That same anger fuels the decisions they a lot of content creators make. Angry people engage with content. Engagement equals ad revenue. Engagement equals endorsements. Engagement equals media deals.

Wait you mean to tell me Elon Musk lied?
No. Can’t be.
No. Can’t be.
From Robotaxis to Full Self-Driving, more and more of Tesla's promises around autonomous cars failed to materialize this year. (Unless something drastically changes in the next few hours, of course.)

I love the fact that ever bit of Tesla news since Tesla shareholders voted to give Elon that ridiculous pay package has been horrible for Tesla.
Empty promises. Lawsuits. The EU. And there’s Elon just being himself which well…yeah. But hey. Give him more money. lol

Despite a production capacity of 250,000 units per year, the Cybertruck is currently selling at a run rate of roughly 20,000-25,000 units annually.
If Tesla isn’t building Cybertrucks, it doesn’t need 4680 cells. And if it doesn’t need 4680 cells, L&F has no one to sell its cathode material to.

So tired of the arsonists being able to complain about the ashes of the fires they started with no real push back
#GVerse MTG just torched her own party:
She says her electric bill alone is up $100 since last year — and blasts Republicans for abandoning “America First.”
When Marjorie Taylor Greene is sounding like a populist, you know the base is boiling.

Instead of… making cheaper ink or making your products easily accessible without subs so more people buy the products.
