The most important thing I try to remember as a Tesla investor is that Elon Musk does not prioritize his actions in accordance with maintaining Tesla's stock value in the short term. He thinks "big picture". I feel like we are setting up for even more volatility moving forward. And I think the "destroy Musk with disinformation" apparatus is only just getting warmed up. It is going to be bumpy ride.

Well the fun part for me is how Elon is now going to work for the government, has has all these companies, he also is number one in doom ( a video game) how the fuck he have all this time?

Personal opinion, I don’t like the hyperbolic or bombastic intros. Im coming to listen to a conversation/discussion on various topics and conversation is not intense music and cuts to different parts of the convo. It feels jarring to me, to click on what I am anticipating and is a podcast, and there’s siege music in the background and dramatic talking points pulled out. Feels like I’m coming in to an “edited” video or jumping in to something crazy which is not what I am looking for. Conversation has a natural build and tempo and the intros are in stark contrast to the product. Additionally, probably just unnecessary editing time. I know it’s a shittier JRE… I really enjoy your discussions and perspective, thought I would provide my feedback.

A LOT of people are in for a big surprise. Elon is a great engineer, entrepreneur, and I imagine, father. But he is not infallible. Case in point: has he said ANYTHING about what Israel is doing or about how there is so much influence by Israel on US politicians? Did he even say ANYTHING about why our elected officials were more interested in funding war than helping Americans DURING the recent hurricanes and floods? We cannot expect him to be any less corrupt OR corruptible than any other person in his position. And we should not give him a pass just because we are being made rich by him. We have to speak truth to power ALWAYS and not give him a pass simply because we love him. The PUBLIC should be the public trust bullshit meter. But the public is easily manipulated. On both the left and right.

I've been watching Tesla like a hawk since 2013 because I am a climate change activist and thought Tesla was the promising company in the world to contribute massively to the transition to emission-free energy. I've never seen Tesla do anything that compromised its mission. Elon is the reason why -- he stands firm against the profits first forces while ensuring that the company is profitable. In my opinion Elon is a heroic figure. Notwithstanding his support for Trump. I also think he'll learn and make the necessary adjustments. We need to transition to a sustainable economy as quickly as possible. The Chines, the Norwegians, and Tesla are leading the way for humanity as a whole. I would like to see a new political party -- the Solutions Party. ID the world's leading problems and solve them. Actually solve them. A party like that would win elections and the Dems are certainly not that party. Thinking that the Republican Party is a solutions party is totally impossible for me to understand. People make mistakes so I will not write Elon off. In fact he seems to be one of the very best public figures fo acknowleding his errors.

As far as Soros, I'm hearing the old if ur not doing anything wrong what have u got to hide BS perspective. We ALL deserve our privacy, Musk chooses to be in the public eye. Soros works in financial markets where his words could cause a panic or bull rush. If Elon says he is going to put a rocket on Mars in 10 years, that doesn't affect anything significantly. When he talks about his stock however, he has gotten some push back from legal minds. Musk is as trustworthy as any high visibility individual. I hear ppl whine about his projection was off 1 or 2 years, but that is more naysayers kicking someone when they are down. To his crredit, he has gotten up, dusted himself off and proven his resolve. He is willing to say what he thinks b/c he thinks he is untouchable.

Nothing and no one can be “trusted” as it implies a universal understanding and knowledge from a perspective of all that which has come and gone… from the information being asked “trust with what exactly?” Instead we must have demonstrated a history of having a “great deal of confidence in” in the event that perspective, knowledge, and information do not align setting up those we seek to assume or accept “absolute trust “ The data suggests motive separation from intention, and programming untangled of each and every factor leading up to this “confidence” once that confidence is placed expect a better trajectory not perfect perceived outcome. Also do not judge those that are given confidence while they perform the role. They can be measured by means of action towards the mutually understood trajectory.

