“Whether you hate me, like me or are indifferent, do you want the best car, or do you not want the best car?” [Apartheid Manchild] told audiences at an event in November.

Well, for starters I don’t want a car at all. I’d rather use public transit. You know, an actually effective means of reducing emissions.

If I were in the market, yes, I would want the best car. Which is why I’d never buy a Tesla. I’d buy an XPeng or a BYD or the like.

    He went from “genius” to “dumbass” when he announced his hyperloop a decade ago, and finally to “someone I have perfect hatred for” in less than a few months given his recent conduct. I don’t want his cars, I don’t want his robots, I don’t want to see his face ever again. He’s a piece of shit. If he died, I’d be in line to piss on his grave.

        Unfortunately he is someone who has a cult of personality and a lot of media pull. I wish he would shut the fuck up, it would be a welcome change and very good for him.

        Gee, I wonder why that could possibly be the case? Surely it isn’t completely warranted given everything Elon says and does on a worldwide platform, right?
