliged to hate on Tesla again.
