„If somebody wants to stay in their house, that’s great and they should be able to,“ he said. „But to say they cannot leave their house and that they will be arrested if they do: that’s fascist. That is not democratic; this is not freedom. Give people back their goddamn freedom.“

Elon Musk says shelter-in-place orders during COVID-19 are ‘fascist’
“The expansion of shelter-in-place, or as we call it, forcibly imprisoning people in their homes, against all their constitutional rights, is, in my opinion, breaking people’s freedoms in ways that are horrible and wrong, and not why people came to America and built this country,” Musk said. “What the fuck!”

Saudi Arabia Might Not Fund Elon Musk’s Take-Tesla-Private Plans After All
In August alone the entrepreneur has become the subject of an SEC investigation, made a dubious Twitter announcement about taking his company Tesla private, and gave a teary interview to the New York Times, causing Tesla shares to plummet.

Elon Musk whining on Twitter but admitting SpaceX and Tesla were started with $4.9 billion in public funds that he grifted while cutting the public out of all decision-making and profit was a nice surprise. America = subsidize the rich, privatize profits
Sorry Elon Musk, there’s no clear evidence Autopilot saves lives
Tesla has also claimed that its cars have a crash rate 3.7 times lower than average, but as we’ll see there’s little reason to think that has anything to do with Autopilot.
