How did, you know, Tesla come?

Oh, they had this idea.

And the idea was to do this.

But that's not really what happened.

A lot of motherfuckers had that idea.

You know, there's a lot of those ideas out there.

And, like, if you look at Tesla, there was a very famous documentary called Who Killed the Electric Car that came out before Tesla.

And if you were an entrepreneur watching that, what you would see is

Big oil, big auto, big government.

We're never going to let that happen.

They would kill you.

But then the reality is, oh, Elon Musk, that motherfucker's hard to kill, right?

So he, by himself, kind of decarbonized American auto industry, which is really unbelievable in retrospect.

But then it gets told, right, like if you listen to the politicians now, they're like, oh, he didn't build Tulsa.

He just like struck a gold mine and is just pulling the gold out.

Like all those people built it.

But why didn't all those people build another Tesla?

Like there's only one.

Because there's only one non-fungible Tesla.

very rare person in that equation who could do that.
