“Get everyone you know, and everyone you don't know, drag them to register to vote,” said Elon Musk at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. “If they don’t, this will be the last election. That’s my prediction.”

    I legitimately don’t understand why anyone (including the us government) uses any of Musk’s products.

    Dudes completely unhinged and the definition of a pigeon CEO. He’s not helping anything, just randomly showing up places on ketamine and shitting all over everything than moving on to a different company he owns to do the same.

      Because with the exception of the cyber truck, Tesla’s are some of the best EV cars on the market.

      Because SpaceX is the biggest successful space company and is currently the only option for launching and returning astronauts into space, unless you want to rely on the Russians.

      Because StarLink is the only service capable of providing internet to remote parts of the world without expensive, bulky equipment.

      And lastly, because most people are capable of recognizing that Musk himself isn’t the one that designed any of this and that an army of engineers and scientists are behind most of it.

        Tesla’s are some of the best EV cars on the market.

        They claim a lot of shit. And if half of it was true they might be the best…

        But all of Musk’s companies overpromise and under deliver.

        Because StarLink is the only service capable of providing internet to remote parts of the world without expensive, bulky equipment.

        Yeah… Because anywhere except the most remote places have better options. And if we’re gonna talk about Starlink then we have to talk about the absolutely insane amount of space debris it creates and how that can be an exponentially growing problem for decades.

        Musk himself isn’t the one that designed any of this and that an army of engineers and scientists are behind most of it.

        And if all Musk did was pay their salaries, you’d be right

        But he has a long history of showing up. Overriding the experts, and insisting what he thought of two seconds ago is better. Literally any of his companies would be better without him, that’s not a got take.

        So while Musk is sticking his thumb in every pie, why would you ever order a slice before knowing if it had the thumb hole?
