   Tesla to lay off everyone working on Superchargers, new vehicles

   Tesla is also getting rid of its public policy team, despite robotaxi ambitions.

     @arstechnica Musk unmasked himself as being an unhinged fascist, got called out, and is taking it out on the people who actually did the work needed to build up his companies. Which is predictable for any fascist in a position of power.

     @arstechnica this resembles what Elon did to Twitter. The man is a wrecking ball. He needs an intervention.

     I was going to say this will hurt their stock price, but sadly it likely won't. The only people investing are the 'true believers' and those who think firing employees helps businesses.

     @arstechnica Muskrat is xittering Tesla now? I see because it worked so great for his social media toy. What next Yaccarino taking over cars too?
     He's a giant mess. Governments have got to stop doing business with his companies.

     @arstechnica I'm waiting for Muskrat to announce a nationwide Hyperloop system and nationwide Boring company underground transportation system. Because wall st eats up those lies. Oh and a new fully autonomous flying car.....to match the flying monkeys coming out of his ass.

     @arstechnica ...almost like the push for green vehicles wasn't about being the frontrunners in a new personal vehicle ecosystem but was instead about getting government grants and forestalling investment in public transportation infrastructure after all.

     @arstechnica So they got rid of everybody working on or for the company's future and presumably they still want us all to pretend to be optimistic about their prospects?

     Replacing their CEO is a necessary condition for the survival of #Tesla though it may not be sufficient. A turnaround from a stale product palette would take years, their reputation is ruined, BYD and others have far lower costs and better battery tech. No wonder the execs who recently left have sold all their shares.
