    And when ICE cars catch fire they sometimes explode and although rare in recent decades they have been known also to explode on impact. New data released by Tesla shows Teslas are much less likely to catch fire than an ICE car but it also seems based on past articles that BMWs and Fords have been much more likely to catch fire. Given this is all the recent FUD coincidence? Of course not!

    There was a point not long ago where BMW and Ford were facing global injunctions for cars that spontaneously combusted after being turned off and parked for a while. I suspect a lot of the FUD coming right now around Tesla comes from BMW in particular but also Ford. Remember recently the Ford CEO making the idiotic claim that Ford's Mobile Eye powered geo fenced Blue-Cruise that can only be used on highways as a kind of adaptive cruise control (not even in the same universe of functionality- utterly toy like in comparison) was not beta tested on the public? What came after that? Another pile of FUD by the Blackrock and Gates controlled NBCs with all the claims of the Florida crashes with the same-ridiculous features- one of those Florida crashes led to Tesla thank God ditching Mobile Eye which then led to Mobile Eye ditching Mobile Eye pawning it off on Intel. These same clowns are presumably desperately hoping for a repeat. Too late! Can't see how Ford even makes it through 2022 and BMW has already had 5 years of misrepresenting its sales per the SEC. They are getting enflamed because they know they have failed on self-driving and they know what that will do to their share values and they know Tesla is about to launch product and realize a huge amount of pent up revenue from it. And they are terrified even of the info to be dropped at the Tesla Q1 earnings report so they keep trying to fake it tell they make it but that is all they have ever done- even VW only plans on making 1/30th the number of batteries- which would be like saying it plans on selling 1/30th as many cars or maybe at most 1/15th as many. The insurance industry with precedent by the auto insurance industry also with Tesla insurance and FSD rising won't be able to take kick backs from the fossil fuel industry for buying up and socializing its endless stock losses and propping it up by making constant unjustifiable fossil fuel stock purchases and unjustifiably and unethically jacking up people's rates to cover this... on and on. They are getting mad about Tesla getting to 10 billion miles on the new hardware (22.5 billion or more on all hardware) for the predicted release point of product and they have people like Aurora's Urmson trying to say his ancient stuff from 2010 was better- sounds like what he apparently is, a defeated vanquished foe (one presumably bitter about being beat in court by Tesla)- same kind of comments from the hidden human driver supervisor approach from that even with a human supervisor in the virtual background couldn't beat Tesla's machine only approach even in its fully lidar mapped back ground of Phoenix- possibly explaining why Waymo's CEO who recently quit Waymo but not without similar bitter vanquished comments. Urmson is even trying to scuttle his vanquisher's victory by saying its goals are unattainable- clearly unattainable by him. They can't stand Tesla pointing out that their AP is already about 10x safer than human drivers which has been the projected regulator release point.

    Which brings me back to BMWs and Fords on catching fire with a frequency that had them facing injunctions in places like South Korea. Its a bit like the WWII press manual stuff where they would try to paint their opponent's comparative strength as weakness. Its time to learn if the average BMW and Ford is 100x more likely to catch fire than a Tesla and 10x and learn if BMWs and Fords were 10x more likely to catch fire than even average ICE and understand that may have long been the case but also understand that bought and paid for media (the lie industry) never covered the Ford and BMW issues of facing injunctions around the globe even as it had to cover the Takeda air bag issues. Curious as to why? There is also a history of cruise control issues that affected Toyota/Lexus and Ford. When the lie industry (the paid lie industry media) does this FUD the response more and more seems to be conditioning to buy the dip. And we have to remember that the Tesla model of value and service and improving life for humanity puts the very lie industry at risk because it doesn't cave to their model of extortion and bribery pitting firms against each other for ratcheting up misinformation and wedging in unnecessary ad firms that alienate firms from their customers. The whole corrupt vision of the world is at risk when people start to demonstrate real value because it is contagious and always the same old cry wolf from the lie industry.

    There is another important subtext here that is critical to understand. Data is showing about 10x less accidents with AP engaged in Teslas. Tesla already all of them were he safest cars ever testes pretty much across the board if you actually got in a accident by a huge amount actually but when the are also 10x less likely to be in accident in the first place and 10 to who knows maybe even 100x less likely to catch fire than a Ford or BMW and never going to explode well you start to see that a Tesla may just be straight up 10x safer than a BMW ICE care (but surely safer than any BMW EV by a huge margin as well.) So it begs the question be so out of date, like being comparatively worse than a 1950 car with skinny tires and no shoulder strap or air bags or stability control or ABS- why are BMW ICE vehicles still even legal for sale?
