Tesla has removed Disney+ from some of its vehicles amid Elon Musk having an online fight with Disney CEO Bob Iger. The fight started when Disney halted its advertising on X after Musk agreed with and amplified antisemitic content, for which he eventually apologized.
Every week, there’s a new drama with Elon Musk on X, formerly known as Twitter. It sometimes indirectly affects Tesla, but this time, it affects it directly.
The current drama stems from Musk giving support to an antisemitic post on X, which he didn’t initially apologize for, though admitted that it was a mistake a week later. He further apologized but was already attacking Disney. In the meantime, the result was a massive backlash, where many companies stopped advertising on X, including Apple and Disney.
Musk took a particular issue with frequent right-wing target Disney – in the interview when he apologized for the tweet, he attacked advertisers for pulling out almost in the same breath.
arg! I’m a non-douche guy who is #70,000 on the Cybertruck list. I honestly don’t know if I want to continue supporting this douchebag, but Tesla is currently a superior product at the moment when it comes to charging and range. I’m just torn.
Superior product? The truck that can’t go up gentle hills?
Please keep me honest here, but isn’t the Cybertruck the fastest production truck in existence?
Honestly I don’t know, but “fastest” isn’t usually the primary goal of trucks. Going up gentle hills is, however, generally desired.
