    Literally every single day we have idiots doing Musk’s PR work for free.

    Downvote Musk spam. The billionaire doesn’t need your help ensuring his businesses stay in the 24 hour news cycle.

      Counter point: If I didn’t hear how badly he runs his businesses, or how bad his company’s products are. I would have easily bought one or more of his products.

      I have backed out of Tesla pre-orders because of the bad publicity, many reports of bad build quality, and terrible business decisions.

      If this was a puff piece, I honestly wouldn’t have bothered posting it.

      I checked the Business Insider news feed last week. Within 9 hours they posted 8 (!) Musk “news” stories. It’s ridiculous.
