I’m in the same boat as you.
Disclosure: I used to be a Tesla shareholder. And I made a few pennies off the hype.
Alas, Elon is a giant cunt, and Tesla sucks (and is obscenely overvalued as well).
The saddest part about Elon’s mask falling off, for me personally: explaining to my son - who aspires to be an engineer, and who idolized Musk as a modern-day Iron Man mythic hero - that Musk is, sadly, a con-man who succeeded wildly for awhile at grift (and he’s a shitty father, and a fascist, at that); that was a huge bummer for me.
I bought into Tesla at below the $100 mark because I genuinely believed that Tesla, SpaceX, and yes, Elon would bring about a new tech revolution and allow us to start leaving the past behind.
That's what hurts the most. The absolute waste of potential. He could have done so much good but alas, down the shitter it all went.
Autocorrect.
Does your son realize that Elon is not an engineer? And he has never produced his own invention (the ~~shadow~~ shape of the cyber truck does not count as an invention).
Now he does. At the time, no.
I twigged when a puff piece about his engineering bona fides mentioned him using epoxy on a conveniently cracked housing during a press tour.
Sure, bud. That's proof of him being Chief Engineer like writing that article was proof of you being a journalist.
I swear Android autocorrect has a sense of humour. I swiped shape but it wrote shadow. OK the last two sets of keys are adjacent but I did not pause over d.
