Dude. You gotta let it go. These are pretty unsurprising allegations for a company like Tesla. And short sellers are not the boogieman, they're just an indication that the value of Tesla is highly uncertain.

IDK man, TheDrive pushes non-stop anti-Tesla stories, it's not unreasonable to suspect their motives. Just look at their story history; not exactly unbiased.

I haven't seen any bias. Do you have specific examples of them reporting false or distorted news about Tesla?

Bias !== false or distorted news.

Selective reporting or withholding of information is a form of bias.

Short Sellers are a massive plague on the market, short selling should be banned in general

Free markets work better than controlled markets as history has shown.

the Stock market is VERY far from a free market

We aren’t talking about how it is, we’re talking about how it should be. Banning short selling would remove the ability to hedge a large long position and would remove a necessary check on overvalued companies by providing an incentive to predict their collapse. Short selling serves an important role in the markets and banning it would be overkill and counter productive.

That's not a very libertarian position to take.

Believing the Stock market is a Free market or Supported by Libertarianism shows how little you understand about either the stock marker or libertarianism
