Because he is starting to manage it in really corrupt ways? Acquiring xAI for an overinflated amount is like stealing from SpaceX shareholders.

Also, he is looking less like someone doing amazing things and more like someone talking about the amazing things he is gonna do.

In the past I was thinking I would really like to invest in spacex. Who know they might do really well. I am not so sure now.

The first catch of Super Heavy by the chopsticks was 18 months ago. Tesla started mass production of a dedicated, steering-wheel-free robotaxi five days ago. The first flight of the new Raptor 3 engine should happen any day now.

Elon is doing amazing things on a regular basis. What would drive someone to pretend otherwise?

If Elon can do all of that why does he employ so many people?

		This rude reddit stuff, this snarky ignorance-as-an-argument junk, is just so demeaning. The role of the entrepreneur is to organize labor and capital in pursuit of their goals. The achievement of said goals can obviously be attributed to the entrepreneur. Try anchoring your arguments in facts--in reality. Make assertions. Form syllogisms. Word games are for children.

There is no mass production of Tesla robotaxis. The most generous interpretation of the claim of mass production is that they are no longer handcrafted by a prototype shop, and that work has moved into a Tesla facility. But that's not a production line, and that's not mass production.

Every Tesla car that hasn't got someone in the driver's seat with the steering wheel in front of them is being followed by a chase car and a remote operator.

But this is all fresh BS. How many times has Elon claimed that Tesla semi is in mass production?
