Tesla’s year is going about as smoothly as you’d expect for a company that seems dead set on making its Nazi salute-throwing leader the richest man in human history, even though his company is tanking according to every conceivable metric. Profits are down, the model lineup is aging poorly, and CEO Elon Musk is basically saying he wants to command a robot army, which is especially terrifying considering that he made his AI, Grok, a Hitler-loving neo-Nazi 4chan dweeb.

It seems like no matter what the company does, it all ends up as bad press and even worse business. Case in point: Tesla’s Robo taxis are already driving around Austin and San Francisco, but their self-driving abilities are suspect at best, so they need in-car human monitors to make sure nothing goes awry.
