Does Tesla count or are we still calling Elon a scammer and fraud because he's not producing electric cars fast enough?

"not producing electric cars fast enough" Oh, you mean literally lying about how many cars he is producing, fabricating timelines when he knows they are 100% impossible, libel-ing people, lying about self driving and giving a dangerous name (autopilot) to his driver assist, going on insane witchunts, and taking all the credit for other peoples work (e.g. martin eberhard)? All while producing crap tons of scrap and rework in his factory that literally invalidates the thesis that the cars are somehow environmentally friendly? Cars that are great at accelerating and suck at stopping, and thus have a much higher fatality rate than other luxury vehicles (on par with sports cars)? Yep pretty sure we're still calling elon a scammer and a fraud.

I think the two things we should be doing are 1. Working on getting off the planet and 2. Working to save the planet. Elon is working on both. I'm a believer.
