  • Tesla is suing Chinese customers for defamation if they publicly blame its cars for causing crashes that hospitalise them. It even went so far as to doxx one woman after she protested at a trade show.

  • Journalists in Shanghai have been told the company is off limits for criticism.

  • Musk maintains a close relationship with Li Qiang, the 2nd highest ranking member of CPP.

The free speech absolutist strikes again!

If Musk had a brain aneurysm tonight, it would be a net positive for the human race.

Better if it was something that destroyed his legacy in the process. Don’t need a load of “gone too soon” sentiments.
