"I can stay homeless longer than the market can stay irrational" buddy, I've got bad news for you...
"I can stay homeless longer than the market can stay irrational" buddy, I've got bad news for you...
chef's kiss levels of layered irony here.
A)The market distributing housing based on gambling instead of need is irrational
B) still believing TSLA will somehow redeem itself instead of continuing to slowly unravel like a cheap coat is irrational
C) preferring homelessness to losing investment positions already massively losing value is irrational, literally sunk cost fallacy, but HODL my dude 🦍💎👏🤑
D) if we ignore the insane predatory distribution of housing as a moral issue and accept this bizzaro world distribution system as it is, YOU'RE THE MARKET ASSHOLE. THE ONLY REASON TSLA EVER GOT SO HIGH WAS BECAUSE OF IRRATIONAL MANIACS LIKE YOU ENDLESSLY PROPAGANDIZING MUSK, SOY FACING WHILE LICKING HIS BOOTS AND CONVINCING YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO SO THE SAME. YOU'RE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS THE MARKET ACTUALLY CORRECTING FOR A GODDAMN CHANGE, AND YOUR RESPONSE IS TO DOUBLE DOWN? YOU'RE GOING TO DIE. YOU'RE GOING TO DIE BEFORE THE MARKET WILL EVER BE RATIONAL, BECAUSE MARKETS DON'T MAKE RATIONAL DECISIONS, AND YOU'RE A MORTAL LITTLE SPECK OF EMBODIED HUMAN CAPITAL AND WHEN THE MACHINE HAS NO USE FOR YOU IT WILL DISCARD YOU WITHOUT A SECOND THOUGHT. BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD LINE MUST GO UP.
E) living in a Tesla is a terrible decision. You can buy a good minivan for less than $5000 Dollars and do a no build camper build in it for much better quality of life. Link for comrades who might genuinely need it--i know I might in the near future

You're viewing a single thread.
Step 1: Tesla goes bankrupt because it's a growing ball of contradictions falling further and further behind Chinese EVs every day
Step 2: Software updates and hardware manufacturing cease for cars and proprietary chargers
Step 3: Brain genius is homeless in his bricked car that looks expensive enough to rob
Step 2: Software updates and hardware manufacturing cease for cars and proprietary chargers
This is why I think we're gonna have a too big to fail situation.
If the market had stayed where it was in 2016~, yes. I think it'd get the GM-style bailout because it represents the country's manufacturing capacity for EVs more than it does an individual company. However I think there are two big dynamics which will fuck that:
-
Tesla was a company built in the 0% interest era. Its value is drastically overstated and divorced from what it actually produces in terms of scale or national importance. It's irrationally tied to a personality cult and hype which that personality has poisoned. The price spikes when Elon lies about a feature he won't deliver on and it falls when the freaks who love Tesla don't have a utopian lie to jerk themselves off over. He built it as a luxury brand, but the cars are cheaply made and the social prestige of owning one is rapidly eroding.
-
Tesla was an early entry into the EV market, but it is no longer the only American player. The recipients of those bailouts last time now have EV lines and much more established political influence. They're mostly union factories with the UAW in the favour of the democrats. Even if the best case bailout scenario happened and Tesla was nationalised, the government would have a small production line directly competing with Ford and GM without any kind of unique advantage beyond branding.
The dude basically has 2 million fire bombs on the road. Leaving them unsupported would be a disaster. He can pretty much hold us hostage like supervillain.
I need that Joker/Falling Down crossover. A 52 year-old supervillain powered by divorce and his children not returning his calls.
I was thinking more like Dr. Evil Musk tbh.

Other manufacturers are adopting Tesla's (formerly proprietary) NACS charging standard. Even if Tesla's car making operations fail, they will still exist as a charging station entity, maintaining the Tesla Supercharger network.
Lol. Lmao even.
