Even if Tesla drops Musk as CEO to appease public opinion, he’ll remain on the board of directors, because he owns so much of the stock.

I urge you to (while ignoring the Pink Floyd theme) read welcometothemachine.co to understand how we can’t strip billionaires of power by attacking the companies they are associated with. Because, they all own each other’s companies, they all sit on each other’s boards, they’re all in bed together. Musk doesn’t only own big parts of Twitter, Tesla, and SpaceX, but many other big corporations as well. They all do.

Ok, nevermind. I guess we’ll just do nothing. 🙄

  the point was to say we need complete and total systematic change. while small things are fine in the short term, long term solutions need to be implemented.
  
  pretending they are saying we should just sit back and remain a cog is disingenuous.

So he’s still making money off it then. We can still stigmatize the brand and cut where it hurts all of the parties associated - their profits. Shame upon anyone still buying Tesla.
