Alex jones is back on twitter after an Elon poll. Discuss.

Also Tucker interviewed Mr. Jones on his X show, was not censored. LOLZ "They're turning the fogs gay!" (confirmed true, BTW)

Saw this in person yesterday …
:notsure: that wiper will work. The size was nice. About same size as taco … I expected it to be bigger somehow ..
But they “won’t show interior for 3-6 months” after
“Initial minimum orders are delivered”

:yeahok:

Interesting that they have it roped off when all Musk wants to do is rabble on about how tough the thing is.

I still don’t think it’s real… at least in a sense of a mass produced vehicle that can be purchased/registered in the US.

Correct! They are just hand built prototypes for now.

From my understanding, it still hasn't gone through the required testing to be able to be sold in the US.

Meanwhile these clowns have access
Well, the truck was conjured up by an assclown, so it seems rather on-brand to use it as a backdrop for a group of clowns mumbling about washing your ass.

This has all been known for years and years. Media just now starting to piece together things. Total fraud.

NHTSA is either massive incompetent or corrupt. I originally thought the former, but now I think it's the latter. Too much smoke.

Interesting read for sure... for the record I had 0 mechanical issues with my teslas in 5k miles. But sample of 2 cars only and super low miles.

This is fascinating as well. I think Tesla appeals to the WORST drives period. Because most are not car people and never wanted to be... a lot of first time drivers from other countries here also... relying on the "self driving" as a crutch. IT is kind of terrifying.

It's pretty clear it's fraud. There is no data that supports that Autopilot and FSD are safer than human drivers. Tesla claims to have the data, but doesn't release it for anyone to see.

If the systems worked anywhere near as well as Tesla claims they do, there's no way they would top the OEM charts in accidents, no matter the driver.
