Elon loves 3 things:

1) committing crime
2) knocking up random women
3) talking shit

...and folks have the nerve to say the American Dream is dead.

Welp.

I know this is Elon, and we're all supposed to make our whole opinion about everything that he does entirely dependent on our political leanings & whether we like fewer things being banned on twitter, but as someone who's pretty lukewarm on the entire premise of Tesla in general, and a hater of self-driving cars on the public roads specifically, this newest one seems to be like 2/3 of these federal cases that are pretty transparently overblown for political targeting purposes, particularly while gigantic swaths of F500 executives mislead investors on an institutional scale.

Elon's had several cases against him. Back to when democrats loved him. This one in particular probably started before he bought Twitter.

Dude obviously doesn't care about the rules, so shouldn't be a surprise whenever he fucks around and finds out. Matter of time before he got got for spitting bullshit on his earnings calls.

He is simply the Pump King... I was just thinking the other day about Elon telling investors on multiple earnings calls that Teslas were appreciating assets because robotaxi feature would be coming in a year or two...that was in 2018/19. No one will ever achieve pump levels Elon has generated...ever. He is the GOAT.

And people think he's not trolling on X.

On the flip side, it's kind of amazing how people can study the markets for decades and have no awareness of the rage that's percolated through the individual lives that are decimated by things like institutional levels of short-selling by an exploitive hedge fund class, and that these individual & sympathizers may look for ways to leverage pain points in the short-selling process to try and exact revenge. And how they create incentives for lots of others to jump in alongside when that revenge can spike profits 30%.

I feel like if one's life is getting decimated by institutional short sellers, they're either picking unbelievably bad stocks or they're working for a company in which they know that long term employment is already fairly uncertain. Propping up shit tier companies because of some populist sentiment that is derived by some insane sense of efficient market behavior is crazy, imo.
