In december 2023, Reuters found Tesla systematically lied to customers about the range of their cars

In 2023, the New York Times exposed how Tesla lied about the safety of his self-driving mode. Engineers told Musk the system wasn't safe. He told them to shut up. As a result of his lies, several people were killed:

Guess how Elon Musk reacted ? Did he resign? Nope. He went on the offensive.
He tells people to avoid "legacy media" (news organizations doing real journalism) and trust shady podcasters. He also ensured links to Reuters and the New York Times articles can't go viral on X

Elon Musk's greatest skill is his ability to lie without absolutely any shame.
Tesla was created by Marc Tarpenning and Martin Eberhard. Elon Musk joined the company, took over. Then he sued them both. He bought the title "cofounder" with a secret legal settlement. Now, he calls himself the cofounder.

He's also "Chief Engineer" at Space X. That's another title he bought too, as he owns the company. He's actually not a real engineer. He has a degree in finance.
Just like he is the co-founder of PayPal by most publications. When in reality his company merged with the company that created PayPal. He only worked for the company for a few months after they merged before being fired.
He has a habit of smearing innocent people. He once called an innocent man a pedophile and hired investigators to dig dirt on him.

He did the same thing when taking over Twitter. He called twitter executives “scum”, “dishonest” and “thieves”.
He described USAID as a criminal organization. Yet, not a single USAID worker will be prosecuted. Because there is absolutely no evidence that USAID workers misappropriated any money. This is just how Elon Musk operates. Lying. Smearing innocent people. Because, unfortunately, some gullible fools believe him.
This dude just lies shamelessly. Even his video game performance is based on cheating.
