    I dont think people grasp that he doesnt really care about tesla anymore, his shareholders are having a stroke, but he personally, has other sources of wealth that are more important to his megalomania now, namely starlink and spacex, and all the government subsidies that come from them.

    at the end of the day, tesla is just a car company, and when you’re a megalomaniac trying to design the entire world to your liking, thats small fry stuff

      Yes, the new version of “nobility” that doesn’t want to pay taxes. They make a company and then get government handouts.

      Eutelsat is providing a Nazi-free alternative to Starlink, and NASA is being shut down and I doubt the ESA or CNSA will want to cooperate with SpaceX.
