The numbers paint a damning picture of Tesla’s core business. The company only sold 5,385 Cybertrucks in the third quarter of 2025, down a whopping 63 percent compared to the same period last year, and a mere 16,000 overall so far this year.

The car safety agency has 6 reports in which a Tesla vehicle, operating with FSD engaged, "approached an intersection with a red traffic signal, continued to travel into the intersection against the red light and was subsequently involved in a crash with other motor vehicles in the intersection."

On the rare occasions I order an Uber, I always cancel Teslas. I don't trust the cars or the drivers. 🙅‍♀️

“This case arises from catastrophic design defects in the Tesla Cybertruck that turned a survivable crash into a fatal fire.” Why would anyone feel safe getting into one of these death traps?

First spearheaded by Black clergy, the boycott of Target has been one of the most effective and sustained consumer actions in recent memory. And now some powerful new players like the American Federation of Teachers and the Chicago Teachers Union have joined the fight.

The facts are clear: more diverse companies perform better. Here, e.l.f. Beauty CEO Tarang Amin cites a report that proves it, and explains why his brand is standing by "diversity, equity and inclusion."

“Because collisions between trains and cars often cause significant fatalities and injuries, FSD’s failure to safely navigate railroad crossings creates serious risk of a catastrophic crash. We urge NHTSA to immediately launch a formal investigation into this disturbing safety risk ...”

Tesla's experienced not one but three crashes, all apparently on its first day of testing on July 1. By that time, Tesla had logged a mere 7,000 miles in testing.

“The U.K. is a fair, tolerant and decent country, so the last thing that British people want is dangerous and inflammatory language which threatens violence and intimidation on our streets.” The harm that Elon Musk causes reaches far beyond the U.S. borders.

It started with indie rock quartet Deerhoof. Within weeks, groups like Xiu Xiu, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard and Hotline TNT followed suit. The wave of departures continued into September; most recently, The Mynabirds, WU LYF, Kadhja Bonet and Young Widows have all decided to leave Spotify.

“Elon Musk is a master manipulator. ... The reason the board is paying him is he’s willing to say things that other CEOs aren’t willing to say or get away with.” Elon's offer will only pay off if the company grows so much that it becomes worth more than any company in history.

"Instead of looking at just what they have achieved, we could also look at where they started and be clearer about how we are measuring the metaphorical distance they have come and whether we are taking into account the support they had or the obstructions they faced."

"Wells Fargo appeared to remove from its website a section ... which honored its work with the first national organization for lesbians, its support for Japanese-Americans held in US concentration camps, and its Spanish-language support, which dates back to the 1800s."

Cracker Barrel came under attack from Robby Starbuck for supporting diversity, equity and inclusion and LGBTQ+ people. And they caved to the pressure, like so many other corporations. Remember, supervillain Starbuck has a job at Meta rn as their "AI bias advisor."

"Almost overnight, they chose to change their tune, and made it appear as if their values and investment into diversity were negotiable. The result was that consumer trust eroded faster than any quarterly gains could offset." Woops. Ditching "Diversity, Equity and Inclusion" cost Target bigtime.

"The driver’s Tesla struck the victims' parked Chevrolet Tahoe as they were standing beside it on a shoulder. ... The plaintiffs’ lawyers have said the trial was the first involving the wrongful death of a third party resulting from Autopilot."

"If Zuckerberg would have chosen Tucker Carlson for instance, it would have elicited less shock, and would have been a step down in terms of going full-throttle to the right. He went right to the top of the snake by snatching Starbuck." Fantastic analysis by @theadvocatebr.bsky.social

The man Meta has appointed to help address "ideological and political bias" in artificial intelligence is a conservative influencer who believes that pesticide turns children LGBTQ+ and that the COVID-19 vaccine caused Matthew Perry's death. Shame on Meta. We can see which side you're on:

"Musk and his electric vehicle maker were accused of repeatedly overstating the effectiveness of and prospects for their autonomous driving technology, inflating Tesla's financial prospects and stock price." It's lies all the way down.
