    Anything to distract from the fact that they’re a car company selling fewer and fewer cars.

      Tesla isn’t a car company, it’s a techbro company. They don’t sell cars, they sell the idea that any day now they’ll achieve a technological breakthrough.
      But it’s becoming obvious that won’t happen, so they now pivot to robots. Selling the idea that they’ll achieve a breakthrough in that space soon.
      Those buying the products aren’t the target audience, the investors are. The customers are just useful cattle.

      Ah but now they’re going to be a robot company selling fewer and fewer robots instead.
