What’s great about this, and Stephen Fry is brilliant, is not that he’s absolving Musk, or that he’s criticizing Tesla, but that it is an argument likely leading to Elon Musk protesting,

‘No, my cars are good enough that I can be a Nazi!’

    I seem to have struck a nerve. I wonder why this bothers you so much?

    Well first of all, xkcd.com/386. And also: because I don’t like fascism or promoting the spread of fascism.

    Obviously that’s not the image they present to population of the regions they take. But you knew what I was claiming they are incompetent at.

    There’s a saying that reading history may help prevent repeating the mistakes of history. You should try some of that.

    To reiterate: the reason to be anti-fascist has absolutely nothing to do with how good they are at doing things and I don’t see any good reasons to hide this fact.
