> Elon's word is worth very little these days His words are worth fine. Articles and second hand mangled version of what he actually says is worth nothing - I agree. As far as this topic is concerned, demand for Tesla Semi is enough evidence.

  > Tesla is dead as a company. Oh one of you. Would be great if you spread this as far as you can and get the Tesla share prices to drop so I can buy them cheap. Cheerio ;)

    So Tesla isn't offering incentives? https://electrek.co/2022/12/01/tesla-tsla-gives-3750-discount-for-model-3-y-in-the-us-this-month/ https://electrek.co/2022/12/01/tesla-tsla-gives-3750-discoun...

      Yes. This incentive applies only to the US. Only for December. Only on certain variants of Model 3 and Y. All thanks to people unwilling to take delivery in December due to IRA kicking in on January 1, 2023.

        So basically the days of people wanting to pay a premium for Tesla are over?

    They're spreading FOMO because they're short. They keep losing.

  Tesla offered a discount in order to that people do not wait until buying in January when a new credit becomes available to people. And this is in a tiny part of the global market as well. To jump from 'company offers discount' to 'company is dead' is literally the dumbest fucking argument I have ever heard. Seriously wtf. Also they literally made record profit last quarter and are expected to make record profit this quarter all while still growing rapidly for a company this large. Claiming Tesla is a dead company is really the height of idiocy. Like if you don't like Musk that fine, but really just denying reality because of that makes you look like very foolish.

  > Objectively untrue. His statements are weighed. They once weren’t. Buying into partisan pædophile conspiracies has a price. He hasn't done that once. This is exactly the "mangled version of what he actually says" the previous poster was talking about.

    He just called a person rescuing children from an underwater cave a pedophile. https://www.npr.org/2019/12/06/785747858/los-angeles-jury-finds-no-defamation-in-elon-musks-pedo-guy-tweet https://www.npr.org/2019/12/06/785747858/los-angeles-jury-fi...

      First off, it's almost 2023. He didn't "just" call that person a pedophile. Also, the dude went to court - court found he wasted everyone's time, didn't pay him a cent. Turns out you can't just charge people for defamation because of angry remark they may make.

      You mean several years ago. And this should be a meme. Ok I was lying about Musk but what about the pedophile comment
