    Should Democrats that own Tesla's* be okay receiving these?




    *I'm not a Tesla owner
    Should anyone that owns a Tesla be okay with receiving this? Why single out Dems? Is it because Dems have a conscience and feel empathy?
    I figured that Repubs "get what they voted for," is why.
    So should anyone that owns a Tesla be okay receiving these?
    alerting you to the realistic drop in resale values?
    seems rather helpful to me


    so whats your take on it then?
    My take is that it's shaming people that are Tesla owners. Yes, there is a resale value component to it, but if it was just that, than it'd be a much shorter document. My opinion is it's an attempt to create guilt for owning and pressure to sell in order to have a story of "everyone's selling their Tesla's for a negative story for Musk 

    It's a Swasticar: Musk is a nazi  / People are saying that Musk is a nazi so by owning this car you're a nazi too and your car is a PR disaster.

    Resale value: This is okay on it's own. This is the key for people to sell to hurt Tesla and Musk 

    Better EV options: Helpful to list options other than Tesla's. (Side note: Ford Mustang Mach-E? A car from the Henry Ford company? I'll spare any links to Henry's history).

    It ends with a final "act fast" push. My interpretation of the ending is: it's not your fault you bought a Tesla, but just a heads up it's now considered a Swasticar and you are a nazi too. Unless you sell it.

    tldr: You are complicit with nazi Musk to continue to own a Tesla. Sell it so we have data to show people are dumping them.




    *I'm not an Elon Musk fanboi, nor do I approve of his and Doge's methods.

    That pretty much nails it. People should mind their own business. It’s kinda pathetic.

    This friends, is why even though NASA is based in Houston it launches rockets in Florida

    Because shooting rockets east from Florida… there is just a big ocean

    Elon shooting rockets from the Texas coast… leads to this.

    Nazi “apologist.” There is a difference. Musk made the salute twice and refused to denounce his actions.

    Tesla is fair game. It’s insane that stock is worth what it is, even with the recent dips. To have the wealthiest dude (and not elected) celebrate  the demise of tens of thousands of careers (good luck to those over 45 getting good jobs) without any due diligence is a disgrace. 

    Let’s fire hundreds of thousands while Elon still gets billions from the US govt? Just disgusting. His opponents have every right to try to take him down, as long as they aren’t breaking any laws. Elon don’t mind breaking any.

    Elon and Trump have the power, their opponents have minimal. Let them use their voices, as long as they are not lying, which clearly they are not.

    When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies.

    Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE.

    Funny how that works, huh?

    You know why I don't own a Tesla?  Every time I'm in one (usually a Uber), I can tell they suck.  They feel like thin sheets of metal with spartan comfort levels.  I don't know why people liked them even before Musk went crazy.  They feel like shitty cars.

    Teslas valuation has always been a joke, a lot having to do with the false  belief that Elon is a visionary. With his cars, if there hasn’t been a recall last month, there will likely be one this month. 

    I wouldn’t buy an EV until a few things happen, the battery issues get fixed, and I can recharge and fix the car anywhere, which is likely over a decade away. 

    Until then, people have every right to peacefully target his businesses as long as he is a political figure.

    Exactly...I've been in a Rivian and it is a much better ride. I'm not sure how viable that company is though. I kind of feel like the GM/Ford/Dodge big boys will end up dominating that market as they continue to develop EVs.

    But yeah I like the idea of the Tesla and the electronics are cool but they are shit. There is a guy in my hood that drives one of the refrigerators and he thinks it's great but it looks like a fingerprint covered refrig every time I see it.

    Those are so hideous.  At least the cars look decent enough, they just feel cheap and plasticy all over.  The cyber-trucks are an affront to humanity and good taste.

    I laugh whenever I see one. It’s literally the ugliest thing on the road and these people driving them think they’re so fucking cool. I just can’t help but to point and laugh.

    The cyber truck conveys the exact same message as a pair of testicles hanging off the back of a normal truck all for the low low price of $80K.
