So they bought their Tesla before the company existed?

More they bought it before Musk went from occasional dog whistles on hate to being open about it.

There were probably earlier signs if I paid more attention, but the Thai cave rescue mess was my first red flag that I can remember. It was also an example of how even as a crazed person he could have kept a public image intact if he had and/or listened to a PR advisor before opening his mouth. But that's not the nature of such types of people.

Tesla was not founded by Musk

But Elon's been crazy before those other* two started Tesla.

At least someone got what I was saying.

Excellent gotcha, totally negates my point.

More likely they bought them before they realised what a douche-canoe the asshat was.
