> don't really understand why these kinds of comments persist

One, you can make money criticizing Elon on the internet.

Two, controversy is catnip to the man. DOGE was a disaster. X and xAI look like aborted disasters. And he’s clearly gotten bored with Tesla. It isn’t hard to project that on SpaceX if you don’t know the heritage.

My guess is Tesla's pivoting to batteries and storage. Huge demand, great margins, competitive advantage.

I'm very disappointed Tesla has (seemingly) abandoned its goal of producing 20m Model 2 per year. Forfeiting the mass market is a bummer. More so every passing day.

(I'm bearish on Robotaxi and (Tesla's) self-driving.)
