What's great about this, and Stephen Fry is brilliant, is not that he's absolving Musk, or that he's criticizing Tesla, but that it is an argument likely leading to Elon Musk protesting,

'No, my cars are good enough that I can be a Nazi!'

claim that fascist are dumb, stupid and can achieve nothing

I seem to have struck a nerve. I wonder why this bothers you so much?

Fascists are great at: bullshitting, terrorizing and thieving. Fascism is catabolic. It is organized crime with the aesthetic of a political movement.

Obviously that's not the image they present to population of the regions they take. But you knew what I was claiming they are incompetent at.
