It’s almost like people fucking hate nazi fucks.
Interesting.
Anyone saying he failed at doge is missing the point. He absolutely hyperfocused on destroying and delaying countless lawsuits against his companies. Please let’s focus on this instead.
Tesla only made a profit in Q1 because of the CO2 tax credits they sell to other car manufacturers.
Tesla is a very heavily subsidized company, in fact Tesla is built on subsidies. Yet Musk has the audacity to claim public workers only interest is to take money from the government without doing useful work!
Without capital gains and tax credits, Tesla would be $600 million in red in Q1! And Tesla continues to lose marketshare fast in Europe.DOGE should take a chainsaw to those subsidies.
Everyone associated with DOGE should be serving life in prison for corruption along with dozens of other national security, data & privacy violations.
Okay, but after they take away the subsidies to Tesla.
The longer you look at any musky business the clearer it becomes that the foundations are built upon the manipulation and harvesting of public funding.
Whether it be tax incentives to build and operate a factory, manipulation of tax credits, or special grants, the findings are always similar.
Then, if that doesn’t work he calls in the bad guys from planet earth to privately ‘invest’ in his flailing bullshit so they can use whatever it is as a tool to accomplish the evil they want to see in the world.
Considering how dependent he is of government, it’s weird he is so much against it.
But he is so much a narcissist that he thinks that he alone made everything he did possible.
It wasn’t the fact that he was born rich in a rich country that supported his endeavors, it wasn’t the enthusiastic workers and engineers that worked tirelessly because he convinced it was a “project to save earth”!
Elon Musk is disgusting, taking all his privilegies for granted, while wanting to deny working people the bare minimum.
Elon Musk and Donald Trump are prime examples of why we need to tax wealth more.
71% profit loss and the stock is still waaaay up from a year ago. Our stock market is completely broken.
It’s propped up by lies and insider trading
The entirety of the US economy is a house of cards
Every company is “financialized” now. They essentially run like a bank. They aren’t being run based on a product or a service. They are being run to maximize returns for investors to such an extreme level that stock buybacks and layoffs are the tools used to bring the stock price up.
The stock market has been a scam for awhile and not really connected to any company “doing well”. But they are essentially just shitcoins at this point. All running on whether or not people feel like they’ll go to the moon or not.
People that mock Bitcoin but pretend like Tesla doesn’t run on the same toilet paper thin vibes are kidding themselves.
Edit: this is not a defense of crypto. It’s just an example of how fucked the stock market is. Especially in “tech” companies.
I agree completely
Not just the US’s to be fair.
Sadly true
Too many countries have followed suit
My country has built wealth on what can be dug out of the ground, but there is no shortage of buyers
If there’s any justice left in this world Tesla will become the millstone around Musk’s neck as he drowns in a shallow lake.
If we want justice we have to make it.
Ooo! Can we add piranhas to the lake we’re building for him? Each of us gets to give him a paper cut… then salt then lime juice. Then a slap. Sorry I guess I got a little carried away…. Because I totally forgot about the alligators too!
I’m gonna need a few tickets to this circus.
You know what bothers me most about the whole thing with Musk? The Twitter thing.
He was fucking around, he wasn’t really going to buy it, and some jackasses in the government and courts made him go through with it. Congratulations assholes! Because of forcing him to buy Twitter, right wing misinformation went bigger and had no checks at all on it (I mean it wasn’t great before, but at least they didn’t allow outright Nazi propaganda) and that was probably the major tipping point for the election.
So forcing Musk to buy Twitter led straight to this situation we’re in.
he wasn’t really going to buy it,
He was, he just didn’t intend to pay as much as he did
No fuckin way he didn’t fully intend for what happened after he got his hands on Twitter, the idiot just opened his mouth and said a bigger number then he meant to for price initially
The owners of Twitter made him go through with it, using the courts as the enforcement mechanism.
Elon deliberately forced his way into our government undemocraticly
It had nothing to do with Twitter
SpaceX and Tesla were built almost entirely on our tax dollars, the only way he has found to be successful is to convince corrupt politicians to give him our taxes.
