Which is he exact opposite of how Elon lives his life.
Nobody is denying that every single person under Tinucci was fired. The email says that, people's updates on LinkedIn say that, people on Reddit that were fired say that. Elon is not disputing the leaked email, in fact is pissed it was leaked and is trying to say supercharging will somehow magically continue but is not saying a core team was kept. Tinucci's job description was:
You did read the
NYT article, right? The one where it says:
What are you even defending? You're basically trying to say that the story from the outside does look awful, but because we don't know everything, we should assume the best. And that not knowing is on us, the customers, when it could be resolved by a single tweet by Elon: "Misreported. We did not fire the whole team. Focusing on more efficient supercharger roll out team. Will still be the leader in DC fast charging." But no, we don't get that, but somehow that's on us for overacting while we're OK with Elon tweeting about how immigrants are bad (not him of course) and how you can subscribe to X to support free speech in the last 24 hours instead of spending his time managing messaging around Tesla's widely reported firing of a critical team.
That just makes Elon look like an awful CEO, and is not the burn on irrational owners that you think it is.
Is this the stuff you think the CEO of Tesla should be posting instead of messaging what is going on with the charging team?
