Elon Musk says orders to stay home are ‘fascist’ in expletive-laced rant during Tesla earnings call
LINK
Tesla CEO Elon Musk lashed out at government stay at home orders as “fascist” in an expletive-laced rant on Tesla’s Q1 2020 earnings call.
While answering analysts’ questions about liquidity amid the coronavirus pandemic, Musk called shelter-in-place orders “forcibly imprisoning people in their homes against all their constitutional rights.”
Musk said he was concerned about not being able to resume operations at the company’s factory in Fremont, California, saying that possibility should be considered “a serious risk” given Tesla produces most of its cars there in addition to its Shanghai-based plant. Tesla had initially said the factory would remain open despite shelter-in-place orders until the county where it’s located said it could not be considered an essential business. Six counties, including Alameda, where Tesla’s factory is located, recently extended their shelter-in-place orders through the end of May.
Musk is 100% fricking right.

He's a crazy bastard, but in this case he's a correct crazy bastard.

Yep. 100% right.
Not a fan of his company, but the response by government is not rooted in reality.

I agree completely
I think the constitutionality and general legality of these stay at home orders needs to be brought up. Our civil liberties took a beating due to this pandemic. Was it worth it?

I thought he was a libtard. But I guess it's cutting into his $. Hardly anything left in California that isn't fascist one way or the other.

I cannot stand that dude, but today I can't stand him a little less.

I'm sure they'll put it on the list right under the Patriot Act they just re-authorized.

Well, hes not a CNA or LPN, so he really doesn't know what he's talking about....

I'm waiting until I hear Karen's opinion on this.
Posted on 4/30/20 at 8:55 am to Centinel
Good, Karen is probably a CNA.

Imagine that, agreeing or disagreeing on substance, not personality. What a concept!

He is correct

It's called an opinion and it is allowed to change based on the nuance of the topic being discussed.
You don't have to blindly agree or disagree based on what someone else has told you to do. Free will and all that.

Musk is melting down on Twitter right now, saying he's selling all his physical possessions.
