    Musk is a barely part time CEO of an automaker that had a 10 year head start and is about to get passed by just about every other major maker. He’s producing cars rife with QA problems, and ships about equal parts vaporware to actual cars. There is also a ticking clock on a significant part of Tesla’s business which is selling carbon offset credits (side note: what’s the fucking point then?) and other subsidies that seem to have no plan to solve. He spends his actual time shitposting now with extra anti-semitism (and I guess we’re glossing by the anti-LGBTQ shit he’s posted several times.)

    SpaceX is healthier, but also has massive weakness in that they largely that way because of massive subsidy and lack of regulation on shooting satellites into space.

    Literally just about any other employee, not CEO would be fired 20 times over. That Elon remains the head of any company should send investors screaming for the hills because there is basically no clearer sign that the companies have no actual board and thus no actual oversight. Elon shouldn’t be in charge of picking between McDonalds or Wendy’s, much less an actual company.
