He can save Tesla by leaving Tesla.
Nobody can save tesla. Nobody should save him. I wish from the bottom of my hearts to piss on his grave as soon as possible.
Nope. The only way he can save Tesla is if he left Tesla and sold all his Tesla shares.
Tesla is a ruined brand. Even if he sold his shares, many people will never forgive the other shareholders for standing by a Nazi as he demolished American democracy. I will never buy anything from Tesla as long as i live, and i was once part of his key market: i had intentions to buy a powerwall, a solar roof, and a car. People always say that Volkswagen got free from its Nazi roots; I say, not while Hitler wore his brain on the inside.

You can’t hold a grudge forever though. There came a time when none of Volkwagen’s employees or officers were around during the 3rd Reich, and all of the assets dating back from that era got replaced completely, making the Volkswagen brand name the only carryover from the Hitler era.
My Dad used to go vacationing in Southern France way back when. When he was on the beach, he would scream and shout at older Germans, calling them Nazis and telling them to go home. But he never did that with younger Germans. When we kids asked him why he only hated older Germans so much, he told us “The kids who were born after the liberation didn’t do anything. Why would I hate them?” - Made sense to us.
Agreed, the brand is forever tarnished in my eyes and I sold all of my stock in the company. I can’t imagine that Tesla will survive even 10 more years in car production. Their charging network will probably stand for some time, though, as there’s sadly no major players stepping up.
It’s arguably not any better but isn’t Walmart about to fire up a charging network?
Hate to say it, but lots of people still buy VW even when the current CEO is still sympathetic to Nazis. Unfortunately Tesla will be fine.
Can you provide source on the VW CEO being sympathetic to Nazis?
Idk about the current CEO, but the first one for sure was
Except vw made decent cars. The cyber truck is dogshit and the rest is low quality chock full of lies like mileage estimate algorithms and never going to happen “full self driving”
As far as I know the VW CEO is not a Nazi sympathizer, only Elon is. The person is being purposefully misleading.
VW had it’s history from Nazi Germany, but it isn’t run by Nazi like Tesla.
But yeah, Tesla got infamous for poor quality, especially with cybertruck.
I’m not sure he can sell his shares, he was using them for collateral to buy X. Since he sold X though, I’m not sure if that’s still true.
he sold twitter to a company he owns, didn’t he?
I’m okay with him keeping the shares as long as they are non-voting shares and he is barred from contacting any board member. Yes, that includes personal friends and family. Those are the requirements to keep them.
I’m not: if he has shares, he gets to profit from Tesla’s success. Worse: in your scenario, Tesla might do better and he might profit even more.
Well that’s never going to happen. There is no way to force him to sell those shares, or take them from him without a premium where he makes even more.
At least my suggestion is plausible.
Yeah you’re right, it’s not going to happen.
My point was, while your suggestion is indeed plausible, it won’t save Tesla: would-be EV buyers who give Tesla a pass don’t do it because Musk is on the board or runs the company, they do it because they don’t want to give their money to a fucking Nazi.
Maybe he could save it by leaving this earth, permanently.
He should try it and see if it works
Shut up. Let him think he can. Get him the fuck away from our government. IDGAF if he actually manages to save Tesla or will inevitably be its downfall. But either way, don’t discourage him from trying lest he keep his focus on destroying our systems is governance from the inside. Him being gone probably won’t save anything in the long run, but it sure as shit won’t help to keep him here.
He really does need to be deported. Eventually they’ll find out that they let russia into sensitive gov systems and maybe go to jail. That would be good for him. He kind of needs to be protected from himself.
I’m just so entertained by this entire dynamic
Good. Let it fail along with him.
