i feel so bad for nikola tesla like imagine spending years beefing with a guy who has conned the public into believing he's some sort of supergenius when in reality it's his overworked employees developing all of his world-changing inventions and you end up dying broke and starving and alone and then 100 years later another guy cons the public into believing he's some sort of supergenius when in reality it's his overworked employees developing all of his world-changing inventions and he's doing it all IN YOUR NAME. he must be rolling in his grave like a fucking rotisserie chicken
#when penelope scott said ''you promised you'd be tesla but you're just another edison'' she was so right. she gets it#edit: now that this is getting popular i just want to say please don't deify/martyr tesla#yes he was dealt an awful hand but he also had some very bad opinions especially towards the end of his life. like eugenics#he was clearly struggling with untreated mental illness and was also a product of his time so i'm not trying to cancel him or anything lol#but people in the notes saying ''my poor baby boy tesla did nothing wrong'' is weird. you know that's weird right.#daze.txt#100#500#1k#5k#10k#20k#50k#100k#speechless btw. about the 100k notes thing#200k#goddamn.
