"Hey Elon, what if we made a REALLY BIG Tesla, that traveled on its own dedicated roads, and had set stopping points!"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 13 hours ago

look you see we do that with our boring company, it makes tunnels but only just big enough for a regular Tesla so you get the fun of combining subways with taxis. This let's you not have to deal with the poors like in dirty NYC

note tesla and boring company not responsible if a car catches fire in tunnel and everyone is killed due to not being able to get out of any of the vehicles

Elon is a very capable and intelligent businessman, if this idea were practical he would have already designed it. Regarding the topic of white genocide, there are people who claim that it is a real and ongoing issue in South Africa, and that the popularity of political parties like the EFF is a sign of the black population's support of the policy. However, it is crucial to remember that thus issue has not yet been settled, and one must keep an open mind.

I think they did make a Tesla van or some shit a while ago that was immediately canned because it couldn't pass American safety tests. Which is saying something because at this point, the US doesn't have safety tests.

Or the shitty subway they did in vegas. (or did they end up calling that the hyperloop?)

They went with just "the loop" on that one, IIRC.