No he wanted it, and his Saudi backers did too. Plenty of non Elon money poured into that transaction
But you can’t erase the Nazi salute
When I learned that a significant portion of their profits comes from trading carbon credits I realized they are a straight up scam.
https://carboncredits.com/teslas-carbon-credit-revenue-soars-to-2-76-billion-amid-profit-drop/
As their revenues goes down their usage of carbon credits to make money goes up. They account for around 30% of their total revenue as of 2025.
To realize this considering DOGE’s mission to cut government waste is kind of ridiculous. Why won’t he cut off his own company when it is obviously wasting tax payer money!?
Oh wait, that is right. It is all a lie!
i still drive my old Tesla with free super-charging, bleeding them dry slowly, slowly
There must be a way to retrofit vehicle to grid on old Teslas. Let them pay your electricity bill.
Godspeed
Can you plug it in and also deplete the battery at a similar rate somehow? Like an infinite money drain on Tesla?
I’m sure the impact to climate change would be canceled out by the loss in profit to a Nazi billionaire. But I’d have to do some math.
Maybe we hack together a device that just drains power and tricks the chargers into thinking it’s your car. Use the power consumption to do something like mine crypto and send it to a charity. Idk. Just brainstorming shit lol
A simple one would be to power your PC off the car and just let it sit. Mine some crypto for free on Elon’s dime.
Fuck this Nazi PoS.
ENRON x 1000
Imagine what he will do with 100% profit loss.
Maybe we can get him to stop posting his dumb shit on twitter, oh excuse me, X, brilliant name.
He was trying to make that X trash work as a co-brand for PayPal in like 2001. Nothing new under the sun.
100% profit loss means they can still pay their executives and Cs.
Let’s aim for 100% revenue loss.
Let’s aim for getting him to kill himself.
laughing at the two people that downvoted you. “suicide isn’t funny!”
it actually is. there are verified reports of indigenous people that laugh at stories of suicide in disbelief. they struggle every day just to stay alive and have trouble accepting that people with all the conveniences of modern life would deliberately kill themselves.
also, KYS musk.
Following his role model
Who didn’t.
71% profit loss males me feel uplifted.
What I would give for similar news regarding Amazon.
I haven’t used Amazon in more than 20 years. And I’m never going to use them.
I still have 175€ in Amazon gift cards from birthday presents and such. I’m not using them but I still said thank you lol
Even tho that probably doesn’t do anything because Amazon already got that money, huh?
Amazon will be delighted to keep the money. Spend the vouchers and donate the stuff you buy to charity if you want, but don’t let Amazon keep 100% margin unused gift cards!
Yeah, you’re right. It’s stupid to hold onto them because they are already paid for. Maybe I’ll treat myself to a new RaspPi (mine is old as time, still model 2B)
You are basically giving them free money.
The engineers at Tesla have built some amazing stuff, but the CEO who drove them forward for so long has been holding them back for a while now. Time for Musk to go.
He never drove forward shit, modern day Edison would shock and kill elephants if it made him money.
Eh, I know nuanced viewpoints around billionaires aren’t appreciated on the corporate web, let alone the fediverse, but I really don’t think it’s as simple as that. Why did Tesla succeed where other EV companies failed or floundered? And why did Tesla, the company behind the ultra-desirable Model S and its peers, produce the unsellable Cybertruck and fire the entire Supercharger team?
CEOs set the direction and drive the company to deliver on that. And Musk has lost it - from 95% genius and 5% mad to 95% and 5% genius. I honestly feel sorry for him in many ways - which I fully appreciate is a lot easier to say as a non-American right now! He will probably never again know true love or be considered an inspiration to the smart people he seems drawn to. He’s thrown his lot in with a bunch of bastards who would gladly tear down everything he’s built up. I am 100% confident that I will live a happier and more fulfilling life than him, as poor and stressed as I am. Poor sod.
As the edgelord he is, I hope he’ll appreciate his inevitable future epitaph: “You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.”
