View Full Version : How screwed is Tesla?

Aside from the political standpoint, BYD just announced that their new charging stations can recharge a battery in 1/3rd of the time that a Tesla staion can.
And then the new Mercedes CLA can go 500 miles on a full battery (where the Model-3 can only go 350) and it costs around the same price.
https://autos.yahoo.com/mercedes-takes-biggest-swing-yet-094531094.html
The Mercedes CLA also just has a much better aesthetic and simply looks cooler than any Tesla which badly need a revamp and haven't changed much since their inception.
And then, yeah, the politics. Europe has stopped buying them, and China sales have fallen off. Their main demographic was left leaning eco-minded people, good-ole-boys aren't buying Teslas. They are being vandalized left and right, and dealerships can't even give them away right now.

Musk predicts that Optimus robots could generate over $10 trillion in revenue long-term, potentially becoming the most valuable part of Tesla's business.

Musk makes lots of predictions and promises that fail. He promised to have the US getting around in self-driving cars by now, but Tesla has fallen behind in that race and Waymo (owned by Google) is leading the country in self driving vehicles.
He also promised to have humans on Mars by now, but we all know that will never happen.
Twitter (X) was supposed to be the "Everything App". A place where you can do just about anything online you can imagine. Pay bills, make sports bets, buy stocks, make purchases at stores, etc. It will never be that.
So I wouldn't hold my breath on Tesla robots taking over, odds are it is another broken promise that will end up losing to another company who is more focused.

Bigger and better things for humanity? You just made a thread labeling him the false prophet. Wouldn't that mean he is going to usher in hell on Earth? This is similar to you labeling Trump the anti-Christ but at the same time you side with him on everything he is doing. Very strange.

These car companies would do better if they would go to a subscription model.
Automate the stations to swap batteries vs charge.
They can charge at a more economical time but also have a stock ready. This would completely eliminate the major issues.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14513255/Ross-Gerber-ultimatum-Elon-Musk-Tesla-CEO.html
A major Tesla investor made the stunning decision to call on Elon Musk to step down as head of the company as its stock prices plunge amid a nationwide boycott.
Ross Gerber went as far as to say that Musk has 'destroyed' the electric vehicle maker's reputation due to his work as the head of President Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency.
'I think Tesla needs a new CEO and I decided today I was going to start saying it, and so this is the first show that I'm saying it on,' Gerber told host Darren McCaffrey on Sky's Business Live on Tuesday.
'It's time for somebody to run Tesla,' he continued, arguing that Musk has stretched himself too thin across his work at DOGE and at X.
'There are too many important things Tesla's doing, so either Elon should come back to Tesla and be the CEO of Tesla and give up his other jobs, or he should focus on the government and keep doing what he is doing, but find a suitable CEO of Tesla.'
Gerber went on to say Tesla is 'absolutely' in crisis, as Business Insider reports that its shares plummeted 53 percent since reaching a record high in December, and its market value plunged by more than $800 billion during the same time period.
'The company's reputation has just been destroyed by Elon Musk,' he argued. 'Sales are plummeting, so yeah, it's a crisis.
'You literally can't sell the best product in the marketplace because the CEO is so divisive.'

You agreed with Trump on the vaccine... did you not? Trump got booed by his own MAGA crowd on that issue. I guess that makes you a Trump supporter.
I've called Trump a socialist many many times on this forum... I don't side with him on everything... and when I say bigger & better, I'm talking about technological advancements... so just because technology is improving does not mean it's good for humanity. Hell, I remember a world without the internet, those were better times.
Either way the false prophet, The Antichrist or any wolf in sheep's clothing is going to use means of deception and have something to offer, or be agreeable on many issues.
If I agree with Hitler that 2+2 = 4 and that the sky is blue... does that make me a Nazi? This is where the Liberal Left have lost touch with reality... it's like you are wanting to promote a woke retarded agenda that has no common sense just to oppose Trump. Sorry, but unfortunately I'm going to agree with the antichrist & false prophet on a few things because I can't go against common sense.

Dooms, in relation to the Bible the "wolf in sheep's clothing" is someone who is claiming to be a man of Jesus but is secretly luring everyone to Satan. It's nothing to do with someone who is getting a following through the betterment of society.
Lying about being Christian is what makes one a "false prophet".
Last I looked Elon was atheist, although now that he has decided to go hard right, wouldn't surprise me if he claimed to be Christian.

As far as stock goes? Disney has probably peaked. But Tesla is currently trading at a P/E ratio of 113. Meaning if you purchased the entire company, it would take 113 years to make your money back at it's current revenue. And it's revenue is shrinking rapidly right now.
Nvidia who is supposed to rule the future of the AI industry only has a P/E of 40.
For a regular company that maintains constant profits, a P/E of 20 is ideal. For a growth stock with a bright future? A P/E of 30 or 40 is okay. But a P/E of 113 who's profits are trending down? unsustainable.

Elon IS Tesla. Who regularly spews hatred toward the left every single day on Twitter. I am sure right now he is typing up some post trying to convince you that half the country suffers a mind virus. He is no victim here.
Bud Light? just having a trans person in a commercial isn't even political. They didn't even take a shot at the right. Caitlyn Jenner is right leaning. And on top of that the company as a whole didn't create the ad. It was one woman in the marketing department.
Disney is the same story. Like having a black lead in a movie is political? Cry me a river.

No I do not support burning vehicles. But I would be worried about the company as a whole because of it.
And on that note, Tesla insures it's own vehicles. They do not use an insurance company. So all those vehicles that are vandalized? Tesla themselves has to pay for it.

