Save 56 billions and tell Musk to fuck off? What’s the catch?
The catch is that Tesla has a bunch of problems that might cause the company to be in serious trouble soon, and if musk leaves before the company starts tanking then we’ll have to hear endless bullshit from people about how musk was so great that he single handedly was what kept the company going.
It’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make it that means musk is given a “fuck off” instead of 56 billions.
His other ventures will show he’s not the Tony Stark level genius some thought years ago, so it’s a temporary problem anyway.
Right! Where’s the downside?
Without musky boy the Tesla hype would die and hype is the biggest money maker at Tesla. Yep, you’re right, pretty much no downsides.
Musk being at the helm is 50% of the reason a lot of people won’t even consider buying a Tesla. Boneheaded engineering decisions he dumped on the engineers are the other 50%. Replacing the hype with decent cars would be a win for everybody not named Musk.
You get permabanned from that one right wing hellhole social media network, whatever they call it nowadays
Edit: was it 3? No, maybe Y? S? I swear it had something to do with a Tesla model
Oh no, I’ll lose all my followers on cybertruck!
I loved your joke and was excited to share it with my wife… who didn’t get it lol
Did you wake her up from laughing so hard? :^)
I have been so fucking disappointed since I learned their naming scheme for car models. It’s so intensely sophomoric.
“Their”? No, it’s literally just Elon forcing his childish sense of humor on the world.
I am the tiniest bit less annoyed since the Y was announced. For a while I thought he literally just thought the word “sex” was funny or something.
He just went from S3X to S3XY. It’s the same joke but… well, the same. Models H and O likely to be announced as part of his pay package.
tbh S3XHOY fucks
When I was using that failed platform Reddit, I got permabanned from a Elon Musk sub because the mods read some anti-Musk comments I made IN OTHER SUBS. Talk about a clusterfuck. Hey hey ho ho, Phony Starck has got to go!!!
nearly all my bans when I was on reddit were from posts on other subs on reddit. Libertarian banned me for a post in antiwork I think, lol.
If he left, the stock would bounce up 20%. Put an engineer at the head and start producing decent model 3, Y. Work on reaching 25k MSRP. I’m sure there’s bottlenecks and inefficiencies that could get them there.
Tesla stock is worth more than most other car companies combined. Musk’s genius is knowing how to pump stock. The company would do much better without Musk, but the stock would tank. No one else is willing to lie, cheat and sacrifice safety like Musk to keep the stock high.
I can certainly see that argument, but I’d counter that eventually the Musk bubble will pop and that day is coming like a freight train. Better to ditch him now while they can than suffer the cost of keeping him.
I agree, the stock will tank eventually. I just think it would be immediate if Musk left.
Shareholders don’t actually care about long term viability as long as they can sell before everything goes to shit.
Tesla is in the sp500. Investors in that area tend to want long term results. It’s sold on the basis that you stick your money there and ride it for the next 20-30 years.
genius
Yeah I don’t care how good you are at “pumping up a stock.” That’s not genius.
Cunning? Sure. Savvy? Ok. Clever? Eh fine.
Genius? Lol fuck off
They could also abandon the cybertruck and focus on building cheap easy to repair shit boxes. Theyd corner the market by simply being affordable. Especially if they abandoned the BS futurism crap.
I was going to post just the text, but you beat me to it. And with a gif no less! Good show.
I might actually consider buying a Tesla at that point. The SO and I nixed the car as an option purely because of that guy.
2 years ago I was certain a long range Model 3 would be our family’s first electric vehicle. I am now certain that a Rivian R2 will be that vehicle instead. As long as Musk is in the pipeline, making terrible decisions I have no interest in Tesla.
Model Y is the best car I’ve ever had. I suppose in spite of, not thanks to the ketamine man. Probably not my next car if Tesla doesn’t do something smart about Musk.
Don’t threaten me with a good time!
Do eeeeet!
Promise?
Yeah but like an Elon promise.
So no.
does another bump of ketamine
“Wait, I’m staying.”
does another
“Nah. I’m gone.”
does another
“Yeaaaah I’m gone”
passes out, shits himself
I always pictured him drinking Grime’s piss to get high.
Will I stay or will I go now?
If I go there will be trouble (for Musk)
And if I stay it will be double (for Tesla)
Why does ketamine have to be catching strays just because this one douchebag uses it
Call his bluff!
That is the best thing that could happen to Tesla right now.
He’s clearly too distracted by his new found social troll celebrity. He’s not been doing Tesla any favors in recent years. Better he get removed at this point.
Ok but hear me out. We could also pay him $56 billion
Sounds like a sensible investment.
Do it. but first let me go buy some puts.
(for the record, that’s either way. cuz. you know. tesla’s getting shitfucked now that they actually have competition.)
Il run tesla for half that, and by simply doing nothing I will do a much better job than Musk.