This issue with podcast is similar to the issue with mainstream media. If mainstream media told the truth and kept politicians accountable there would be no problem. Sure podcast can be an independent unbought voice and the mass amount of voices and relative ease of entry is a plus but that doesn't make them the complete solution. The paramount solution will always be the the propensity of the masses to be just, upright, and active rather that polluted, passive, and guilty. Podcasters can fall into the same trap as MM; be bought out like some KZbinrs, they can lie and cater to certain demographics and agendas, and they can be more easily silenced without or on an unfriendly platform.

You could be a good person doing good things, but also choose to respect or try to have privacy for you and your family. Elon chooses to engage in a public manner, which is less common, but of course which a lot of people respect. And he takes a lot of heat because even if he misspeaks, that makes the news - and sometimes even when he doesn’t he is misquoted or quoted out of context, misrepresented, etc.. But I understand one wanting to be private but still have an influence if they are able to on important things they see in the world (and some people are just less charismatic or more introverted- and not the best representatives for the cause they are trying to advocate for, and perhaps could even hurt the cause by being a poor spokesperson/bad public speaker). Especially in a world where money can “equal” free speech, I understand why supporting the people and causes that you think can do the most good in the world would be considered an important thing to do, if not a moral/ethical duty. One doesn’t have to be out there or try to be the star of the show (or have something in their ego that makes them need to be the hero all the time) or whatnot (unless perhaps they are on the spectrum and only see things as black and white, and feel that things must be said or or at least respond when asked about the things )… I don’t think I’ve ever really heard anything actually negative about George Soros (beyond people just not agreeing with a policy or a candidate he supports), but if no more than five comments want to reply with some relatively succinct thoughts or summaries, let me know, as I haven’t really ever heard anything… Perhaps it’s a bubble thing… I’ve heard negative allusions on Fox News, etc. (and maybe one theory that sounded unrealistic once, that I can’t even remember, but didn’t seem worth repeating at the time). One thing that might be of particular interest to me is any theories as to motivations if something is considered nefarious, or examples of questionable actions beyond supporting people who claim to try to help people (possibly at the expense of balanced budgets or in opposition to some religious fundamentalist beliefs?). I am fairly independent, but if it ever comes down to it, and we are able to afford to help ourselves with at least our necessities-and hopefully thrive-I would always come down on the side of helping the little person or person who has the least representation, if at all possible… Much more than five comments and it might be best to have a real time conversation, so certainly let me know if that might be helpful. Anyway, here’s to hoping in terms of Elon trying for the betterment of humanity, something that in the past he has claimed to stand for, and which he certainly has made actions that seem to match with that, over many decades…

I did not invest in Tesla to elect and support a regime that wants to harm our environment and our health. I did not invest in Tesla expecting its CEO would get involved in politics, become an ego maniac and make the absurd statements that he can run the US government's budget.

Lucky for you, Tesla did not do anything contrary to your beliefs. And you have to be pretty naïve not to see how much damage the outgoing administration did in comparison to the one before it. The world just got a lot better last week.

[@billyhack9673]

This is too strong to suit me. But yes, I did not expect TSLA CEO to get involved in politics. I mean I used to run a grocery store.

I think Elon needs to look at green nuclear cuz there’s no way I would go to Mars without something to back up solar.

[@billyhack9673]

Does a colony need to die because solar power failed?? Prolly.

[@richardfolden3860]

@@Goldsteinphoto Tesla had nothing to do with the election. So your second sentence is just pure nonsense. Your third sentence is hyperbole and not factual either. It seems like you’re having an emotional reaction to the fact that very few people support the nonsense that you do.

We will need a Ubi based off the total automated production percentage of the GDP to protect the consumer market from inevitable collapse due to automation ai and robotics lowering human value to near zero and destroying the consumer market while also bringing down the corporations with it in the process basically with this system we can calculate how much tools have helped us increase our production capacity and how many humans it would take to replicate that production capacity without those tools and have a Ubi that slide so the more we automate away production the more money we get to spend in the consumer market to protect it from inevitable collapse.