‘Fascist and tyrannical’: US vaccine mandates induce rightwing hysteria
Thu 16 Sep 2021 02.00 EDT
When Joe Biden announced sweeping federal coronavirus vaccine requirements for 100 million Americans, the White House was braced for objections from Republican opponents.
But this being 2021, the rightwing backlash has gone way beyond mere political debate into the realm of incendiary language that, analysts fear, could translate into direct and violent action.
President Biden Speaks On Administration's Plan To Combat Delta Variant<br>WASHINGTON, DC - SEPTEMBER 09: U.S. President Joe Biden speaks about combatting the coronavirus pandemic in the State Dining Room of the White House on September 9, 2021 in Washington, DC. As the Delta variant continues to spread around the United States, Biden outlined his administration's six point plan, including a requirement that all federal workers be vaccinated against Covid-19. Biden is also instructing the Department of Labor to draft a rule mandating that all businesses with 100 or more employees require their workers to get vaccinated or face weekly testing.
In South Carolina, Governor Henry McMaster vowed to fight “to the gates of hell to protect the liberty and livelihood of every South Carolinian”. Tate Reeves, the governor of Mississippi, tweeted: “The vaccine itself is life-saving, but this unconstitutional move is terrifying.” JD Vance, a conservative running for a Senate seat in Ohio, warned: “Only mass civil disobedience will save us from Joe Biden’s naked authoritarianism.”
And the rightwing media went further, casually tossing around terms such as “authoritarian”, “fascist”, “totalitarian” and “tyrannical” to characterize the US president’s mandate that all employers with more than 100 workers require their employees to be vaccinated or test for the virus weekly.
Wow... JD Vance taking a page from the leftist playbook and calling for Mass Civil Disobedience.
This is how Liberals would've acted had Trump pulled this move...

That is how it plays out for every civilization in every country since the dawn of mankind.
Political division is common. What would be uncommon is if the entire population all agreed on everything.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divide_and_rule
and divide & conquer is very common as well.
In politics, the concept refers to a strategy that breaks up existing power structures, and especially prevents smaller power groups from linking up, causing rivalries and fomenting discord among the people to prevent a rebellion against the elites or the people implementing the strategy. The goal is either to pit the lower classes against themselves to prevent a revolution, or to provide a desired solution to the growing discord that strengthens the power of the elites.
The principle "divide et impera" is cited as a common in politics by Traiano Boccalini in La bilancia politica.

Musk makes lots of predictions and promises that fail. He promised to have the US getting around in self-driving cars by now, but Tesla has fallen behind in that race and Waymo (owned by Google) is leading the country in self driving vehicles.
He also promised to have humans on Mars by now, but we all know that will never happen.
Twitter (X) was supposed to be the "Everything App". A place where you can do just about anything online you can imagine. Pay bills, make sports bets, buy stocks, make purchases at stores, etc. It will never be that.
So I wouldn't hold my breath on Tesla robots taking over, odds are it is another broken promise that will end up losing to another company who is more focused.
Mars seems hard to imagine. I remember talking with friends who truly believe we will have life extending medical care (like living hundreds of years ) and colonize mars. I wanted to clarify whether they meant sustainably. I don’t see how we ever get people living on mars using what they can get there.
I could see a research base if we can continue to bring supplies. Likely they would have an issue and all die, but they’d keep doing it.
Stuff like Total Recall or PKD novels is what people think, and I doubt it. Self driving cars are probably not able to be made due to theory. They need to start with a self driving lane and have self driving routes from it. I can see how it would work, but it makes you wonder if many mass transit stations in cities might be better.
Free driving is bound for disaster. Needs ‘tracks’ to guide and then when you get off, you have to drive again.

we'll colonize our entire solar system eventually and ultimately our entire galaxy as long as we don't end up destroying ourselves first.
once we recognize and master our need for self-preservation (which is indeed a huge hurdle with nukes and all, greed and the hearts of men in general), there's no telling where technology will take us in the next millions or billions of years. the tragedy is that you and i will never get to see it. if there's any true meaning to the reason of our existence as humans, it's to replicate and reproduce to be able to get to the point of achieving those feats as a civilization. so in that vein we're simply sacrificial pawns in our own game of human evolution.

Obviously it isn't the "electric" part that Dems have an issue with. It is the Nazi part. The EV market overall is still growing, but Tesla revenue is shrinking. They are losing ground in electiric.
What is funny though is seeing right wing conservatives defend Tesla cars to the death, even though they own Ford F-150s and would never buy a Tesla.

yeah but the derangement and wild flailing from the left around elon is staggering. granted, it were for the right reasons such as the cuts to ss and the absence of cutting ANY corporate subsidies or slashing pentagon waste and holding arms contractors to account up to this point so far then it would be warranted. but i never hear any of that, either here or in the mainstream news. it's elon derangement on one side and elon enslavement on the other. i don't think anyone is genuinely following what elon is doing and considering the positive or negative implications of it.

It is for 1,000 different reasons. Elon is a never ending source for "wild flailing" I am sure as I type this Elon is tweeting something that will give people more reason to not buy Tesla.
Never before has an oligarch been thrust into our faces like this. It is to the point where I am now seeing many of the right distance from defending him, or flat out disapprove.

Musk has Aspergers and in some ways he is very gifted. He can hyper-focus to a much greater degree than neurotypicals can. He can grind away at tasks for long periods of time without burning out. But in other ways he is a complete moron. Mostly socially. It reminds me of Bobby Fischer, who was a chess genius but was also a very deranged racist Nazi who couldn't relate to others.
And just like a child in middle school with autism, Musk is alone in a corner without a real friend in the world. It most be very surreal to be on top of the world like that, with everyone hanging on your every tweet, and still be so alone.
