I don’t think it’s move fast and break shit, so much as it is not thinking things through. He’s a narcissist and he believes what he thinks no matter how unfiltered stupid it is and doesn’t respond well to criticism. Look how he fired all of the supercharger people. Obviously the managers there told him something he didn’t like and he responded like a pissy bitch. Then he had to rehire most of those people to undo the damage he himself had caused.

I was watching an interesting video by an ex-Tesla employee who basically confirmed what we all know - Musk is operationally incompetent and loves to showboat, firing people regardless of their value to the system, piling stress and additional work onto others. And does it even when there are process improvements that would yielded the same savings (or increase profits) and preserve jobs. That’s literally his own mode of operation - work people harder with the threat of firings.

And now he does the same BS with the federal government. People will die because of this.
