Let’s seal the coffin for Tesla. If it is profitable again, it will fuel fascism again. This brand need to go bankrupt.
With the one possible exception that Musk sells a large enough portion of his shares that not only does he not guide it, but no longer gains significant percentage of it’s profits.
No forgiveness for Musk, Tesla or its investors. If anyone in my family buys a car, a battery, a robot, a solar panel, or a stick of gum from Tesla I will never speak to them again. Investors could have gotten out when it became clear that Musk was a Nazi. They would have made a lot of money. Anyone who stayed with the company while the stock was over $400 and that piece of shit was throwing Nazi salutes deserves to lose every penny they invested. I will never walk past a Tesla without spitting on it.
IMO, it’s not enough to just have Musk step down from the board, quit as CEO, or divest himself from the company. I didn’t like Tesla as a company or a brand very much before Elon went crazy. My issue with the company is that they were notorious slavedrivers in their factories since the very beginning and forced people to work overtime or risk being laid off to meet production quotas. I tried to interview at the Tesla Fremont factory and the guy doing interviews told me pretty straight-up that if I wasn’t willing to work 2 hours overtime every weekday, work on Saturdays and every other Sunday then I wouldn’t last a month at the company, so I didn’t take the job. As far as the brand goes, their quality control issues should be well known at this point - I see brand new Teslas with panel gaps wider than my finger rolling off of lots, so you know shit on the inside isn’t going to be any more well put together.
If I were to ever buy one, Musk would have to not be in the picture at all, the company would have to issue a public formal apology to the consumers for both the behavior of Musk while acting as CEO and also for the numerous lies told about the features and capabilities of the vehicles, and finally they would have to start gradually repairing their brand reputation by improving the QC process and start making cars built to last.
I don’t see any of that happening any time soon.
So follow your nazi-rolemodel’s example and self-administer some antidepressants.
Piece of shit.
“The Teslas that will be fully autonomous in June in Austin will be Model Ys, so that is currently on track to be able to do paid rides, fully autonomously in June, and then to be in many other cities in the U.S. by the end of this year,” Musk said on the call.
Okay, so there is zero chance that there will be fully autonomous model Ys doing paid rides anywhere for the next 5-10 years (at least).
There is zero fucking chance I will be getting into one of these death traps.
Nazi controlled death traps. It’s about power and control:
Punish the poor: “take the bus peasant”
Extort the wealthy: “to bypass traffic, please insert $40. FOR $80 we’ll speed for you to shave 10 mins off your trip.”
Murder the rebellious either inside or outside the cab: "tonights news we look at the car accident where AOC was driven off a cliff and her protesters were run over repeatedly by an autonomous tesla.
Gate the elite: sorry, this area is restricted to C class passenger licenses or higher.
You think it’s going to be hard for Tesla to convince a city in Texas to let them do autonomous rides?
Texas.
I’m not suggesting they’ll do a lot of rides, but there will be at least a handful until something goes wrong sooner than it should and they force a pause.
Edit: and to be clear, something very wrong. Waymo does wrong things all the time and it’s allowed. It’s going to have to do enough wrong things in a short time or a very very bad thing sooner than it should. But they’ll do rides until that.
You think it’s going to be hard for Tesla to convince a city in Texas to let them do autonomous rides?
All I know is that Elon couldn’t predict the sunrise. He lies and makes overconfident statements constantly.
anywhere for the next 5-10 years (at least).
Correction: ever.
Musk insisted on the earnings call that protest against him are “very organized” and “paid for,” repeating suggestions he’s made previously about shadowy financiers who are supposedly funding demonstrations. Musk also said the “real reason” there are protests against him is that people who are receiving fraudulent money from government agencies that are now getting cut. Musk has never provided any evidence for this assertion.
What a delusional dipshit. He has lost touch with reality. His ego is so fragile he has to make up fairy tales. Poor wittuh snowfwake
Funny that a guy who buys elections would suddenly be upset at the thought of other people being paid to make political statements.
He’s wrong as shit, of course. People genuinely hate that useless sack of shit.
But it is funny.
Until recently, it was a huge crime to make an unprovable statement in any way, shape, or form in an earnings call. Even rich people were scared to break that rule. I miss when we had laws.
Gonna end up like Howard Hughes.
Gee I hope not. I want to see the corpse.
I would be happy if the corpse burned up in the wreckage of one of his muskrockets hitting Mar-a-Lago.
Sorry dude. Empathy is a weakness and all.
The word of the day is “schadenfreude”
Good.
This nazi fuck should never feel any peace again.
Elon did to Tesla what Hitler did to svastika.
Oh no!
Anyway.
And this is only the first quarter, when all the DOGE bullshit was still new. I can’t wait to see what Q2 is going to bring, sales drop wise. :-) This mofo deserves all the bad news that’s coming to him, I truly hope the bottom falls out of his debt ridden house of cards.
I drove past a dealership today and they had soooo many cybertrucks lol
Earlier this year, I was seeing cybertrucks on the road regularly. I believe I was seeing at least one a day on most days when I ventured out somewhere. I haven’t seen one in the wild in at least two or three weeks. It’s a little disappointing too, because I miss flipping them off.
71% is just the start.
Why was the stock up today??
- It’s down 9% since in revenue compared to this quarter last year. Not good but 71% loss on net income is slightly misleading
- Outlook is often more important than earnings. People are, supposedly, hype about the autonomous taxis. But those have been coming “next year” for a couple years now
They released quarterly report and this was already priced in. When no new bombshells were dropped, people started buying.
They reiterated the cheaper models starting production in H1 2025 as well. Reuters had just reported those were delayed months on Thursday.
I’d love to see how they can twist a H1 2025 guidance on April 22 and then backtrack by June 30th. Not impossible though.
Today was the day to announce any delays if they were going to do it and not face investor backlash.
This announcement happened at the close of the markets. The price movement during active trading today cannot be in response to this announcement.
Watch the markets tomorrow, that is when you will see the effect of this news.
The stock was up in after hours trading as well. While not a guarantee of what will happen tomorrow when markets open, it’s a good indication it’ll open up.
Its an indication of what the people who trade in extended hours think, which is not a particularly representative sample.
It’s not perfect, but if it’s super red in AH it’s probably going to be at leaast somewhat red on open and likely for at least a bit of time.
Unless Trump tweets something that changes things.
I’m sure a little special K can fix this.
