Elon Musk says he’s going back to Tesla. The question now is whether or not its too late to reverse the brand damage that’s been done.

    People won’t forgive the damage he’s done to the country that welcomed him.
    People won’t forget the Nazi salutes.

    That’s what he’s bringing back to Tesla. Unless Tesla severs all ties with this toxic liability, they’re doomed.

    It’s not just Twitter and Tesla anymore. Anything he touches will make most people revolt and move away Although some people can’t be saved and will follow him. But basically I think he’s done.

    I love the assumption that somehow the problem was that he wasn’t spending enough time at Tesla, as if the Cybertruck wasn’t 100% his baby through and through. Clearly, with more genius ideas like that the company would be doing so much better.

      I believe he only owns 10%ish of the company now. And most of his investments are in spacex. So I’m honestly not sure what hes going to do.

    He was always a net negative to operations, but he’s substantially declined in his drug abuse and mental health since his foray into politics. He’s going to wreck anything he touches with his hubris.

    Of course it could take a long time for his faithful to come to terms with that.

    Even if the boarding directors fired Musk and did everything they could to disentangle his diseased legacy from the company, Teslas would still be overpriced shitboxes with serious quality control issues.
