    Tesla’s biggest issue is Musk.

    Tesla held a commanding lead over the other automakers in the self-driving segment a few years ago. Now they’ve all mostly caught up thanks to Musk’s unhinged firings. Tesla lost some of its best talent for no other reason than not wanting to work for an egomaniacal billionaire nut job.

    Tesla needs to fire Musk before he runs it into the ground just like he’s done to Twitter.

      This times 50x with SpaceX. There’s ample justification to nationalize it at this point with Musk’s erratic behavior.

      Tesla has never, ever, had anything remotely resembling a lead in autonomous vehicles. The actual AV industry doesn’t consider them part of it.

      Yes to fuck musk, but also…

      “Commanding lead” equals other manufacturers also didn’t have a functioning feature (and still don’t now).
