Many here are coming along quite well into the future I see. Thinking about it more, accepting reality, planning a new life with RoboTaxi maybe even Optimus for some already. This is the most bullish signal I can get off this thread simply because it means that many many others are coming along into the future as well. This includes Big and Little Auto, Insurance, Energy, Oil, Media.... They are all on proper notice now. We have engaged.
Here's a theory. They're so convinced FSD is real, that headlines are already making claims Tesla is just a 3 letter trick called FSD. It's so classic. Put it on stage then start discrediting FSD with Robot Fear that beats all FUD hands down. Find differences with Waymo and exploit fears on some made up theory. Like "Waymo would never put your life at risk with ULTs" (risky left turns). Dan O'Doody types come out in full force now. Talk about it constantly, and freak people out in public. When it goofs (and it will), or we get some stupid recall, they make it sound like Tesla's just some puny car company that nobody can afford, intentionally ignoring Energy growth and margins in the background and down she goes again.
I'm sure this was always the FUD plan, but I think Tesla beat them to it with full release is my theory. At the same time, Tesla finds it more important to get some exposure globally in EU and China (India as well more than likely) with private demo rides, and even before going unsupervised in NA. This buys time to perfect it here at home in parallel, and more important to the mission is to educate the world to all swim in the same direction if they can.
This global exposure leads to a specific living room discussion on whether or not to buy another car, namely a Hybrid. It literally pushes the world into a future state from unbelievable to - been there done that! It's been very well played so far, but it's still gonna be a wild ride and I'm totally jazzed about all of it!
