Summary
Elon Musk lashed out online Monday as Tesla stock plunged over 15%, wiping out its post-election rally and shedding 50% of its value since December.
Investors worried about market declines, recession fears, and Tesla’s growing controversy after Musk’s far-right rhetoric and mass government layoffs.
Musk falsely claimed Democratic donors funded anti-Tesla protests and linked critics to Jeffrey Epstein. He amplified conspiracy theories blaming arson attacks on Democrats.
Despite his efforts, Tesla’s collapse cost Musk $23 billion in a single day.
You would rather be a slave willing to die a horrible death, so one man will be a little more angry?
Musk will never know being poor, no matter if all his stock is devalued. He will never be left to fend for himself or worry about his electric being cut off. Will always have servants cleaning up after him. Sure, whatever “power” he has may be gone without his massive wealth, but there are 1000 more just as evil who would take his place.
Sure, a little schadenfreude is in order. But I certainly wouldn’t want to suffer that greatly just so musk can have a few more temper tantrums and things to remain the same.
