The constant, non-stop lies about Tesla by Jim Chanos and Einhorn in business news

"Last quarter's profits weren't so bad, I still have faith in Tesla!"

"Next quarter profits will be high, shorts will be squeeezed!"

"FSD will be released soon!"

Regarding the "shorts are just like longs, just on the opposite side of the trade" argument: I disagree, because they behavioral patterns of shorts/bears is so much different from the behavioral patterns of longs/bulls.Let's list the various completely fabricated or at minimum bad faith lies the $TSLAQ activist shorts have come up with in the recent past:Make no mistake about it:, with an intent to hurt Tesla, to hurt Tesla's partners, to hurt Tesla's suppliers, to hurt Tesla's employees, to hurt Tesla's customers and to hurt the rest of the world as well. They are preying on Tesla customers on Twitter strategically and are trying to poison Tesla related discussions and articles. If you search for $TSLA on Twitter you will prominently get misleading short propaganda served. They collude to herd on the stock price, they collude to magnify certain types of news, and they collude to hurt Tesla's demand. Whenever there's a bigger drop in the stock price, they swarm various investor and social media forums and try to rattle investors with FUD.On the other hand here's the full list of recent 'Tesla long' conspiracies, delusions and pump and dump schemes:That's it! (And to be fair half of the longs disagree about FSD and about the short squeeze to begin with.)The vast majority of Tesla longs are totally harmless, totally transparent, generally argue in good faith and their arguments are easy todouble check for over-optimism. I have to say Tesla longs are the most incompetent stock pump and dumpers in the world, because they are holding the stock, not dumping it.Not a bit of bad faith against anyone who argues honestly that I've seen - just hope, wishful thinking and a bit of a bull echo chamber.It's fundamentally asymmetrical warfare that Tesla shorts are waging, based on the fact that it's much easier to create fake uncertainty about a company and its products than to create fake certainty.Let's keep all this context in mind before we compare shorts to longs with an unfair "bothsiderism": shorts are spreading lies tactically and strategically, and have been doing it for years.If you are not outraged about this then you are not paying attention.
