Well when Tesla gets sued and settles, they will never have to admit liability, so we will never know.

And it’s not about musk breaking the law...it’s about him telling his employees to break the law and firing those that didn’t...did musks lawyers advise them as well?

law is not absolute, nothing wrong with challenging the law if you think its unjust.

That’s a straw man...the CEO fired people who didn’t break the law at his direction. He didn’t give a damn if the employees felt the law was just or not. Forcing employees to break the law or fire them is absolutely wrong.

Company should be able to fire people at any reason any time, nothing wrong with that.
