For nearly a decade Elon Musk has claimed Teslas can truly drive themselves. They can’t. Now California regulators, a Miami jury and a new class action suit are calling him on it.

We all did. Remember, he used to actually be very well-liked by the public at one point, on both sides. Hell, we were giving him Marvel cameos and everything. It wasn’t until the year after that article, that the public started to notice what a piece of shit Elon was; opinions on him didn’t really start shifting until his involvement in that cave rescue in 2018.
Instead of shitting on the author for a piece he wrote eight years ago, you should recognize that he now knows better.
It was starlink for me… When starlink was announced I was deeply interested. Then I did some research on LEO setups and did some thinking about why the current companies that do LEO stuff aren’t that big (because they do exist)… and realized that it was all garbage scam that could never even be profitable. It was rapid downhill for me since then. I think that was early-mid 2016?
Hey now some of us pegged him as a pissant years before he went mask off, but I will admit that for myself it was probably because of racism. I refuse to trust Anglo-Africans, they’re all shifty ass motherfuckers some of them can be shifty in a vaguely respectable way.
I’ve always thought him and his fan club were weird. The whole Tesla stan club with the stock and everything…dude just always came across as a grifter. Yeah he actually has products, but he also has a legion of fanboys who more than a few of turn out to be decent engineers and are willing to work for him and be treated like shit.
I’m also an engineer and the turnover rate at his companies is so high and always has been. It’s ridiculous.
