Summary

Elon Musk lashed out online Monday as Tesla stock plunged over 15%, wiping out its post-election rally and shedding 50% of its value since December.

Investors worried about market declines, recession fears, and Tesla’s growing controversy after Musk’s far-right rhetoric and mass government layoffs.

Musk falsely claimed Democratic donors funded anti-Tesla protests and linked critics to Jeffrey Epstein. He amplified conspiracy theories blaming arson attacks on Democrats.

Despite his efforts, Tesla’s collapse cost Musk $23 billion in a single day.

    Like, what in the actual fuck. How is it illegal to boycott Tesla? But it wasn’t illegal when all the rednecks wanted to boycott bud-light for having a pro gay add? This clown is a fucking joke.

      Because their boycotts usually consisted of buying a lot of the stuff they were angry about and then throw it away, burn it out shoot at it. 🤣
