    What’s your evidence that he doesn’t know it? All these claims that he knows nothing, but I never see any proof or evidence.

    Like, yeah, he has a team, because nothing gets done with just one person. That is not evidence for him not knowing how things work.

      The trim coming off of the Cybertruck while driving down the highway or the steering wheel coming off of his cars would hint that he doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

      Musk is the one making the claims. It’s his job to prove his own statements.

      I would say the fact that he isn’t a P.E. is enough for me.

      If he was some mastermind engineer like he claims, he could easily pass the FE without even needing to study.

      Everyone else in the world needs to prove their credentials, why doesn’t he?

      My proof is that actually that my pet cat knows more about manufacturing than he does, therefore he doesn’t know the most. In fact, my cat knows literally everything possible to know about manufacturing. It’s amazing. And if you don’t believe me, then you need to show your evidence that it isn’t true. Also, my cat doesn’t routinely give misinformation about the capabilities of the products made by their companies.

        How do you know the amount he knows? Your cats knowledge, unfortunately, does not shine light on the matter.

        My evidence are the videos and articles where people who work with him say he is heavily involved. But you made he claim he doesn’t know it. I never see evidence he doesn’t.

      He doesn’t work in manufacturing. He owns companies that work in manufacturing.

      I’m not a medical expert just because I pay my medical bills.

        He does both. He owns it. He also goes down onto the manufacturing floors and gets his hands dirty sometimes

        It’s like saying the doctor who owns his own clinic has no idea what the nurses do.

          No, it’s like saying that a businessman who owns a hospital has no ideas what the doctors are doing, despite the fact that once a month he shows up in scrubs to push a patient’s wheelchair for a photo op.

            Mmm, more like if the business man also spent all his time learning about medicine, got a degree in both medicine and business and spent time brainstorming and diagnosing patients

      I think most people can believe that he knows something about manufacturing, but almost everyone doubts that he “knows more than anyone currently alive on this planet”. Those are quite different things.
