If you're an internet marxist and accuse someone (without evidence) of staging or supporting a coup .. you're not actually holding anyone for their actions... you're just acting like a douchebag marxist.
>and the economic benefit to Tesla both immediately after the coup and long term.
And to you as well, after all, lower lithium prices mean lower prices for any battery-operated electronics. Maybe you're behind this coup as well?
>I'll admit it's hardly conclusive
I think you can state it more strongly than that. It's a conspiracy theory in the mold of infowars.
Only Marxists oppose coups? If you don't want people to blame you for a coup, maybe don't make your first public statement about it be a douchebag admission of guilt.
>And to you as well, after all, lower lithium prices mean lower prices for any battery-operated electronics. Maybe you're behind this coup as well?
I would stand to gain a few dollars, Musk would gain billions. As I think the US helped with this coup, I would be behind it as well, but not to the same degree.
>I think you can state it more strongly than that. It's a conspiracy theory in the mold of infowars.
Both the foreign interests ties and the US ties have some evidence, you just can't conclusively show Musk's involvement. Given the events of the past century, suspecting US involvement in a South American coup is hardly crazy.
No. But I looked up the twitter account and a hammer/sickle is a tell-tale sign of Marxists.
>you just can't conclusively show Musk's involvement.
Let's be clear, you can't show ANY involvement by Musk. So all you're left with is FUD.
Except the bit where he admitted it. I don't have any further evidence that he played a role in an incredibly beneficial event for him, that is true.
Let's just agree on this: responding with a troll response to a Marxist troll who accuses you of being complicit with a Bolivian coup, is not 'admitting' anything. It boggles my mind how you can possibly think otherwise.
The clear role lithium played on the coup, the known pressure placed by the US to force that coup, and the economic benefit to Tesla both immediately after the coup and long term. I'll admit it's hardly conclusive, but it's enough that his response was terrible.
