🇺🇸"We're Blessed that you have got Elon Musk. A brave man, with that wealth. He's helped me a lot... I'd be in jail right now if it wasn't for Elon."
🇺🇸Tommy was put in jail for making a documentary exposing corruption, it was pinned by @elonmusk and got 167M views!
🇺🇸Tommy says making the film was a risk that was well worth it.

Foreign regime change through military intervention is not a strategy that has served Britain, at all.
Many British men and women have needlessly died trying to achieve that.
Restore Britain’s position on foreign affairs is absolutely clear - we will act when, and only when, Britain’s interests are being protected. And this can only be done after years of rebuilding and rearming.
Our depleted Armed Forces are in no position to fight, nor intervene - the capacity simply is not there. We don’t have enough soldiers, bullets, tanks, jets or missiles. Nor even a functioning economy...
The Americans are in a very different position to us, they are operating on an entirely different level. Their decisions are their decisions. We must accept the honest truth that our military has been brutally hollowed out, our economy is failing and our country is crumbling away. That must come first, every time.
This all applies to Ukraine, Iran or wherever else. We should support where possible, and apply pressure where effective - when that makes strategic sense for British interests.
But we are simply not in a position to act militarily, and when Britain itself is in such a dire state, nor should we.

READ 👇 Let's expose this fool so everyone knows and understands his biases, business interests, and how his messaging is pretty one-sided.
1. He rarely foregrounds his own conflict of interest
The Dawn Project’s materials present him as a neutral safety advocate. They emphasize F-35, B-1B bombers, NASA Orion, etc., rather than:
“My company sells safety-critical OSes and
tools into Tesla’s competitors’ cars, like the BMW iX.”
He’s not lying about his background, but the economic context (my style of software competes with the ‘move fast’ model that Tesla represents) is not front-and-center in his ads.
2) He cherry-picks worst-case anecdotes and tests
His viral ads show FSD:
Hitting child-sized mannequins in a crosswalk. Tesla sent a cease-and-desist calling the test misleading and unsafe.
Driving into oncoming traffic or poles.
Critics point out that his test setups often don’t use industry-standard pedestrian targets (e.g., Euro NCAP articulated dummies) and may present edge cases in ways that don’t match standardized regulatory test protocols. For a guy who is supposed to be the so-called champion of safety, you would think he would use proper test setups, but why would he when the reality doesn't benefit him?
What’s missing:
How often does FSD behave that badly across millions of miles, not just in carefully engineered demos?. How do his tests compare to formal, repeatable test standards?
He’s basically saying:
“Look at this nightmare clip, therefore ban it,”
without giving a solid denominator.
3) Lack of base-rate and comparative context
He’ll cite numbers like “thousands of crashes and dozens of deaths” involving Tesla automation and extrapolate to “millions would die every day if FSD were in every car.”
Missing pieces:
Human driving is already deadly: ~40k+ people die on U.S. roads every year from human error.
Tesla’s own (self-reported, yes, but still data) safety reports show far fewer crashes per mile with Autopilot enabled compared with both Tesla’s own non-Autopilot miles and the U.S. national average. In recent reports, one crash per ~6–7M Autopilot miles vs ~1M non-Autopilot miles and ~700k U.S. average.
Reasonable people can debate Tesla’s methodology and selection bias, but O’Dowd’s messaging tends to only show:
“Look at these failures → ban it,” without wrestling with the harder question:
“Even if it’s imperfect and occasionally scary, is it net safer per mile than the human status quo?”
That omission makes his argument feel more like moral absolutism than risk analysis.
4) He frames Tesla as uniquely reckless, but barely talks about others.
He heavily targets Tesla while many other OEMs and startups also deploy Level 2 / Level 3 ADAS systems on public roads. Have had crashes and safety investigations.
By focusing almost exclusively on Tesla, he underplays the broader landscape of other systems’ failures and near-misses.The fact that regulation has to scale to the entire autonomy ecosystem, not just Elon. That focus aligns with his media incentives (Tesla == clicks) and with the narrative that this one company is the problem, not the whole structure.
5) He downplays the role of regulators and ongoing oversight
His rhetoric sometimes implies Tesla is just blasting unregulated experimental software onto roads. In reality:
NHTSA has an ongoing Standing General Order forcing reporting of automation-related crashes, and Tesla is under additional audit for reporting.
Regulators may be slower than he’d like, but it’s not true that there’s no framework or that he’s the lone bulwark between FSD and total chaos. That nuance is mostly absent in his campaign materials.
Bottom Line
His legacy is at stake; he is obsolete, so is his software in the new world of AI and robotics, and he is basically seeing his reputation and his company's reputation on the line. He doesn't understand new technology and can be considered obsolete, so is his software in the new world of AI and robotics, and he is basically seeing his reputation on the line, so his ego gets in the way. He has a lot of money, doesn't know where to spend it, so he decides to go against @elonmusk and @Tesla . FSD FOR THE WIN! #fsd #tesla

BREAKING: SpaceX has announced that @Starlink now has over 8 million customers, up from 7M in August and 6M in June 2025.
Starlink added a record 14,250 new customers on average per day since they hit 7M, beating their previous record of 12,200. That growth rate is 17% higher than it was just 2 months ago.
