This is a nakedly partisan substack account. Does this really meet HN's quality standards?

- hotep99 2y agoYeah, a "commercial trial lawyer" who vehemently supports court interference with companies and lawsuits to seize control from shareholders and founders. This parasitic class will be the end of the United States.
- kevingadd 2y agoI can think of lots of things that could end the United States, and Elon Musk having a slightly smaller ownership stake of Tesla doesn't seem like one of them.
- metabagel 2y agoWhat Musk is trying to do seems borderline criminal. It seems to me that he is using his control of Tesla to extort the company for compensation. It's one thing to say that he deserves to be compensated for the benefit he brings to the company. It's quite another to threaten to undermine the company if he doesn't get his way.
