    That's because Tesla cars blowing up is more interesting and in your face than just the same old news day after day about "4000 people dying per day".

    After all, it comes from the plug.

    TB is curable and preventable but has been killing 4k people a day for decades in the poorest parts of the world. Zero outrage over that, indeed a sick world.

    Actually, it's far worse than that. Around 150,000 people die everyday around the globe. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortality_rate

    The dip already came, the TSLA stonk is going back to new all time highs.. $1000
     
  8. Agreed, the bubble is vicious and the price action is flagging near resistance, 1k being a mile marker number is most likely within 2 weeks, as always stock will bore out everyone then boom blast up unexpectedly

    Its just the way the media works. Nothing much to do with selecting what is important in the real world. Watching less news and reading more history are effective antidotes.

    I think a lot of it just has to do with how humans normalize things.

    My dad grew up in Europe during WW2 and I asked him what it was like, and he said it was like having five 9/11 events, every single day, month after month after month.

    But eventually, even with all that chaos, he said there was a normalization that happened and life went on.

    If 9/11/01 wasn't a singular event, but rather a daily event that went on for 12 months straight, eventually it wouldn't be very big nightly news, because the shock and awe effect of it would have warn off. It would have just become a normal way of life.

    And most important not to forget - the entertainment industry (news, Hollywood, sports, etc) needs novelty to attract viewers. The human brain seems hardwired to be attracted to new things.
