    It’s not like he wrapped the car with a bunch of inflammatory imagery like I’ve seen some have.

    I would argue that the car itself is inflammatory to anyone who believes he’s a fascist.

    He’s just got his stupid car and people are fucking with it.

    If goebbels had a car company and you bought a car from him, fully knowing he was a Nazi… I would probably say there’s a pretty high chance you are also a Nazi.

    This doesn’t help crash Tesla. It doesn’t hurt Tesla at all. It’s misdirected.

    If your car gets trashed every time you take it out because of the public’s disdain for its CEO, are you going to buy another?

      I agree. But many of these CTs were sold well before Musk went all Nazi.

      He’s been a weirdo for years, but that’s somewhat understandable when people get a fuck ton of money. Look at John McAfee.

      Yes, trashing Tesla’s makes people not want to buy them. I just think trashing the Tesla infrastructure is better.

        Ehh… Maybe valid with other Teslas, but musk has been letting the mask slip way before late 2023.

        I just think trashing the Tesla infrastructure is better.

        Why not both?
