If you own two businesses and are putting one of them in jeopardy for no good reason, that’s still quite dumb.
I don’t know if it is drugs, or some neural damage caused by covid, but his recent actions didn’t bring him any profits only loses. Tesla is getting less and less sales despite sales of EVs going up.
I think it’s the drugs. He used to be at least somewhat sensible. In recent years he’s just been acting totally bonkers. But having unchecked power will do that to you too, of course.
I mean there were some signs earlier (of course those who know him will say he always was an asshole, but at least he was better at masking it) it was 2020 when he went full bonkers.
Would it help at all if he could shift the blame onto government policy?
I don’t pay much attention to things I can’t afford, but I remember reading a short conspiracy theory that Musk would absolutely love it if someone were to turn the market against EVs/Tesla, because he needs/wants Tesla to fail by excuse of “government” and not because he’s running into the ground. Exhibit A: AI Self Driving Exhibit C: Cybertruck.
Looks better on his resume that way? Gotta preserve that image to preserve that income.
In that case he miscalculated, because the Tesla is failing at the benefit of the competition.
Tesla did help to cross the chasm for EV, but instead of maintaining lead in the area it is right now on the path to irrevelance and largely thanks to Musk.
As for the prices, I don’t know what country you live in, but in the US EVs now cost about the same as ICE.
Also for cyber truck, yeah that’s a total failure. I mean I see few of them in my area, but it feels like people bought it more to show that can spend that much, but it feels like they have some regret. Right now I see more and more people covering them with wraps too make them look a little bit nicer. I expect that they will quickly disappear.

Well, drugs is obvious, but covid is also known to cause cognitive issues: https://theconversation.com/long-covid-puzzle-pieces-are-falling-into-place-the-picture-is-unsettling-233759

Your guess is as good as mine.
