I was reading a slate article about money advice and sounds like they have credit card debt and 1 to many vehicles so wife wants to sell the Tesla. Seems like right choice but she is qualifying it before he became a jerk. Lol what did he do?

You ain't lying. Galactic Inquisitor was bleeding hard over Elon yesterday on the OT. It was pathetic and amusing at the same time

You could say the same about him becoming a hero to the right.

So we’re supposed to hate him because he’s a champion of free speech?

No, my point is that there was a time when he was most associated with saving the world from climate change.

The Left HATES Musk simply because his 'X' is largely a Free Speech platform that finally exposes all the Left's Lies and propaganda.

Plus the Left's b#chy fascists and authoritarians HATE that the free market trumps its bulls# -- even though they still control a 99% monopoly of platforms.

It's how the left keeps each other in line. They make it known that NOBODY is safe from being ostracized, cancelled, etc... UNLESS you tow the line absolutely and completely. You obey or you're beneath garage to them.

funny how perception changes but yet you still cant see any better. musk was always about making money. he just applies it more in a practical application than an Al Gore does

That's not news to me. I'm just talking about public perception.

Oh, right. You want to sell your one EV because Musk is mean and stuff.

Has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that charging availability is limited, battery replacements are an exorbitant routine expenditure, maintenance on home charges can get costly, your overall driving range on a single charge is laughable, and GCE vehicles are far more cost efficient and practical and the most efficient of them are being proven to leave a drastically smaller carbon footprint.

Yeah, it's just easier to blame the immensely successful African American than to admit you completely fell for the narrative and propaganda and bought into the colloquialism surrounding the EV hype.

The older I get, the more I see the herd mentality and am forced to live with the nagging truth that 90% of Americans are mindless sheep.

Well now he’s most associated with saving free speech.

I probably don’t agree with him on several topics, but his support of free speech is very important.

He made too much money… the Tesla board just approved like a $50 billion dollar payment to him and then they laid off like 10% of their workforce
