Musk’s repeated outbursts against advertisers have dried up the main source of revenue for the loss-making company formerly known as Twitter. A recent decision to sue them for heeding his own advice to not buy ads on the platform hasn’t helped. At some point, he will have to provide a fresh infusion of cash to salvage his $44 billion takeover.
I believe the appropriate thing to say to Elon here is, “go fuck yourself.”
Free market capitalism will say to let it fail.
If he sells enough Tesla stock, he may save both companies!
I have to give Musk credit. At least he help narrow my car buying decision to know at least one brand that I’ll never buy.
I was talking with a solar company about a solar install with battery storage last year, and they only offered the Powerwall as an option. I literally laughed at them and said there was no way I was tying an enormously expensive piece of home infrastructure to Tesla, because they couldn’t guarantee it’d keep working if Tesla decided to shift direction.
I have rejected every one of the endless stream of door to door solar panel sellers primarily because not ONE would leave me substantial documentation of any kind to decide if I wanted to talk to them - the only thing they wanted was a full “consultation.” My view is that if you can’t give me something that illustrates genearlly what you are about to pitch to me, then you probably just want the chance to apply some shady sales tactics.
Were these door to door guys? Did you go with them? Do you have any opinions on the door to door guys? 🙂
Let that sink in.
It is clever, he told everyone up front that he was there to sink the company.
It might’ve been funny if he was remotely likable. Turns out that humor depends highly on not being an asshole.
