Is there a new short sell campaign for tesla I'm unaware of?
ah yes, because any criticism of dear leader has to be a "short sell campaign"...
Not even criticism. Just a list of his promises without any interpretations.

Tweet controversial things confidently and erratically to build buzz, then just pretend you never said it, and be defended to the death by your horde of passionate believers who know it’s obvious what you really meant to say.

I don’t think Musk is actively as malicious as Trump but the Twitter playbook at least is quite similar.

Not only for nerds. Like Trump was for years, Musk is living rent free inside the medias head. They hate him and yet they continue to make him.

Some of these are not particularly strong, and they missed several significant ones (Roadster, Cybertruck, Semi, refreshed Model S).
Would love if they linked to a follow-up, showing wether Musk delivered or not on his claims.
At least someone is thinking about all of these things...
