Elon Musk admitted to using two secret alternate accounts on his social media platform X (formerly Twitter) in a deposition for a lawsuit against the billionaire. He said that he used some accounts on the social media site outside of his main public account when he was asked to clarify if he used an account on X that had been linked to him by several users on social media. Some users posted a screenshot of his X interface last year in which the additional account appeared to be visible.

rofl as if he was ever good for Tesla... Outside of strongarming the few government contracts, he's been an overtly negative impact onvthe brand and now everyone laughs at Teslas instead of viewing them like the iphone of electric cars.

... but you go off about how he's good for ANY company...

They kinda are the iPhone of electric cars.

Twenty years from now idiots will be telling me 'I know you think they're overpriced and locked down but my apps carry over and I just don't have the time to learn something new!'

Yea but normies still think iphones are decent, for the most part. Now even Tesla owners admit they're shit.

That's quite a big difference when it comes to the health of a company.

Sadly it's only our bubble where we see tesla owners hate on them, normies posting on Facebook and tiktok still drool over them simply as a symbol of wealth.
