Reverse the damage with a nazi in charge?

[–] Freshparsnip@lemm.ee 13 points 6 hours ago

The best thing he could do for Tesla would be resign from Tesla

[–] Cheems@lemmy.world 4 points 6 hours ago

He got it all the companies that can regulate him. He did the job that he intended to do.

[–] BigBenis@lemmy.world 12 points 10 hours ago

Lol what's he going to do at Tesla? More false promises of self-driving by the end of the year? Robot butlers that are totally not just being controlled remotely by some guy in a VR suit?

[–] Cocopanda@futurology.today 6 points 10 hours ago

Bro sounds like the biggest JD from Grandma’s boy. Right down to wearing stupid leather outfits. He’s a cucked loser with no actual friends. No one that reaches out just to see how he’s doing. And is asking for nothing in return. He doesn’t have those relations.

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 35 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (1 children)

Does he not realise that it's his association with tesla that's fucked it?

Returing will resolve nothing. Except his poor bwuised ego someone bring the poor dear his ~~handlers~~ sycophants

[–] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 10 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

They phrase it like he's going back to his desk and crunch some numbers and work really hard to get tesla out of this predicament.

[–] uienia@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

He will go back to his desk and keep on spending all of his time shitposting on his own shitty social media platform.

[–] RedPostItNote@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

Everything he touches will turn to Nazi shit after what he’s done.

[–] LarryLurkman@lemm.ee 14 points 16 hours ago

I'm sick of Elon Musk's fucking face.

[–] Litebit@lemmy.world 21 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (1 children)

Is he going back to his bunker to off himself like his idol, Hitler.

[–] Zacpod@lemmy.world 10 points 18 hours ago (1 children)
[–] RedPostItNote@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

God would smile

[–] Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works 48 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

I love the assumption that somehow the problem was that he wasn't spending enough time at Tesla, as if the Cybertruck wasn't 100% his baby through and through. Clearly, with more genius ideas like that the company would be doing so much better.

[–] Nikls94@lemmy.world 13 points 22 hours ago

Full self driving in the next 5 years! [Elon Musk, 2016 and every year since]

[–] mesamunefire@lemmy.world 5 points 23 hours ago

I believe he only owns 10%ish of the company now. And most of his investments are in spacex. So I'm honestly not sure what hes going to do.

[–] ExtremeDullard@lemmy.sdf.org 86 points 1 day ago

People won't forgive the damage he's done to the country that welcomed him.
People won't forget the Nazi salutes.

That's what he's bringing back to Tesla. Unless Tesla severs all ties with this toxic liability, they're doomed.

[–] redlemace@lemmy.world 46 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's not just Twitter and Tesla anymore. Anything he touches will make most people revolt and move away Although some people can't be saved and will follow him. But basically I think he's done.

[–] mutual_ayed@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 day ago

There was inverse Cramer, now it's inverse Musk.

[–] Carmakazi@lemmy.world 36 points 1 day ago

He was always a net negative to operations, but he's substantially declined in his drug abuse and mental health since his foray into politics. He's going to wreck anything he touches with his hubris.

Of course it could take a long time for his faithful to come to terms with that.

[–] scytale@lemm.ee 17 points 22 hours ago

I like what Walz tweeted about this, something like he's gonna pause destroying your retirement so he can go save his.

[–] letsgo2themall@lemmy.world 23 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I will never buy a tesler. there are way better EVs on the market already.

[–] bamboo@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 1 day ago (2 children)

plenty of EVs that have a good steering wheel that doesn’t fly off your hand while you’re driving.

[–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 5 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Not to mention, circular in shape, and not a copy of a fucking airplane yoke.

[–] aesthelete@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

One of the best parts of driving IMO is when you're relying on the car to straighten itself out after a turn and release the wheel slightly to feel it rotate in your hand. I guess i shouldn't be surprised that his cars are so poorly designed that they even removed that sensation.

[–] sittinonatoilet@sopuli.xyz 3 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

You probably love your mother in law

[–] j0ester@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago

But it’s all computer.

[–] clutchtwopointzero@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago
[–] Litebit@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago

He has been DOGED.

[–] chilldrivenspade@lemmy.world 7 points 22 hours ago

It’s just a stock manipulation tactic, he changes nothing, too busy in a k hole obsessing over lgbtq people

[–] boolean_sledgehammer@lemmy.world 10 points 23 hours ago

Even if the boarding directors fired Musk and did everything they could to disentangle his diseased legacy from the company, Teslas would still be overpriced shitboxes with serious quality control issues.

He can bring Donald and several other Congress and his Admins with him too. We can create a GoFundMe.

[–] Jumpingspiderman@lemmy.world 1 points 16 hours ago

Is it too late? We can only hope it is!

[–] YoFrodo@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

god I hope so

How long before the Elon effect resumes? 2 days?
