>Hacker News fell for it, hook line and sinker.
Were we reading the same threads? I've seen countless people on HN predicting exactly this sorta thing happening, even myself.
- Larrikin 4y agoMy experience in threads about Elon and his companies, is there is a large number of people who are complete and absolute fanboys in the comments, that also heavily overlaps with a large group of people who have invested in tech stocks trying to get a return on their money. Any criticism I've ever said of Tesla or Elon usually initially gets up votes and then half a day or even a few days later receives a lot of down votes. I always assumed it was people invested in his stocks doing it on their own, but his antics on Twitter show he's the kind of person that might actually employ people to down vote people critical of him and his companies.
