Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

You know, set aside the boycott for a second, everyone knew Tesla was way, way, way over valued.
Like don't get me wrong, dude is a slimy rat and he's getting everything he deserves. But even way back in 2018/2019 I remember everyone saying Tesla was over priced by ten/fifteen fold.
So even ignore the whole boycott and a massive correction was bound to happen. It is so stupid Musk getting on TV and turning on crocodile tears because everyone is being mean to him. Dude, your company has been over valued for, at least as long as I remember, over half a decade.
This shit was bound to crash hard. That's how it works. Fly high, fall fast. Such a fucking bitch boy he is. Take your fucking correction just like everyone else.
Yeah, it was valued at more than multiple handfuls of other car companies combined - like all other US car companies combined, for example, ridiculous. Many investors have pointed out it’s an overvalued meme stock for years, that it’s just banking on Musk pulling more rabbits out of hats.
Respectfully disagree that this is a correction. To me correction implies that the stock was more or less fairly valued prior to the correction.
~not investment advice~
Elmo has hyperinflated his stock by lying repeatedly, documented for years. He has created such a massive awkward autistic echo chamber that a bunch of “the end is nigh people” began believing he’s the messiah to save us from Earth (let that sink in) and bring us to the promised glorious utopian paradise with luscious field, fertile lands and epic waterfalls… eh.. Mars. This spinning is Elmo’s only true value and why the boards of his companies put up with him.
Both Musk and Trump have this reality distortion field like Jobs had, but there’s almost nothing of substance underneath.
I don’t think this market is correcting. It may look like it for a while. The AI bubble and companies like Musk who are valued by groupies, not investors may actually really crash mush harder.
