Elon Musk thread 🧵, part 4.

[jmcrookston@mastodon.social]

Elon has used this tired "I'm sleeping on the floor" nonsense forever. It's just silly propaganda. In fact we all know he plays video games all night.

Here's Vanity Fair on Musk's sleeping on the floor and his other ridiculous behavior:

Goodnight, Goon. Elon Musk Is Whispering “Cuts,” Sleeping on the Floor Near the White House

He really is in the DOGEhouse, huh?

How anybody thinks this man has two brain cells to rub together is beyond me. He's a con man that's it.

Donald Trump says Elon Musk has ‘lost his mind’ and dismisses peace offering

Trump says he is ‘not particularly’ interested in reconciling with Musk, who reportedly wanted to speak to president

the Guardian (www.theguardian.com)

"Elon showed up to a press conference with Trump on Friday with a black eye, claiming that this was due to his son "punching him in the face" because he told him to."

I don't even know what's going on any more.

The WSJ reported last October that Musk had been in regular contact with Russian President Vladimir Putin since late 2022 and also that his contacts with foreign nationals led SpaceX lawyers to advise him against seeking a higher security clearance over fears that he might have to explain the relationships or have his clearance revoked entirely.

Musk's frequent meetings with foreign nationals were tracked by federal agencies

A joint DHS and DOJ probe found that Elon Musk met with foreign nationals frequently between 2022 and 2023 as insiders also said he met with them during the 2024 election

Elon's own "maximally truth seeking" AI thinks Elon is the person most deserving of a desth sentence.

I got nothing. This show is crazy.

IS IT OR IS IT NOT FULL SELF-DRIVING LOL

Tesla on 'self-driving' gets stuck on train track and hit by train

A Tesla Model 3 got stuck on a train track and was hit, albeit slightly, by a train in Sinking...

So what foreign workers does Elon have driving his fake "self-driving" robo taxi con act?

Has there been a story? Are they being driven by remote? Because he doesn't have full self-driving worth a damn.

[jmcrookston@mastodon.social]

Looks like Tesla's Robotaxis hit the road (only a few of them) and already there's video of it losing its mind and crossing double yellow lines.

7:10 for the car losing its mind
20:40 for blinker but no turn

Musk: "... if it is the last thing I do on this Earth."

Me: IS HE FINALLY GOING TO MARS???

"The vehicle suddenly accelerated with our baby in it’: the terrifying truth about why Tesla’s cars keep crashing"

‘The vehicle suddenly accelerated with our baby in it’: the terrifying truth about why Tesla’s cars keep crashing

Elon Musk is obsessive about the design of his supercars, right down to the disappearing door handles. But a series of shocking incidents – from drivers trapped in burning vehicles to dramatic stops on the highway – have led to questions about the safety of the brand. Why won’t Tesla give any answers?

the Guardian (www.theguardian.com)

[jmcrookston@mastodon.social]

"Tesla released a statement to the press saying the company was “deeply saddened” by the incident, adding, “We are working to gather all the facts in this case and are fully cooperating with local authorities.”

To this day, Meier still doesn’t know why her husband died."

Doesn't sound like full co-operation to me.

Tesla lies and hides everything.

"Some escaped with a scare; others ended up in ditches, crashing into walls or colliding with oncoming vehicles. “After dropping my son off in his school parking lot, as I go to make a right-hand exit it lurches forward suddenly,” one complaint read. Another said, “My autopilot failed/malfunctioned this morning (car didn’t brake) and I almost rear-ended somebody at 65mph.” A third reported, “Today, while my wife was driving with our baby in the car, it suddenly accelerated out of nowhere.” "

[jmcrookston@mastodon.social]

"Braking for no reason caused just as much distress. “Our car just stopped on the highway. That was terrifying,” a Tesla driver wrote. Another complained, “Frequent phantom braking on two-lane highways. Makes the autopilot almost unusable.” Some report their car “jumped lanes unexpectedly”, causing them to hit a concrete barrier, or veered into oncoming traffic."

So if Tesla hits 8 trillion market cap Elon Musk is being given a pay package that will make him worth a trillion dollars.

If anyone is still oblivious that this is a con, nothing will save them.

[jmcrookston@mastodon.social]

If this guy could be a bigger dirt bag, I don't know how.

Elon Musk Is Running a "Quiet Trial" of Trump's "Gold Card" Billionaire Immigration Program

South African-born Elon Musk says he's "doing a quiet trial" of president Donald Trump's dubious "gold card" immigration program.

[jmcrookston@mastodon.social]

Where's moral hazard when Elon Musk (con man and idiot) gets himself voted a one trillion dollar pay package.

Oh and racist. I forgot the racism.

[jmcrookston@mastodon.social]

So the man who showed up to the White House with a black eye and claimed that he asked his son to punch him in the face is now going to manufacture computer chips.

"Elon Musk has announced the Terafab project, a joint venture between Tesla, SpaceX and xAI, to build the "largest chip manufacturing facility ever." In his usual grandiose fashion, Musk claims Terafab is the next step towards harnessing the power of the sun and creating a "galactic civilization."

[jmcrookston@mastodon.social]

Is anyone even listening to this racist nutter any more?

You couldn't pay me to take one of his cars.
