🚨The EU's Digital Services Act threatens freedom of speech GLOBALLY.
What they say: the DSA prevents the spread of "illegal content" and mitigates "systemic risks to civic discourse".
What actually happens: the EU controls online narratives by forcing the world's largest platforms to censor content that the Commission and a network of nonaccountable individuals and NGOs deem unacceptable.
⚠️The DSA does not protect democracy. It undermines the free exchange of ideas and information on which democracy depends.

For the records and for posterity.
The Cybertruck order rate far exceeds our production rate. We will try to make as many as possible before shutting down the line in about 8 months, but will have to return deposits for a lot of people.
This is not a case of Cybertruck being unprofitable, as has been misreported by legacy media, but rather that the opportunity cost of the complexity of Cybertruck is vastly outweighed by the value of incremental Cybercab production.

This is sadly true. American left is today like the European left. Violent while accusing others to be violent, intolerant, while accusing others to be intolerant, bigoted, while accusing others to be bigoted.
I will never forget how fiercely Charlie defended Dave Chapelle at the height of cancel culture, both publicly and privately. It didn’t matter if they had the same political beliefs — it mattered that they were subject to the same protections under the First Amendment as fellow Americans.
Every day it becomes more obvious… *that’s* the difference between the culture of the Right & the Left.
One side is literally willing to lay down their life to continue fighting for *everyone’s* right to express themselves. The other laughs on their podcasts about digging up that young man’s grave to “do it again,” dresses up as his corpse for Halloween, threatens to kill any and all other conservatives who agree with him, and sneers with the demonic ghouls in their audience about his death as a form of “comedy.”
We are not the same.
Shame on you, Dave. This is so beyond disgusting.

@Tesla I support this post, for what it is worth. This is not good.
Tesla Board - this isn’t a good look.
♦️ James Murdoch is a longtime Tesla board member with a fiduciary responsibility to shareholders. His Lupa Systems acquired the Vox Media Podcast Network, which distributes Scott Galloway & Kara Swisher’s Pivot podcast.
♦️ Galloway, an NYU Marketing Professor who chooses language deliberately, invoked traitors “lined up against a wall” and said Elon Musk should be treated the same. (Does he mean shot? Sounds like it.)
♦️ A few days later Galloway doubled down, said the words were incendiary, and he would say them again. This is not accidental. He did not misspeak.
Tesla board members should have ZERO LINKS to anything that may be construed as a call for violence against the Tesla CEO. (Perpetually identified as a key man risk). One option to clear the conflict is to cancel or sell the podcast. There are other options too.

I hope you are right, dear Brivael.
Today, I'm sad. For Texas, for this blue wave. But if Elon taught us anything, it's that losing a round means nothing. Here's why I'm not worried.
Texas sending a Democrat to the Senate for the first time in decades. The Senate and the House flipping. No point lying to ourselves: this is a real defeat.
But a defeat is not the end. They won a battle. We haven't lost the war.
Politics moves in cycles. Midterms almost always punish the party in power. What matters isn't one election night, it's the trajectory over ten, twenty, thirty years.
So look at the situation as it is. No denial, no panic. Understand what didn't work, what needs to change, and move forward.
The only real danger today isn't the result. It's losing your optimism. Discouragement does more damage than any electoral loss ever could.
Look at Elon. Every time the world declared him finished, he came back stronger. Rockets exploded, companies nearly went under, everyone bet against him. I have zero doubt he's the one who wins in the end.
As Corneille wrote: "To conquer without risk is to triumph without glory." If victory were easy, it wouldn't mean anything.
Keep your spirits up. Keep playing. Keep fighting on every front: ideas, culture, tech, the ground game.
Stay focused on victory. It won't come overnight. It will take time to build. But it will last, and it will be beautiful.
We get back up. We keep going.

Worst of humanity. In fact, this is not human. :(
If you sponsor this podcast, calling for the execution of Elon Musk, I will never use your product… and will buy from both of your top two competitors
This is unacceptable and dangerous.
This a dog whistle to murder someone because you disagree with them — and this is the same guy who joked about the assassination against President Trump.
Fuck this piece of shit.

