Bizarre discovery: Tesla has a fleet of haters who must search for tweets mentioning the company in order to reply to them. I've seen plenty of haters before, but never such proactive ones. Who are they? Car dealers? People who shorted the stock? Bots?

There’s been a lot of coverage. Best deep dive is probably thishttps://www.latimes.com/business/autos/la-fi-hy-tesla-short-sellers-musk-20190408-story.html …
Whoah, I had no idea. Conspiracy theorists and short sellers have converged. How very strange. Are there any other companies that have this sort of antiposse?

My guess is folks are much more sympathetic to SpaceX and its mission. The Tesla love and hate is unique IMO

I’m open to other answers but my best attempt: Facebook in public market and WeWork in private might be closest in terms of doubters. But nothing on same league as this unique blend of twitter battles and online celebrity of Tesla and its CEO.

Not a company but bitcoin twitter seems to be the only one more toxic than tesla twitter

& more generally, cryptocurrencies/tokens attract similar posses/antiposses – including some playing both sides to create useful volatility – given the thin-but-accessible trading, & potential for self-fulfilling expectations

Publicly traded cannabis companies face similar type of antiposse, just at a smaller scale.

Nope and the oldest ones have been hating on Elon since 2013, which suggests that they were caught short in the 5X rip and can’t forgive him

I also think the anti-musk/Tesla crowd is moderately justified with the reports of musk doxing people who are short or critical of the company.

Paul, this is a very serious issue for
