China just staged the most brutal self-driving car test in history.

- 36 vehicles
- 15 deadly scenarios
- Real highways shut down by the government.

The result? Absolutely shocking.

Here's which car brands ACTUALLY lead the race to autonomy: 🧵 Image
This wasn't your typical controlled demo.

China shut down active highways to create real hazard scenarios.

BYD, XPeng, NIO, Huawei's Aito, Xiaomi, and Tesla all participated.

Each car carried its latest software updates.

Except for one brand...
Tesla's cars were running older 2023 Autopilot, not bleeding-edge FSD Beta.

This wasn't an accident.

Tesla had only launched limited FSD features in China months earlier.

Critics screamed unfair, testing old Tesla tech against competitors' latest systems...

In 2005, MySpace had it all.

Worth $12B. Crushed every competitor. 100 million users.

Today? Dead platform. Stock crashed 99%. Users fled to Facebook.

All because of ONE fatal decision.

Here's the story of MySpace's biggest business mistake: Image
MySpace began in 2003 when Tom Anderson and Chris DeWolfe built it in just 10 days.

Within one month, they had 1 million users.

By 2005, MySpace was the most visited website in America.

Even bigger than Google.

But success made them reckless:
MySpace became the king of social media.

300 million registered users.

$12 billion valuation.

They controlled 25% of all internet traffic.

Then came the moment that changed everything:

These 3 men emailed eBay 200 times begging for jobs.

eBay ignored every single one.

So they stole eBay's entire business model and sold it back to them for $43 million.

Then they did it again. And again. And again.

Here's how they became the most hated billionaires: Image
Marc, Oliver, and Alexander Samwer noticed eBay's explosive growth in America.

They saw the same opportunity in Germany.

So they reached out to eBay repeatedly with partnership proposals.

200 emails later, still no response.

That's when they decided to do it themselves:
In February 1999, they launched Alando.

An almost identical copy of eBay, but tailored for German users.

Aggressive marketing. Flawless execution.

Within months, Alando became Germany's biggest online auction site.

But that's not the crazy part...

In 1945, America secretly smuggled 1,600 Nazi scientists into the country.

Their job? Beat the Soviets to space.

The same people who built Hitler's terror rockets were now responsible for America's space race win...

Here's the dark secret behind the moon landing:🧵 Image
Operation Paperclip was America's biggest secret after World War II.

While the world celebrated victory over fascism, the US government was quietly hiring Nazi scientists.

The mission? Steal Germany's rocket technology before the Soviets could get it.

The crazy part?
These weren't just random engineers.

Over 1,600 specialists were brought to America.

Many had direct ties to the SS.

Some were actual Nazi Party members.

The leader of Nazi Germany's rocket program was among them.

Here's where it gets wild:

This man owned one-sixth of Japan and was the world richest person.

Then ONE decision cost him 95% of his fortune and landed him in prison.

His mistake? Not something you'd expect...

Here's the shocking collapse of history's most powerful man:🧵 Image
Meet Yoshiaki Tsutsumi, who inherited the Seibu Corporation in 1964 at age 30.

His empire included:

- Hotels
- Railways
- Golf courses
- Massive real estate holdings

During Japan's economic bubble, his net worth exploded.

But there's more:
By 1987, Forbes named him the world's richest person with $20 billion.

This was more than Gates and Buffett combined.

His portfolio covered one-sixth of Japan's land.

To put this in perspective: Tokyo's Imperial Palace alone was worth more than all of California.

Companies change their logos every 7 years.

Not to make them look better.

But to exploit ONE psychological loophole that makes you addicted to their product without you realizing it.

Here's the billion-dollar manipulation hiding in plain sight: Image
Last year, Pepsi ditched their 14-year-old logo for something that looks old.

Not for nostalgia purposes.

It's a calculated psychological attack on Gen Z's emotions.

But that's not the crazy part...
Their target? People born after the 90s ended.

Their weapon? False memories of a "better" time they never lived.

Gen Z is obsessed with 90s aesthetics despite never experiencing them.

VHS tapes. Vintage Nintendo. Neon everything.
