“misinformation” is too big a word for ~ 74m americans. call 'em what they are, “LIES”. the single syllable word is more likely to be understood by those who most need to.
He is literally the king of misinformation and it’s largely why Tesla did so well early on. He would get on stage and lie about their progress and vision, and then do it again next quarter/year.
I wish he’d just die already.
Someone is keeping track of the lies. There are a lot of them: https://elonmusk.today/
First lie on the list: 4,697 days since Elon Musk said Tesla will never need to raise capital again. Then a list of the many times since he said it that they needed to raise capital.
Weird to have a “But” in that title. An “And” or no connecting word at all would make more sense. “But” suggests it was okay to influencer lawmakers if only he was truthful instead of spreading misinformation.
If Musk had legitimate criticism of the bill grounded in facts, then I believe it would have been perfectly reasonable to make an attempt to try to influence lawmakers. The issue here was the use of misinformation, influencing lawmakers to make decisions contrary to what a factual argument would lead them to have made.
Nothing like an immigrant trying to take Congress’s job.
