These CEOs always claim they can't do good for workers, because they need to please the shareholders. So now that the CEO of Tesla is sinking the company, where are these supposed all powerful merciless shareholders at? If I was a shareholder of Tesla I'd demand felon's head for doing all this damn to my investment.

It's a meme stock, not an 'investment'.

And now Musk has parlayed it, and his various pyramid scheme-like companies into replacing as much of the US government as he can get away with with his junk.

The US will suffer.

There's got to be tons of lawsuits right? Like all the people that have been fired and tons of people being affected negatively by musk probably have class action lawsuits and stuff?

I'm sure some will arise from this, and like most times they'll settle instead of taking their target down. Yes it's expensive and time consuming, as always it'll be worth it if you take your time and do things the right way.

You’d have to be very dense to be CEO and get political at all

CEOs and politics go hand in hand. It's the public broadcast that Elon can't seem to curb that's the problem.

I should have been clearer…You’d have to be dense to get political like this.

I keep screaming this to my friends and family.

WHERE ARE THE DERIVATIVE LAWSUITS!?

To be fair, there is a derivative law suit still working and it’s around the excessive bonus they granted musk and then retracted and then re-granted atter reincorporating TESLA in Texas. I’m pretty sure I have this right

I have read that many who would be able to bring suit are in Musk’s pocket. Like his brother, for example.

I really would love to see some derivative suits going though.
