I am a consumer who can clearly identify what’s a real improvement and what’s make believe political BS.
The quality of life of the American consumer is marked by revolutions.
there is a before and after Standard Oil, quality of life will never be the same as it was before.
before and after Ford
before and Microsoft
before and after Google
before and after Facebook
before and after Amazon
A car today is essentially the same as it was in 2002, the quality of life that Tesla brought to the table is essentially non existent .
If anything a 2002 dieael Benz or BMW was better refined and more durable
The only signal that Tesla brought to the attention is the pussyfication of Western society and climate change hysteria among the elites who are reasoning with timeframes which are completely at odds with regular people , who frankly speaking could care less about the temperature 120 years from now
All of them except Tesla which is a techno-utopian religion in which people can buy a stake in , therby giving hundreds of billions of dollars to the cult leader in advance for promises which will never be delivered.
Just like the church selling a spot in heaven to finance the construction of St. Peters Dome.
If you disappeared Tesla inc. overnight the number of people crying histerically because they’d think the world will come to a technological standstill without the omniscient space-Karen would vastly surpass the number of people complaining that nobody will be able to service their car.
When entities such as governments or companies try to leverage the credulity of the public and thus get in the business of selling hope for the future, that is the moment to leave as that entity is becoming a cult preying on its members
So naturally the press of the regime feels the need to attack him to please the great leader and propel his propaganda and a rivalry that solely exists in his head
Not to mention how every claim made by Misk is already accounted as in the bag as soon as one unit is produced.
Reality is that Gates is right, and he is just following the predictions by Vaclav Smil. By 2050 gas cars would make up no less than 75% of global cars. Similarly diesel semis will be 99.999%
As a consumer I want corporate attention to be focused on me, not people who will be alive 100 years from now.
I am also working on avoiding giving Misk and co. any of my tax money by moving to either Sao Paolo, Mexico City or Dubai
Point being there was some selective pressure for the trait of being able to act, put up a show and perform sexually.
Women who did that got to reproduce at a higher rate than those who didn’t.
Porn and sex work in general provides a special selection elevating those who inherited that trait in a very strong way
The Ferrari 250 GTO is getting smoked by Hyundais and Subarus nowadays.
Of course once you are done showing off you have the small inconvenience that you have to drop down and look at your car near the 250GTO.
Same thing for Teslas
The new Corvette C8 feels like it comes from Italy as well. In fact the Corvette has been Ferrari-zed both in external design as well as engine positioning
Just because VW has a controlling stake in Lamborghini doesn't make Wolfsburg the capital of supercar design. For a whole bunch of reasons, mostly cultural, it will always be that triangle between Florence, Milan and Turin.
Foxxcon might become big enough to buy Apple one day. Still if you were to visit the 2 HQs, and the 2 cities you'd understand where the devices are designed, regardless of the cap table and who owns who
Then you see the thing and it's ugly as sin outside, you get inside and it's cheap and empty with an iPad sticked there to save money on components.
The richest country on Earth can't possibly have that as their flagship car brand. China however considering where they were just 15 years ago, you look at a 2022 Geely and it feels like it's attacking the Japanese brands positioning and by the end of the decade they could take on the Germans. They will never be able to attack the Italians but Ferrari and Lamborghini are special and nobody can touch them anyway.
