This take is so uninformed it's ridiculous: They released a refreshed Model X and Model S in 2021, a refreshed Model 3 in 2023, and the Cybertruck in 2023/2024

This take is so uninformed it's ridiculous: They released a refreshed Model X and Model S in 2021, a refreshed Model 3 in 2023, and the Cybertruck in 2023/2024. FSD 12 was also released in 2024. Most of the world does not care about Elon Musk's political opinions, and the fact that some people do is a testament to how unhinged everyone is in 2024. The Cybertruck is terrible based on what? It's an incredible piece of technology, and everyone who owns one loves it. Twitter is a dumpster fire—fine. I couldn't care less about Twitter, but at least it's not heavily moderated like its competitors. If you don't like Twitter, don't use it. SpaceX is very successful by every metric, even without Starship.

Nobody cares about minor model refreshes or yet another iteration of a driver assist technology. Tesla's only real release in many years is Cybertruck. They were supposed to have the Roadster out by now too, but that's years late. But if Tesla is really doing so well as you claim, why has their net profit significantly decreased two quarters in a row now? Why is their stock back at levels from 4 years ago? Why has it underperformed the S&P by 17 percentage points sinc ethen? https://apnews.com/article/tesla-earnings-second-quarter-sales-decline-8bdd0d655cddde90f534b41fd87edc4a https://apnews.com/article/tesla-earnings-second-quarter-sal...

  they did ship the semi though

    The semi is such a failure that I completely forgot about it. As far as I can tell, it's shipped around 150 units in total. It's basically a complete non-factor for a company with a valuation of $600B.
