    My neighbor has one and seems to like it.

    Another tRumpster friend in the hood just bought one a few months ago and is having a lot of trouble with it. Serves her right.

    You’re wishing car trouble on your friend because she voted for trump? She’s your friend, so I assume a good person? 
    This whole thing seems odd to me. I know nothing about Musk other than he’s the Tesla guy and just bought Twitter. I saw people upset when he wanted to buy Twitter, then they got upset when he backed out. Now he’s taking crap for it again and people are wishing bad luck on his company and cars? Even if he’s a douche, and maybe he isn’t or isn’t, I don’t follow anything about him, I’d still root for a reliable electric car company.

    Because she voted for tRump (she proudly has a tRump flag on a pole in her yard...no US flag) and because she calls me (and people like me) stupid on her FB posts basically every day. So yeah, fuck her.

    So a Facebook friend, but not a real friend?  I wouldn’t wish bad luck on real friends whoever they voted for. A FB friend who I didn’t like, maybe.

    It's not like I want the car to blow up while she's driving it...

    She is the mother of one of my son's friends. She loves tRump and makes that very clear. She also makes it very clear that democrats are stupid almost on a daily basis.

    I finally threw in the towel with this guy and sold all my shares of Tesla this morning. I once thought Musk was on to something/a visionary businessman. Turns out he’s a joke, and a resentful one at that. won’t be surprised to see him go full on Howard Hughes in a few years.

    Yes. He said “another trumpeter friend.” I took that to mean a friend of his who voted for trump. What else am I supposed to think that means? Someone online he barely knows?

    admittedly I wasn't specific....I should have said FB "friend"

    Funny/not funny thing about her is that she was arrested about 15 years ago for dealing cocaine. She also is an alcoholic that falls off the wagon frequently. She actually went a few years sober but fell back into it and got another DUI a year or so ago. You can tell when she's drinking by her FB posts as she will get belligerent as hell.

    But she isn't afraid to call me and people like me stupid....she's good at that. So she either figures all of her FB "friends" are red meat republicans or she doesn't care that she is insulting us.

    This about sums up where I'm at too. Unfortunate to see the real Elon Musk sucks.

    Think Musk's increasingly erratic (aka shitty) behavior and / or Tesla being ranked 27th out of 28 for reliability last year has anything to do with it, or are people just "haters"?

    I've asked a few on here if we could start a grass roots campaign to "take the flag back".  I want it to represent the country again, not one group only.

    I still want to start it.  Maybe I will.  #TakeItBack will be my call symbol.

    No they are haters.  Rubes that were fooled but have had the scales dropped from their eyes and are now resentful and hurt that their electric messiah was just a trumped up capitalist huckster.

    same thing is happening here. every time I see some asshole on the road with a "defund the CBC" or "fuck trudeau" inevitibely they have a Canadian flag too. apparently being "classy" is on the ven diagram with patriotism.

    I’ll never fly the stars&stripes again the flag has been desecrated and taken over by MAGA cultist, I’ll fly a rainbow flag instead or a peace one. 
    I've asked a few on here if we could start a grass roots campaign to "take the flag back".  I want it to represent the country again, not one group only.

    I still want to start it.  Maybe I will.  #TakeItBack will be my call symbol.
    same thing is happening here. every time I see some asshole on the road with a "defund the CBC" or "fuck trudeau" inevitibely they have a Canadian flag too. apparently being "classy" is on the ven diagram with patriotism. 
    Yep that’s what happened here in the states the kidnapped the Flag! I refuse to wave it or fly it from my house! I don’t ever want to be associated with the MAGA cult! 
    jesus greets me looks just like me ....

    How many haters wanted to buy 3 Teslas just 2 years ago?
    My neighbor has one and seems to like it.

    Another tRumpster friend in the hood just bought one a few months ago and is having a lot of trouble with it. Serves her right.
    You’re wishing car trouble on your friend because she voted for trump? She’s your friend, so I assume a good person? 
    This whole thing seems odd to me. I know nothing about Musk other than he’s the Tesla guy and just bought Twitter. I saw people upset when he wanted to buy Twitter, then they got upset when he backed out. Now he’s taking crap for it again and people are wishing bad luck on his company and cars? Even if he’s a douche, and maybe he isn’t or isn’t, I don’t follow anything about him, I’d still root for a reliable electric car company.
    Because she voted for tRump (she proudly has a tRump flag on a pole in her yard...no US flag) and because she calls me (and people like me) stupid on her FB posts basically every day. So yeah, fuck her.
    The Trump flag part always gets me.

    You'll hang a Trump flag but not an American flag?

    I recently bought a shirt of a canadian band I like, and they use their logo (below, with no writing) as the centre of the candian flag instead of the maple leaf (they've used this design since the 90's), and whenever I wear it I notice a lot of people stare pretty long at it. I'm not sure if they're trying to figure out what it is, or if they think I'm some "freedumb" nutjob.

    Think Musk's increasingly erratic (aka shitty) behavior and / or Tesla being ranked 27th out of 28 for reliability last year has anything to do with it, or are people just "haters"?

    No they are haters.  Rubes that were fooled but have had the scales dropped from their eyes and are now resentful and hurt that their electric messiah was just a trumped up capitalist huckster.
    Gotcha. I guess the term 'haters' has a lot more nuance and specificity to it that I realized.

    In this case I guess.  I think the car reliability issues weren't a problem for the fan boys and fan girls when he was "saving the world" and "not like the other billionaires", it really seems like those have only become issues once they realized that he was indeed an asshole all along.

    So a Facebook friend, but not a real friend?  I wouldn’t wish bad luck on real friends whoever they voted for. A FB friend who I didn’t like, maybe.
    another trumpster friend in the hood.....


    do you read what people write?

    Yes. He said “another trumpeter friend.” I took that to mean a friend of his who voted for trump. What else am I supposed to think that means? Someone online he barely knows?
    admittedly I wasn't specific....I should have said FB "friend"

    Funny/not funny thing about her is that she was arrested about 15 years ago for dealing cocaine. She also is an alcoholic that falls off the wagon frequently. She actually went a few years sober but fell back into it and got another DUI a year or so ago. You can tell when she's drinking by her FB posts as she will get belligerent as hell.

    But she isn't afraid to call me and people like me stupid....she's good at that. So she either figures all of her FB "friends" are red meat republicans or she doesn't care that she is insulting us.
    And it makes morse sense now. I get it. I'm rarely on FB, and when I am I am almost never political.
    I had an acquaintance who was all fired up in the 2020 riots. Encouraging the rioters, saying things like they have a right to burn down businesses to make their voices heard, if you disagree then you're racist, things like that. I just responded by pointing out she is a small business owner, if you're okay with burning down a business as a form of a protest why don't you post the address of your business then? She blocked me. 
    I don't wish her any specific harm, but I wouldn't have felt bad if her place did burn down.

    I guess she lives in a "superhero movie reality" where no good guys ever get hurt by any other good guy carnage.
