Tesla dealerships are getting protested and, in some cases, vandalized. Sales are down on 9 of the top 10 countries Tesla sells in. Yet Tesla stock is up. Twitter is a cesspool of nazi-themed bots, and somehow just pulled in $1bn and raised its valuation back up to $44bn.

How is any of this possible? It seems really artificial to me, but I don’t really understand business.

    I don’t think I can think of a better metric.

    While it’s true that half of the world thinks he’s a shithat the other half thinks the man thinks this man embodies some kind of good.

    I fell for it to, back in 2016 I thought the man was going to do great things for humanity
