Is there a new short sell campaign for tesla I'm unaware of?
- detaro 6y ago
  ah yes, because any criticism of dear leader has to be a "short sell campaign"...
  - stunt 6y ago
    Not even criticism. Just a list of his promises without any interpretations.

> Like Donald Trump, But For Nerds Tweet controversial things confidently and erratically to build buzz, then just pretend you never said it, and be defended to the death by your horde of passionate believers who know it’s obvious what you really meant to say. I don’t think Musk is actively as malicious as Trump but the Twitter playbook at least is quite similar.

    That depends on whether it tilts inwards or outwards when turning a curve. It could be a ship instead.

Some of these are not particularly strong, and they missed several significant ones (Roadster, Cybertruck, Semi, refreshed Model S).

  Technically Tesla fell just short of 500K cars in 2020.

    Q2 2020 through Q1 2021 achieved the specified goal. https://www.statista.com/statistics/715421/tesla-quarterly-vehicle-production/ https://www.statista.com/statistics/715421/tesla-quarterly-v...

Would love if they linked to a follow-up, showing wether Musk delivered or not on his claims.
