Maybe it's because in 2016 Tesla claimed "that, as of today, all Tesla vehicles produced in our factory – including Model 3 – will have the hardware needed for full self-driving capability at a safety level substantially greater than that of a human driver". That was a lie: https://www.tesla.com/blog/all-tesla-cars-being-produced-now...
Maybe it's because Tesla lies about things as dumb as quarter mile times. There's simply no need to lie about it, but lying is just too much a part of the company culture:
You make some very sinophobic arguments in your posts. While I think it's right for the West to be cautious about China, I don't think wanting to cooperate with China makes a man a bad person.
Your post also quotes a number of opinion pieces that are politically partisan against Musk. It's easy to compile a list of hit pieces against a popular individual if you go looking in sources like Electrek, whose editor Fred Lambert spends most of his time bashing Elon on Twitter (usually without much substance, and certainly without any semblance of balance)
> You make some very sinophobic arguments in your posts
There is nothing sinophobic in seeing China as it is. There's nothing russophobic in seeing Russia as it is. There's nothing Muskophobic in seeing Musk as he is.
> I don't think wanting to cooperate with China makes a man a bad person.
Musk offers up plenty of criticisms of the US government. Here's a fun exercise for you: show me a single criticism of the Chinese government from Musk.

Uh huh. Tell me, have you (like Musk) pledged your commitment to China's core socialist values?
When Trump left office, leftwing folk needed a replacement boogeyman for their Two Minutes Hate.
Musk hate is entirely political.
