Since when does being right-wing make you a Nazi?

Nazi's are far-right to the extreme, Musk and Trump are Right-Wing. Nothing more. Disagreeing with them doesn't make them Nazi's and calling them Nazi's actually says more about that persons intolerance than they think it does.

We all saw the nazi salute, then we saw him do it a second time just to drive the point home.

Since when doing a Nazi-salute makes you not-a-nazi?

[-] theneverfox@pawb.social 1 points 3 minutes ago

When you're a billionaire. Then it turns out, you're just giving your heart to the crowd. And then, when you fund and speak at Nazi party rallies overseas, you're just fighting "woke" or something. And when you agree that "Jews are doing ethnic replacement" on Twitter, you just have to take pictures at a concentration camp and you're a "friend of Israel"

But I do enjoy when people get fired because they think they can do it too

You won't but you should watch this https://youtu.be/xDyPSKLy5E4

[-] TypicalHog@lemm.ee 2 points 2 hours ago

I'd take one, lol.

[-] computerscientistII@lemm.ee 21 points 7 hours ago

What?

Revenue [increased] 2% to $25.71 billion

Yes. Only 25.7 billion dollars. It's practically dead.

[-] realharo@lemm.ee 13 points 3 hours ago

Q4 2024 was before all the overt nazi shit.

But I agree that calling it dead is premature.

[-] Don_alForno@feddit.org 12 points 6 hours ago

2%

It's called inflation.

[-] Ledericas@lemm.ee 28 points 10 hours ago

nobody wants a defective car.

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 12 points 8 hours ago

They've probably had more recalls on the cyber truck than they've had sales of the cyber truck

A more concise headline is "Nobody wants a Swastikar"

[-] FanciestPants@lemmy.world 51 points 14 hours ago

Will he really need customers much longer? I mean it seems like he can just have any government agency replace their fleet with his trash in the name of "efficiency".

[-] rivan@lemm.ee 5 points 2 hours ago

He tied the financing of his loan to buy Twitter with Tesla shares, if they tank it pressures the Saudis to call in the billions they loaned him for the purchase. He'd survive, but it would embarrass him which would be funny.

[-] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago

Apparently a big part of Tesla's business is selling carbon credits to other automakers... Which relies on them having a certain number of EV sales. If they drop below a threshold, then they can't sell those credits anymore.

[-] pewgar_seemsimandroid 4 points 6 hours ago

so we can kill government workers and important people easier? i think elon Musk funded the failed trump assassinations /j

[-] Goodmorningsunshine@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago

Pretty soon the only government workers left will be Trumpler's goons. I'm ok with them dying in swastikars.

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 6 points 8 hours ago

Even worse is, he can use the government to sabotage the competition, as Russia and Hungary did.

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 75 points 17 hours ago

It is mental that a man worth billions in mostly electric car companyv shares is courting people who would run their cars on coal if they could.

[-] apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world 36 points 15 hours ago

A man who has made his billions on being essentially a corporate welfare queen.

Nobody at Tesla headquarters voted to alienate their customer base. No board meeting decided to turn their electric car company into a political lightning rod.

This is technically not true. The board keeps Elon Musk on as CEO of Tesla, and they granted him the biggest bonus package ever, while he was already very controversial and clearly was losing his mind, because they thought he would be able to make them money.

[-] scarabic@lemmy.world 4 points 2 hours ago

You are 100% correct. They knowingly doubled down on him. They can all ride his coattails straight to hell.

[-] borth@sh.itjust.works 66 points 19 hours ago

You're right, that's not just technically untrue. The board voted with their wallet, by giving him even more money than ever, so he could continue doing what he is doing. The people on the board wouldn't give a shit if only Nazis buy their cars, as long as there's enough of them to keep buying.

I believe this is the part where we get sued for not buying his cars.
