Thread: The Next @Tesla Factory Will Be In Japan

1. Tesla has a long-time partnership with Panasonic パナソニック株式会社 (formerly Matsushita - 松下電器産業株式会社).

Panasonic is based in Osaka, Japan.

Tesla's relationship with Panasonic is growing.
2. Tesla added Hiromichi Mizuno (水野 弘道) to its board this year.

Mizuno was Chief Investment Officer of the Japan Government Pension Investment Fund.

Mizuno went to Osaka City University(大阪市立大学 aka 市大).
3. @elonmusk made a deal with Yusaku Maezawa -@yousuck2020 - to do a commercial passenger flyby of the Moon on @SpaceX #Starship.

Maezawa is a Japanese billionaire.
4. While Japan can be a very difficult place for foreign companies to do business, there are notable exceptions. @CocaCola and @McDonalds are sector leaders in Japan.

Japan's economy has been stagnant for decades. The country is full of bright, hard working engineers.
5. Japan is the world's fourth largest auto market. It is a key market for Tesla to continue its growth and accelerate the world's transition to sustainable energy.

Japan has also embraced solar energy, long eager to get off of foreign oil and now fearful of nuclear.
6. There is a tremendous opportunity for Tesla to work with Panasonic to develop grid storage for Japan.

Panasonic could build a Terafactory in or near Osaka for iron phosphate batteries.

This would support a Tesla factory producing Powerwall, Powerpack and Megapack.
7. Japan is also a perfect market for the upcoming Tesla compact vehicle, perhaps a Japan-design version of a global platform that will underpin the China, Berlin and other designs.
8. The influence of Mizuno and Panasonic, along with the popularity of @yousuck2020 and @elonmusk himself, and Japan's need for jobs, renewable energy and innovation in general should be enough to clear the bureaucratic hurdles.

This deserves a more thorough response than my first one. 🧵

1. I don’t know how much experience Skippy has with FSD or which version.

2. I have a lot of experience with various versions including FSD Beta. I have driven roughly 40,000 miles in self driving
3. Tesla Self driving software is amazing. It is better than human over 90% of the time. At least twice it saw pedestrians I didn’t see and arguably saved them from serious injury or death

4. It is “Beta” software. Skippy is a software pro so he should understand this
5. It requires supervision. It does make mistakes.

6. The Roomba comparison is absurd. My car has driven me in a wide variety of environments including downtown Miami, Brooklyn, and Austin as well as dirt roads and in bad weather

Will Trevor Milton get a deal by offering evidence against bigger fish? Here's a possible hint in the indictment.

Not just the SPAC insiders, but also the PIPE investors Image
Another clue - "... were able to sell their Nikola stock for a profit ..." Image

How would you know if you're living in a #dystopia?

One of the first signs:

Are truth tellers persecuted and punished? @Snowden and #JulianAssange are.

What happens to the liars they exposed? In America they are celebrated, revered and rewarded? /1 ImageImage
We can see the same things with #COVID19.

@AlexBerenson backs up everything he says with facts and science. He repeatedly catches establishment figures in their lies.

Berenson is marginalized, labeled a conspiracy theorist, etc. Meanwhile killer @NYGovCuomo is lauded. /2
Four US presidents lied to get us into the #Vietnam War and to keep us there.

Their cabinets and generals lied to us. It was #bipartisan. They killed millions.

They were never held accountable for their Vietnam lies.

The lies never stopped. /3 Image

Watching @CNN town hall with @JoeBiden (dvr).

Woman asking about Covid deaths wearing ineffective mask and it doesn’t cover her nose.

Social studies teacher believes we need the president to tell us how to live our lives. /2
Good question from @andersoncooper about trump gathering vs BLM protests and Covid safety.

Biden answers with total nonsense.

Yes I am an @elonmusk fanboi - This brief thread explains why.

1. In 2012 @Tesla produced and delivered an electric vehicle, the Model S, with 265 miles of range and amazing performance.

It's 2020. No one else has matched that yet.

8+ years ahead. /1
2. In 2015 @SpaceX landed an orbital rocket booster, Orbcomm-OG2-2.

It's 2020. No one else has even tried. No one is anywhere close to trying.

SpaceX has done it 60+ times.

6+ years ahead. /2
3. In 2016 Elon announced @boringcompany. This radical idea is making progress at solving our traffic problems and doing more for us.

They are about to complete their first project - Las Vegas. More to come. /3
