yeah but Grok has "real-time access to X"... sounds like a game changer to me

lololololol

IMO so much cooler than cybertruck:
It's more modular, for sure.

InsideEVs: I Saw The Tesla Cybertruck Up Close. It Still Looks Horrible





TSLA literally showing cracks

must admit that i really like the design

Yeah nice that looks like an actual truck and not the Marine transport vehicle in the movie Aliens

That's what sub-10 micron accuracy manufacturing looks like.

hey guys , long time.

i have been a tesla bear since pre2019 (obvs too early) and while right on all the vaporware (im sure i posted here many times) and its delays, stock action killed my roll , but i have a question regarding elon and would like thoughts from the community.

i never trusted elon and always thought he had ulterior motives when doing something, so obviously im gonna be biased but what do you guys think , of Elon visiting Israel AND THEN telling companies who advertise on twitter to gft for his viewed antisemitic retweets and likes ?

that makes zero sense to me and while everyone loves what he did in telling disney and others to to **** themselves, the action of going to Israel right before that makes his next move suspect .

did he get assurances of funding from Israel? did he see something else ?

my line of thinking is he got something he needed from there and now isnt as worried about ad dollars as much.

thoughts?

Elon is right. A person is entitled to their opinion, even if those opinions are anti sematic, anti gay, anti Ukraine or racist. 95 out of 100 people might disagree with those opinions, but you are still entitled to them.

The problems in the world arise, when one dictator such as Putin or Hitler, decide what is right for everybody.

Apple and Disney are woke hypocrites. They have pulled their ad dollars from Twitter, but are still on the platform. You can go visit the Disney or Tim Cook Twitter page.

Of course they are. But others are entitled to not associate with those that have opinions they object to. Actions don't happen in a vacuum.

Can I use the N Word ?

I think hes just unhinged. Possibly has lost his mind due to drug binges the last few years.

What I am sure of is that hes way deep into that twitter circle jerk. He posts and gets praise no matter what he says. You can see him pause and scan the crowed for laughs every time he says something edgy in that interview. And the reactions are certainly split. On twitter, all the right wing grifters and edge lords with pepe avatars are knobbing him off for the gfy comment. Literally everywhere else is wondering wtf is wrong with this guy.

If money is coming from anywhere is Saudi/Russia. The Saudi's were his original biggest backer buying twitter. Twitter is actively pushing pro Russia narratives and storylines. Seems unlikely Israel would fund him with that group but I guess anything is possible.

No to what? That people are entitled to their opinions? Or that people are entitled to associate with whom they choose?

When you advertise on Twitter, you're not saying that you like Elon Musk.

You are trying to advertise your product to the hundreds of millions of people that use that platform.

If people don't like using Twitter, over time they won't be there.

it really is though

there's countless verticals to attack on an advertising campaign

twitter holds no monopolies, there are no demographics they have exclusive access

and frankly, you can far more targeted advertising done in other social networks

the overwhelming majority of ads i see on twitter are not targeted to me in the slightest and this is indicative of their inability to properly profile their customer base

when you see an ad on facebook it's because the company specifically wanted someone of your age range, location, gender, estimated income level, & areas of interest - it was not just an ad to people in your region but to you specifically

likewise, google offers the same targeting as almost everyone else - you can look at the profile google created about you based on your search history and it's incredibly accurate

even retailers do this, like target profiles their customers based on purchase habits and infamously predicted a teenage pregnancy before she even told her parents

twitter has none of this, it's easily the nut low for online advertising, so any decisions to advertise there are going to be because of an active decision to have a big presence on twitter - which historically has been the case as a lot of upper management have often used twitter engagement/followers as a good metric for success - now that the platform has less of a wholesome nature to it, the prestige factor has dramatically diminished and thus so have the advertising dollars

I assume you drink Bud Light.

Apple, Disney and others aren't pulling ads from Twitter, because they are not as good as Google or Meta at targeted advertising. They are pulling ads from Twitter, because of anti sematic comments that Elon Musk made, but those comments don't reflect the hundreds of millions of other people, who use the platform.

Wow incredible counter argument.

Yeah I drink Bud light.

I'll buy you a Bud sometime.

Grrrrrr.

The advertiser exodus literally started when Musk took over. Its not entirely related to anti semitic comments, though that probably didn't help recently.

Yes a lot of companies are way to the left these days and they don't like their products, beside a comment that might be for example, racist.

But again, that comment doesn't reflect the company doing the advertising or the hundreds of millions of other people who use the platform.

Unfortunately, bigotry will always be a part of our world, but it can't be used an excuse to limit free speech.

Who is trying to do that?

Free speech is a government thing. Twitter has literally nothing to do with free speech.

You can't be racist and bigoted on 2+2. Do you think they are limiting free speech? Do you think 2+2 as a company is way to the left? (Hint: Mason and Dave notoriously get lambasted by the left any time they post in politics)

Free speech is not a government thing. The first amendment of the United States states that

“Congress shall make no law prohibiting the freedom of speech”

Congress isn't the government? Strange.
