When Reuters reported in April that Tesla had scrapped plans for a long-promised, next-generation $25,000 electric vehicle, the automaker’s stock plunged. Chief Executive Elon Musk rushed to respond on X, his social-media network.
“Reuters is lying,” he posted, without elaborating. Tesla’s stock recovered some of its losses.
Six months later, Musk appears to have backed into an admission that Tesla dropped its plans for a human-driven $25,000 car. He said in an Oct. 23 earnings call that building the affordable EV would be "pointless” unless the car was fully autonomous.
The way you write your argument out as questions makes you sound like Tucker Carlson or one of his “I’m jUsT aSkInG qWesTioNs” deciples.
It comes off as condecending and disingenuous, even if some of your points may be correct.
Condescending, sure, but I don’t see how this makes it disengenous, and I’m only responding in-kind to this user who continues to write snarky-ass, passive-aggressive replies rather than writing an actual rebuttal.
