What a huge display of incompetence. And I can't say how im even remotely shocked with how Musk managed to get a deal like that and push out any other smaller company from even being a participant. Such a mess.
Tesla’s troubles with solar in Buffalo were overshadowed by a federal corruption probe into the construction of the factory. Kaloyeros and others, including one of Cuomo’s closest aides, were convicted of rigging the bid process to award the construction contract to a politically connected local contractor. The convictions were subsequently vacated by the U.S. Supreme Court.
But let’s focus on Elon musk and Tesla, it’s good to see the big oil propaganda has also left Reddit to do useful idiot work for the destruction of the planet.
How many more hottest days of the year are we okay with and people dying before we admit that big steps like this one are necessary to save people.
And then the government fucks it up with contractor bullshit like they always do, and suddenly it’s Musks and solars fault.
Oh dear. The Muskrat fanbois are showing up on Lemmy. We can do better than defend idiot billionaires who fleece the country. I don't know that big steps like those mentioned in the article are any type of what we need. Of course, of course, our economic and political bullshit ties with fossil fuel is gross and needs to stop, but that type of whataboutism doesn't make one right and the other wrong. They are both wrong.
