The Saudis have remained a major source of financial support for Lucid Motors since it went public, buying up shares and lending billions of dollars as the company has struggled to reach a mass market of EV buyers in the U.S. and abroad.

It's crazy how the Saudis oscillate between "we want to be green and modern" and "we want to do oppression and atrocities".

it's not an oscillation, they want to be green and modern so they can do oppression and atrocities.

Fully automated luxury gay space communism?

Nah, how about fully slave-powered luxury homophobic space monarchy?

[–] Venator@lemmy.nz 1 points 4 days ago

No it's "we want to continue being rich so we are using all this money we got from oil and investing it just in case oil price crashes."

Also Lucid prices are stupid low. I know, I invested in them and watched the stock tank 90%.
