- And knowing how often re contradicts himself and straight out lies, his words are worth less than nothing.
  
  Yepp. It’s gonna cost $75,000 and his workers will be sleeping on piles of broken glass.
Mentality of a fourteen year old. Thinks he sounds hard, actually sounds like a complete wanker
- His brain's been rotted from all the interacting with 14-year-olds and bots on Twitter.
  He's always seemed unlikeable to me, but I do wonder how different a person he'd be if he'd never developed his Twitter addiction. I think he's very perceptibly become more narcissistic and shifted his personality to try to appeal to his Twitter worshippers.
- The irony
Can we as a society buddy filter out any news with this idiots name until the announcement of his death?
- If we downvote harder maybe
I am amazed they haven't unionized.
- Money goes a long way in keeping unions out. Ask Bezos.
  
  Support the union drive at Amazon KCVG airhub! The airhub is a choke point and would be a huge win, as well as encourage other warehouses to unionize.
- Can't unionize if you never go home or get breaks
- Elon milk on people's passion so much they don't think union is required.
- Why do you think he moved to a state with lower worker protections and higher union busting
- Unions won't necessarily fix this.
  People literally sleep sand bathe at Kellogg plants and they're not only unionized but successfully pulled off a long strike recently.
  That said they should absolutely unionize, if they're going to get fucked they might as well elect some lube.
  
  It's not unions that fix this problem, it's mobs with pitchforks
If the $100k teslas are falling apart, can’t wait to see the $25k tesla 🙄
- They're shitty cars, anyway.
It could be the cheapest EV on the planet and I still wouldn't buy from Tesla.
he needs you slaves to pull harder on those oars
Fuck this guy with a cactus
- Now now, don't do that to a cactus
Fuck this moron
Cartoon villain mindset
If we were living in the wild west, someone would have fixed the Musk problem by now.
- American mindset
nesday, Musk said he needs his teams of manufacturers and engineers to live and sleep at the Texas Gigafactory so any issues with the next-gen EV platform can be addressed quickly
Well, I'm sure that won't trigger any design issues or manufacturing flaws ...
But he'll still be using 100s to wipe his ass.
I’ll start believing him when FSD does what he said it would do back in **
…2015
I feel like he was probably joking and bragging about how high demand will be, and it is getting responded to like it's fact, and people are just eating it up.
I get it. He's an ass, but let's not all eat the onion over pretty benign jokes from a renowned troll.
- Worker exploitation isn't funny nor is it benign. That's why worker rights are literally codified into law.
  
  Oh Lemmy....
  Who are you even talking to? This virtue signaling is so fucking tired on this site. Who is laughing at worker exploitation? Like seriously.
  I said the guy was probably making a joke, as in he doesn't actually want people sleeping on a factory floor and everyone pearl clutches. He is a piece of shit but we don't need to make shit up that isn't real to get offended at.
  I take it back. The joke is you guys.
