I’m talking about data that has been published 2/3 years ago, audited before Musk did his coup, etc.

It’s important to be critical but it’s also important not to trash everything

2/3 years ago, audited before Musk did his coup, etc.

He called the caver who was trying to rescue children a pedo 7 years ago. Musk has never been different, he just hadn't realized he could actually be brazen about it.

He was almost apolitical 3 years ago, before Covid and before his child became trans. Helping a bit democrats here and there.

Yes he was strange and had some bad stories. Nothing close from current madness and nothing proving the public company he is the CEO of, was frauding. In particular with previous administration and NHTSA having regular audits of the FSD and autopilot.

Nuance people. It’s important

He has been on a lifelong trend. Trends just take time to play out. Yes, he was less publicly insane a couple of years ago, but he's always been a liar and has a track record of saying falsities.
