Did you know all the major car brands (Ford, Chevy, GM) have electric cars? It's not just Tesla in the ring.

Did you know that Tesla gave them the technology to further their electric car development, for free?

ETA: Not sure why this is getting downvotes, here's a link, but there are many other articles out there about it. https://www.dailybreeze.com/business/20140612/tesla-founder-elon-musk-giving-its-electric-technology-away-for-free/

Not really relevant. Also any source on that? Cos plenty of companies have independently developed electric cars.

u/DISHDOGDELUX 4d ago

Oh, is that the case? Fascinating! Do you have an article to show off about that free exchange of ideas?

u/SavageCaveman13 4d ago

It wasn't a free exchange of ideas. It was simply Musk giving away the technology for free to further advance innovation. Here's an article, but there are many other out there, this happened close to ten years ago. https://www.dailybreeze.com/business/20140612/tesla-founder-elon-musk-giving-its-electric-technology-away-for-free/

""Tesla founder Elon"" Even the hyperlink is bullshit

u/SavageCaveman13 4d ago

As I said, there are many other articles about it. This happened about ten years ago which is why other American car manufacturers have advanced their technology so much in recent years. Don't shoot the messenger.

And he isn't the founder of Tesla.
The hyperlink text is BS.
Don't get upset with uncomfortable facts

I agree. He is not the founder and it is a poorly written article. The fact that he shared his technology for free is accurate though, you're welcome to look it up yourself if you'd like.

Don't get upset with uncomfortable facts

I'm not upset at all. Why would I be?

“There are blatant and obvious falsehoods in this article, but I swear the one part that agrees with me is true and real!”

u/SavageCaveman13 3d ago

Not remotely what I said. And you're still welcome to look it up for yourself.

u/jd46149 3d ago

You agree that the link you provided called Musk the founder of Tesla, and admit that that is false. You further go on to say it is a poorly written article in general. The veracity of him sharing tech isn’t my gripe, your standard of proof is. Just slinging “look it up yourself” is honestly better than providing a poorly written article that contains falsehoods. Once you admit that your source has lied about one thing, the rest of their writing is immediately called into question.
