Hasn’t Elon repeatedly said the Boring Company is a hobby company that he doesn’t spend a lot of time on and that tunnels to ease congestion are a long way away and too expensive for most cities?

I’d like to see more specifics about what specific promises aren’t being kept besides Boring marketing hyping up its theoretical usability.

Edit: Honestly, you guys are as equally weird with your hate boner has the fan boys with love boners. I’m not a “fan” by any measure but I know damn well they have cautioned everyone that this was a very aloof concept that won’t happen anytime soon, as well as a marketing tool for Tesla since electrics could be in sealed tunnels easier than ICE vehicles. Some of these comments are claiming he is scamming cities and breaking promises, like what promises did Boring make to any city?

Who cares what he says when the idea is bad to begin with. Tunnels aren't a replacement for actual transit - it's just more induced demand.

But he hasn’t asked anyone to buy any…. They’ve bought all their own land for testing and repeatedly stated it’s just a concept and not to put a lot of weight behind it.

Edit: again, you guys are weird with this hate boner. Downvote and lie all you want.
