But other Tesla models are still selling much better than the Nazitruck. If we want to make a point and make a dent in Musk's profits as he strips our country for scrap metal and fires everyone, we need to discourage people from associating with anything that gives the bastard more money/power.
You have my full support and i fully agree on your last point but in nuance Tesla could go bankrupt and Musks wealth will hardly make a dent. With a budget of spending a mil a day it would still take centuries to blow trough all his money.
Isn't most of his wealth in stocks? If investors think Tesla is a bad stock (because no one will buy the cars), then Musk is poor.
Actually you are correct. I thought i had found a number for his liquid money but it wasn’t.
Also got a bit hung up on his stake in Tesla being just 13% but with Tesla being valued at ~900B thats still over ~100B of his ~320B “value”
Someone on Lemmy once calculated that he could lose 99% of his net value, then lose 99% of what's left and he'd still be a multimillionaire. From the 320B, that would still leave him with 32M.
Also worth noting that he's stated himself that his companies' values are all heavily tied together, and that it's a "carefully balanced house of cards". If Tesla falls, so to does everything else.
Sooner than later his shareholders will sue him for burning their money. This should be interesting.
Yes it is, and crashing Tesla stock will certainly make him less rich. He still has his other shit companies, so crashing Tesla stocks alone won't make him poor, but we might not have to hear quite so much about him.
Tesla and space x are the big ones.
Agreed, and a big advertisor exodus from Twitter would help.
You didn't hear? They're coming back as "not advertising is more risky" now that he has all this power...
It's not about denting his money, it's about denting his image. Let the free market see he's toxic, and that will send ripples to places even Republicans care about: their wallets. Specifically, it can impact Tesla stock.
Republicans dropped any pretense of caring about free markets. Auto makers were already getting bailed out, and now he's bought the Oval Office.
Yeah but I bought a used model 3 a couple years ago and I really like it :( I don't want one nazi asshole to ruin it for me but it's a losing battle. I reserved an Aptera 2 or 3 years ago and I was hoping to not get another car until that's ready.
2 days late, but I too have spent the last 7 years being ready for Aptera to start delivery late next year.
They're so close 🥲
I've already got a bunch of vanity plates ready to go so I can flex on teslas.
Nice. Which version did you reserve? I'd like to go all out and get the 100kWh battery but I'm reluctant to do so since I think 60kWh would be plenty and it's a $10k difference.
100kWh batt, full solar package, no self driving.
I don't need 1000 miles of range, but the battery is the only part of an EV that really degrades with usage, so I see the excessively large battery as an insurance policy against the car aging. I'd like for the Aptera to be the last car I ever buy.
Same. Telo is very appealing too, sometimes I go on camping/festival road trips and I take a bunch of stuff with me. Telo recently announced they'll be integrating Aptera solar panels, but the range obviously isn't anywhere close to Aptera's. If I ever end up owning 2 cars then I might have one of each.
Just gotta get a prominent "Fuck Elon Musk" bumper sticker and you're good
I got a license plate holder that says "F ELON" in the tesla font. And I'm replacing the tesla badges with the logo from the SW rebel alliance.
Okay now I want to see pictures! :3
The license plate holder should be arriving any day now, then I'm going to wash my car and install everything. I'll post pics when it's all done.
Nice
