>You can't possibly believe Musk's fantasies after a couple decades of hilarious (and occasionally dangerous) lies.

Eh, betting against Musk generally seems to be a losing proposition. Starlink alone would have given me faith in his abilities, what Tesla's done with Models 3 and Y and SpaceX with Falcon 9 gives me all the more reason to believe him. Yes, despite the absurd timelines, which I'm generally okay with. (Not OP)

Like 10 years of promises of Full Self Driving which does not drive itself.

I happen to agree with you but for different reasons.

I will never bet on Musk, but I’m also not dumb enough to bet against him, given TSLA’s stock growth. The board has set a wild target for him before, and he hit it.

It’s too easy to say “he’ll never achieve that!” from the comfort of an armchair internet comment.

Ok, if you really believe that, step up to the line and place your bets. Because if you don’t believe it enough to put money on it, you probably don’t believe it that much.

You literally echoed his reasons, not sure why you said this.

People never learn. The haters always think this time will be different.
