Well, they're suffering for a couple reasons. One of those reasons is they're not producing anything worth a shit. #Telsa hasn't produced a car worth a its tires in years. Twitter is a fucking dumpster fire. #xAI doesn't do anything. #BoringCompany makes holes in the ground and broken promises. #Neuralink has maybe three clients and they've got to be fucking insane to work with #ElonMusk. Add all that to the fact Musk is a fucking asshole. So yea, they're suffereing.

Business Insider · Elon Musk says his companies are 'suffering' due to government workBy Lloyd Lee

"Ich kann mich ja für Neues begeistern und sehe auch in dieser Technologiedurchaus Potenzial, aber mir von Elon #Musk beziehungsweise seinem Unternehmen einen Chip einbauen zu lassen, wäre das Letzte, was ich machen würde.Never ever! Ich bin doch nicht wahnsinnig!"

Musk has other irons in the fire and not ethically safe ones if driven by him.
Neuralink wants to drill into our skulls for "mind control" tech that’s still in sci-fi mode, while The Boring Company is solving traffic by… making expensive tunnels for Teslas? Billions wasted on vanity projects when real problems need real solutions.
Musk’s side quests are more hype than help. #TechGrift #Neuralink #BoringCompany #ElonMusk #mastodon #fediverse

ETA:
👉#ElonMusk is very likely the globally most influential ultraright person of all times👈

X, Starlink, and TESLA give him global reach, Starlink power over many militaries and economies, #DOGE unheard of access to personal data of most Americans.

I agree. All of #Elmo's ventures 1) are a threat to humanity:

#TESLA
#X
#SpaceX 2)
#Neuralink
...

And 1.5 million in fines 1) is just "Peanuts" for him.

The Washington Post · Elon Musk is unfathomably rich. Here’s where his money is stashed.Musk lacks significant tranches of cash; his money is largely tied up in ownership stakes of his companies.

#Musk gjør narr av #nobel prisvinnere. Men pengene som er gitt av Nobelkomiteen er ofte brukt i #forskning og videre arbeid.

Det ligger mye forskning innen #fysikk og #kjemi bak teknologien #Tesla, #SpaceX og #Neuralink benytter.

Royal Society kan bli nødt til å kaste ut Musk etter opprop fra forskere.
Musk kutter hardt i forskning og forskere Bk oppropet mener han handler i strid med etiske retningslinjer for foreningen

Financial Times · Chinese investors privately take stakes in Elon Musk’s companiesBy Sun Yu

"Wealthy Chinese investors are quietly funnelling tens of millions of dollars into private companies controlled by Elon Musk using an arrangement that shields their identities from public view, according to asset managers and investors involved in the transactions.

Since Musk was named a key figure in US President Donald Trump’s drive to remake the US government, China-based asset managers have been promoting the pair’s relationship as an enticement to raise capital from rich Chinese. The money is flowing into Musk’s non-public ventures including xAI, Neuralink and SpaceX, the world’s most valuable private company.

The investments are being placed through opaque structures known as special-purpose vehicles, which have the benefit of concealing the investors’ identities, to avoid the ire of US authorities and companies wary of Chinese capital during a nadir in relations between the two countries.

Asset managers behind the deals have told investors that the entities are specifically designed to avoid disclosure."
