There is a discussion on Hacker News, but feel free to comment here as well.
Anything Musk announces is a scam. Just look at that truck. Twice the price with half the features and years late. What about the robot that was just a guy in a suit? Swiss cheesing up LA’s ground for car traffic?
It’s nothing but lies masked under the guise of announcements and PR. Dude is a scam artist that the morons in power haven’t thrown in jail, yet.
Even HN has some real Musky stans that just can’t believe he “tried” the Hyperloop nonsense just to kill public transit. It is a known fact Musk hates public transit. It is a known fact car manufacturers, which Musky/Tesla is even if a very poor one, have historically lobbied against public transport. Heck! Cars are why our cities are designed the way they are and car makers lobbied to make them that way.
If I could buy a bus/train/subway pass every month instead of paying for a car and car insurance I would do so in a heartbeat. But instead I’m stuck in a suburban hellscape. People who think I would change my mind because congestion lessened are out of their ever loving minds. The only people still driving at that point would be the worst of the worst driver wise.
