Eh only one of those examples includes the CEO literally retweeting nazi-adjacent stuff so it's a bit easier for me to hold tight on Tesla. Even my wife who is not a big tech follower will never consider a Tesla now.

  The conservative Sohrab Ahmari recently wrote a piece in which even he found Musk to be too conservative for his tastes. One of his complaints: >A popular white-nationalist account with the handle “IAmYesYouAreNo” posts a meme declaring, “You are witnessing the biggest act of cuckoldry in human history. An entire civilisation willingly giving away its land and women.” Musk quotes the post, adding in his own words, “Accurate” (he has since deleted the response). What's the mitigating context here? Can you adequately explain it for me?

  I've voted R in almost every election up until 2016. Things have changed quite a bit the last 8 years. Edit to add: I also interviewed to work at Tesla back a few years ago (before all the Twitter stuff). I thought Elon seemed pretty hard-driving but otherwise had no strong opinion. Only declined to move forward because the work/life balance seemed poor.
