I remember there was a claim against a former employee at tesla. And of course companies have a lot of money and power that could be leveraged against an employee, but there are always two sides. It would be big news if tesla did something like that, can you point to a story about that?

“ An anonymous caller had contacted the company to say Tripp was planning a mass shooting at the Gigafactory. When the police confronted Tripp that evening, he was unarmed and in tears. He said he was terrified of Musk and suggested the billionaire might have called in the tip himself.”

Just what? That's so messed up. I didn't realize situations like this actually happen. I'm shocked.

This has been discussed here in the past, but since it's Musk's (Who can do no wrong) word against some nobody's, it has never gotten much prominence.

It's very sad - if anything, his fans, should for at least pragmatic reasons keep him accountable, or he will self destruct before he can achieve the Mars Colony.
