Ok, it looks like that’s not quite what happened. Apparently, the account that was suspended was an old one the reporter hadn’t been using and was suspended before the article came out.

That whole thread reeks of biased short seller.

All cars catch on fire sometimes, but apparently Teslas are death machines (and allegedly do it every time they crash, which is easily verified to be false as long as you actually use real objective sources not randoms on social media).

I’m sure there’s people who believe this crap, but if you actually look at the stats they show something completely different.

High energy crashes kills people regardless of fuel type. High energy crashes are also more likely to cause a fire.
