> You also have to remember that Tesla doesn't advertise. It's funny how persistent this myth is. Tesla has always advertised. Here's an ad from almost 5 years ago. Tesla's YouTube channel is nothing but ads: [LINK] Tesla ads to benefit Twitter: [LINK] [LINK] Tesla's advertising to try to convince shareholders to approve Musk's pay package: [LINK] It's a shame that Tesla has a tendency to lie in its ads, especially about things as trivial as quarter mile times where there's simply no need to lie. But Tesla went ahead and lied about it: [LINK] [this video]

The Cybertruck didn't outperform a Porsche 911 while towing a 911. Tesla lied to you. Elon lied to you: [LINK] [this video] [LINK] You have swallowed Tesla's advertising hook, line, and sinker. There's no point in repeating Tesla's lies.

Or maybe it's because Musk runs around calling people pedophiles: [LINK] Maybe it's because his behavior is increasingly erratic and he doesn't seem to care about Tesla anymore: [LINK] Maybe it's because Tesla employees describe him as a pigeon CEO because "he comes in, shits all over us, and then leaves.": [LINK] Maybe it's because he advocates for the submission of Taiwan to China: [LINK] And for the submission of Ukraine to Russia: [LINK] Maybe it's because he says "China rocks" while the US is full of "complacency and entitlement": [LINK] Maybe it's because he pledged his commitment to China's core socialist values: [LINK] Maybe it's because he called California's covid measures "fascist

The plug is just a plug. The more important part is the charging protocol and standard. That's CCS going forward. CCS now supports three plug types: Type 1 combo, Type 2 combo, and J3400. Older Teslas can't charge on these chargers because they don't have CCS support. Those cars will need to get a CCS retrofit. In general you shouldn't take anything Tesla says at face value. Lying is just too much a part of the company culture at Tesla. Tesla lies about things as dumb as quarter mile stunts. There was absolutely no need to lie about it, yet they just couldn't help themselves and they went ahead and lied about it anyway: [LINK] [this video] [LINK] Tesla never even ran the quarter mile.

The problem is Tesla and Musk have been lying about full self-driving for years: [LINK] In 2016 Tesla said 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: [LINK] Tesla even lies about things as dumb as Cybertruck quarter mile times: [LINK] [this video] [LINK] Tesla never ran that quarter mile. And the worst thing about it was the Cybertruck's lead engineer trying to rationalize the lie: [LINK] When your engineers lack commitment to basic honesty then you've got a sick company culture. Lying is just too much a part

Lying is part of the company culture at Tesla. For example, Tesla lied about the Cybertruck towing a Porsche over a quarter mile. It's a dumb thing to lie about, there was absolutely no need to lie about it, and yet Tesla went ahead and lied: [LINK] [LINK] [this video] Tesla never ran that quarter mile. And the worst thing about it was the Cybertruck's lead engineer trying to rationalize the lie: [LINK] When your engineers lack commitment to basic honesty then you've got a sick company culture.

Musk has no commitment to the truth or even reality. He lies constantly. He lies about things there's simply no need to lie about. He can't help himself. He's spent 10 years lying about Tesla's full self-driving: [LINK] [LINK] He lies about being good at video games: [LINK] He lies about Cybertruck quarter mile times: [LINK] [this video] Tesla never even ran that quarter mile. When your engineers don't have commitment to basic honesty then you've got a rotten company. And the fish rots from the head: [LINK] He enjoys and promotes conspiracy theories: [LINK] He dabbles in antisemitism: [LINK] He stokes partisan division over the Los Angeles fires: [LINK] And so on and so on.
