Well, I did Nazi that coming
Maybe Musk should sue them...
Well for obvious reasons. But also bcs their product is crap quality. My neighbour keeps on pouring grand after grand for stupid repairs into his model S
That can't be, teslas never break and don't need maintenance. Many people said it, smart people
I'm not going to sell a perfectly useable Model Y after a year just because the CEO is a cunt. But I'm going to tell everyone that he's a cunt with 30 stickers plastered all over the useless rear window
Fair point. I won’t judge Tesla drivers. I’ll judge Tesla drivers that don’t have a load of stickers on their car.
I remember headlines of people burning their Nikes when they learned the company was woke or something. Burn your car mate, that'll show them for sure!
Sell it to who, Ben? Fucking Aquaman?
Good choice, no point throwing it away if it was too late for you to realize, but it's more powerful as a platform to disavow Musk and Tesla.
The US is collapsing and all I got was this lousy car
May every business that brings this man profit tank until he learns some empathy.
Anyone still driving a Tesla needs a bit of verbal abuse.
Tesla ownership is its own punishment.
Sure, I'd judge someone if they bought a new one recently as well, but I think you're being a bit unreasonable. Not everyone can afford to switch cars.
Maybe they just like the car. Not everything has to be political. Especially if they get it 2nd hand, the depreciation is huge. So someone could get a nice Tesla for great money. Doesn't mean they like Elon or support him.
Buying 2nd hand is greener and doesn't support him.
When the owner is that political, it becomes political though. “If 9 people sit at a table with one Nazi…” etc etc.
It does though, their most profitable (as in profit margin) businesses areas are the subscription based services and charging.
I don’t know about abuse but I do judge people with Teslas purchased in the last 5 years. Before that the completion was lacking and it was less evident to most people that the CEO is a cunt, but now even if you ignore Elon, it’s just a crazy purchase when all the other manufacturers have caught up in electric and arguably produce better vehicles with less issues.
I'd be interested to see some market analysis that looks into the reasons for the sales declines. In particular, how much is driven by poor product quality versus how much is due to Musk being a knobhead.
The TSLA crash going to be glorious, can't wait.
Turns out that siding against voters interested in human sustainability, and pro oil extortionist conservatives bent on climate and human destruction is not a good EV marketing strategy. I have an MBA... AMA
Also doing a nazi salute in front of thousands of people with full blown media coverage.
WWII might be a distant memory for Americans, but most of Europeans have been to historical sites of Jewish genocide.
I'm still friends with my ex, who's American (as I am), but it's far from a distant memory for her. 90% of her extended family on her mother's side died in Auschwitz. Nearly as many on her father's side were murdered too,
Its investment in the Cybertruck is of no help in the region, as the steel-clad pickup truck is too large and heavy for use with a normal driver's license and does not conform to road legality regulations.
I was not aware of this. Further reasons to laugh at Musk are always welcome!
This metal blob goes against so many safety regulations in Europe, it is basically unfixable. And even then you would need a truckers licence to drive it, like the ones for big commercial trucks.

This sparks joy.
"Europe and the UK" did they move the UK to another continent, or did they mean the EU?
You know exactly what was meant.
You see there was this little thing called Brexit....
Oh right, is that when they moved to a different tectonic plate?
Oh I see what you're saying. Yeah, they probably should have said EU but it's a little pedantic to pretend you didn't know.
Welcome to the internet.
Yes.
So, I hate to be the breaker of bad news, but the UK has left the EU 🤷 Don't shoot the messenger
EU ≠ Europe
Europe is a continent. The European Union is a group of countries in Europe, no longer including the UK.

Gimme cheap, simple and reliable EV with guaranteed 200km range and I'm sold. I don't need bazillion of cameras inside and out, I don't need glass roof, I don't need 200kW of ridiculous power I would never use, I don't need always online maps for a subscription fee and I don't need 20" infotainment, neither I need 3 zone AC with ventilated seats and ballsack massage device, etc. I just want a Dacia of EV market.
VW E-Up is cheap and really good

Honestly people would have to be basically mad to buy tesla now, same with twitter etc.
I sympathise with people who starlink is the only option but yeah I'd rather go without.
Let’s get to 95% down in Q1 of 2025.
