Let him take his ball and go home. It’ll be be better for Tesla in the (short and ) long term. Additionally, it’ll allow the world to identify which investors really do want to support a racist anti-trans antisemite. 

“Pound me in the ass” prison!

What are the odds that Tesla shareholders are hoping that the next story to run about Elon’s drug use, is that he has died of an overdose?

I am uncomfortable growing Tesla to be a leader in AI & robotics without having ~25% voting control

Don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

no. please. stop. don’t go.

This guy asked for $80 BILLION, and people aren’t saying he is insane. The highest paid CEO last year made $253 MILLION. When he said it, I almost fell out of my chair at how ridiculous that was.

He should just go to jail. Super Max, no yard time. Fuck that guy.

Hours before threatening his own company, Musk tweeted a video of Tesla’s new humanoid robot Optimus awkwardly folding a shirt, something it apparently can’t even do without human assistance.

Straight up.

If Musk wants more shares then he can fucking buy more shares. This isn’t complicated. I doubt anyone would be dumb enough to sell him more shares, though. Giving Musk more control of Tesla is just stupid.

His drug use is more apparent every day.

I dunno about ya’ll, but extorting one’s shareholders just seems like fantastic leadership to me.  🙄

He should go to jail for manipulating his stock prices.

So he’s just saying “gimme”, right?

He’s asking for charity after sacrificing his own stake in Tesla on his failure at twitter. He’s asking for a bailout -- ha!

I get wanting to be fairly compensated, but asking for a comp plan that takes him from 13% to 25% is bonkers. That 12% incremental equity would be worth about 80 billion at today’s prices, and in theory he would only earn those awards if he’s continuing to successfully grow the share price.

Agreed. He’s probably getting really low on capital, so he’s freaking out. I would think this would be worth it to the board to remove him from any control...

It’s a bluff to get his stockpile of stock back or to use Tesla’s resources instead of his own. Otherwise, he’d just make another company.
