I will say though, I've been suspicious he's had long standing plans to just dump Tesla at some point in the near future anyway. I'm hopeful the point he was planning to jump ship and sell off his stock has gotten beyond his control and he can't do it without majorly fucking himself over.
Aside from everything else he's done to get deeply involved in the oil and gas industry, what made me really suspicious was when DOGE removed all EV charging stations from federal buildings for not being "mission critical."
If he thinks civil war is necessary but doesn’t think corporations will be casualties… then what does he define as civil war? Where less important things die? you know, those umm.. soft gelatinous things. People, yes people are expendable.
This soft and gelatinous thing looks forward to a place to expend his umm, anger and frustration.
I'm still not convinced that isn't just insurance fraud to try to recoup some money for junky cars no one wants while pretending he's a political victim.
Good luck getting that proven in a court
Does any of court even matter anymore when the president is in your back pocket?
Exactly
The best thing about this is that Tesla is massively overvalued. Like, the stock price is more than 20x what it should be based on Tesla's earnings.
If Tesla had a reasonable value, then hedge fund managers and other rich people would probably be buying it while it was temporarily down and getting rich as it went back up. But, with it so insanely overvalued, it's much more likely they'll short it or buy put options and hope to get rich when it finally crashes.
Relatively speaking, Tesla is far less overvalued than in the past.
At one point their market cap exceeded every other automaker in the world COMBINED.
That might make sense if they were making unprecedented loads of money but of course they got trounced in sales compared to Toyota then and now.
Yes, it was at something like 30x overvalued, now it's only 20x overvalued.
Glad you mentioned Toyota. Their P/E ratio is approximately 7. Tesla is approximately 100. If Tesla were a well run car company with a lot of good vehicles and an anonymous CEO who nobody hates, the fair value of their stock would be about $14 per share. It's currently $236 per share.
Someone is going to make mountains of money shorting Tesla stock, but unfortunately it's going to be someone rich. The market can remain irrational much longer than normal people can remain solvent. Some rich dude is going to take the risk though and make out like a bandit.

You know what's horrific and evil? Cutting Medicaid and social security for millions of people because your billions of dollars isn't enough money to make up for the fact that you're a giant man baby.
"It's only a civil war when we do it. Otherwise it's nonsensical violence against innocents!"

He assumed his opponents would kill random people instead of targeting his property.
He probably can't even comprehend a worldview where people prefer to attack wealth over taking another human being's life.
That would require empathy, which he considers a weakness. So he probably is genuinely baffled by this.

Has he even said 'Thank You' ONCE yet??? So ungrateful...
The funny thing is the first tweet was right, just wrong in his intention. I don't see this ending without a civil war.

How the hell do Elon and other oligarchs feel so safe to call for a literal civil war? He thinks the other side cares more about fighting Joe Bob more than the billionaires? Such strange delusional behavior
Historically, that is how elites have always maintained their power, so yes. It’s just a lot more difficult to 1) mobilize an overworked and comfort-seeking populace, and 2) we are more interconnected than ever before.
The power of propaganda is being seized by the people. We create the content. We cover current and localized events (in actual real time) because it’s our actual communities. We know who is who and what is what.
It continues to amaze me just how many grown-ass adults have seemingly never moved beyond schoolyard-levels of maturity. This is like typical childhood bully stuff. And that's before we even get into these immature manbabies actually have real power over people...
When I look at myself in the first grade and I look at myself now, I'm basically the same. The temperament is not that different.

I'm not even joking.

Does anyone else think the "happening in my town of (insert town name here)" is a bot account he set up to blow up small isolated incidents?

This is from the same guy who said Hitler didn't kill millions of people. He's being deliberately obtuse and he thinks everyone must be stupid.

It would make my year if he cried live in an interview where it dawns on him that he's the cause of his own demise. But he's not smart enough.
He almost did actually. He was in an interview a little while ago where he was moments away from tears.

We brought him a little taste of civil war. He's just mad he's on the losing side.
Sow wind, harvest storm.
Your self-driving Teslas literally drove a woman to the sea where it acted as her watery coffin, this was also the sister-in-law of a major Senator of the party YOU support
Can't imagine what they'd do to people you actually don't like.
