10. For some..... Tesla "taboo" to criticize
Mon Nov 18, 2013, 05:16 PM

I was criticized for attacking Tesla/Elon Musk.

People are under the false impression that Musk is somehow "pro-environmental" and is an Obama supporter. Both of which are false. So far, it's a matter of public record that Musk has misinformed the public about a number of issues. Their most recent pieces of misinformation involves misleading numbers on their financial reports.

These knee-jerk responses to Musk criticism are based on faith that Musk's mere statements equates to fact. His degree in science and business is an undergraduate degree. He is no genius other than projecting Nikola Tesla's genius onto himself via name association. Other than the affable outer shell, Musk is just another billionaire salesman like Donald Trump.