Ten million people have watched a comedian accidentally destroy the entire TED talk industry.
He filmed the talk once at TEDxNewYork in 2014 and openly admitted he had nothing to say.
Speaking coaches charge $5,000 to teach the exact tricks he used in 6 minutes to say nothing at all.
His name is Will Stephen. He is a comedian from Late Night with Seth Meyers who was invited to give a real TED talk and used it to prove the format is a costume anyone can wear.
Every TED speaker opens with a question, tells a personal story, cites a scientist, and shows a chart. Stephen did all four in six minutes with zero content.
His entire formula fits on a napkin.
Gesture with both hands. Ask the audience a question anyone can answer. Tell a mildly embarrassing story so they say aww. Point to a stranger on a slide and call them important. Flash a chart of random numbers. Wear glasses with no lenses. The audience will think you are brilliant.
That last trick alone has probably cost the public speaking coaching industry a hundred million dollars in sessions clients should have skipped.
"If you watched me on YouTube with the sound off, you would think I was a genius."
That is Will Stephen on the TED stage, three minutes into the talk he was paid to give. He wasn't lying.
Executives pay $15,000 for a keynote coach and still open with a joke the room never laughs at. Founders rehearse their pitch for weeks and still sound like Stephen at minute four, saying "wagga wah, gabba gabba" with authority.
The talk is free on YouTube. The method is written across every TED speaker's playbook for ten years.
Stephen still writes for Seth Meyers. Almost none of the ten million viewers have stopped nodding at empty slides since.
The formula is free. The willingness to actually say something before your next keynote, pitch, or townhall is the entire edge.

That’s the trip I’d love to make, from Italy, to do exactly all those things. Please share here :)
It's official! I booked a flight to Austin for next week. 🇮🇹✈️🇺🇸
Two days ago, @devix195 contacted me to ask if I would like to join his nine-day trip to Austin to try the Robotaxi service, drive the Cybertrack and visit the Giga Texas factory, Starbase and the Tesla Diner.
It would be nice to meet some of you! As I'm joining late and can't take over the flight from the guy who had to cancel, I've had to book new flights and will arrive a day earlier than the rest of the group. So, on my first day in Austin, I will be on my own with no set programme.
I'm looking for suggestions for the evening of 5 November to the late afternoon of 6. How should I spend 24 hours in Austin? 😀

Precisely. SpaceX furure is too bright for many to even just conceive it.
Throughout my 20 something years in investing, SpaceX $SPCX is the largest arbitrage I’ve ever encountered. It’s not a misunderstanding in the usual sense — it’s a cognitive error at market scale, and that error is the edge for anyone willing to look.
Management has published guidance and data in the open; the spoon is right there in front of everyone. Yet large parts of the market still can’t see it, or simply refuse to, because the numbers are genuinely that extreme. I don’t know whether this window stays open for one year, two, or ten. But I suspect that whenever it closes, looking back will be one of the more interesting exercises in modern market history.

TSLA SHAREHOLDERS ARE # 14!!!
We did it!!! Great work everyone!!
The Tesla Retail letter in support of a $TSLA/$SPCX merger now represents over $10.2 BILLION dollars in Tesla shares - to put it into context, that is more shares than Baron Capital, Citigroup and ARK Invest COMBINED.
Kalshi betters may want to revisit the merger odds.
The Numbers - in just 2+ Days:
♦️ 25,710,618 shares
♦️ $10.2 billion in Tesla stock
♦️ 9,697 signers
Tesla and SpaceX don't just share a CEO; they share shareholders. 76% of signers (7,406) own both TSLA and SPCX, holding 19,774,447 shares.
The closest thing to this historic mobilization was ALSO Tesla retail: our 2024 letter (representing $4B of TSLA) supporting Elon Musk's incentive package & move out of Delaware. Neither would have been possible without the stellar skills of @TeslaBoomerMama.
Thousands of shareholders think Tesla and SpaceX are stronger together, and they back Tesla, the Special Committee, and Elon Musk.
