My friend’s father bought a 2025 Tesla after my friend begged him not to, but a boomer’s gotta boomer. Suffice to say, it hasn’t gone well for him, so the man went and put this decal on his car. My brother in Christ, you are driving a freshly redesigned car. Nobody is going to believe your swastikar is pre-COVID.
I get that people like to hate on stuff, but I think the Tesla thing should have really passed by now. If I had to put a sticker on all types of shit I buy and the manufacture of which lined the pockets of devilish CEOs and billionaires I would go bankrupt on buying stickers. Sure a Tesla has always sort of been a statement and it is a big investment, but I really think that one year after Trump’s election and Elon “going crazy” we shouldn’t lynch people for having one.
Tesla is literally funding Elon and all his misdeeds. His entire net worth is tied to Tesla.
His networth from SpaceX and xAI is worth more than Tesla at current prices.
It’s probably easier to take loans out against his Tesla shares being a public company, but his networth is not remotely tied entirely to Tesla.
All his Tesla shares could suddenly vanish, and he’d still likely be worth more than Zuckerberg and be the 3rd or 4th richest person.
We can pass on when Elon no longer has financial ties to the company. Or he somehow makes a massive turnaround as a human being (not likely, but we can always be generous and leave open the possibility). We don’t ignore issues just because time has passed.
It’s the insane price tag of it (given that it’s a car) combined with the fact that beyond the usual evil ceo shit he’s politically active and manipulating public discourse in favor of fascism.
Are you just a Nazi sympathizer or are you yourself a full blown Nazi?
Exactly what I’m talking about. I could be Karl Marx himself but if I question whether hating on people for the car they use is correct then I’m accused of being a fucking nazi.
“Hating on people for knowingly supporting Nazis”
And
“Hating on people for defending Nazi supporters”
no you are hating people for using a car. you could be hating people for using a car in general, you could be hating people for using amazon or facebook or buying groceries in a chain owned by “a nazi”, but hating people for using a tesla is more focused. it’s easier. belive me i too think elon musk is an asshole but targeting people for owning a fucking car is a bit over the top if you ask me or i assume any reasonable man. i wouldn’t buy one. it’s overpriced, stupid and run by an asshole, who sure you could call a nazi. but not caring is a right anyone in a democracy has. you bought a tesla because you like elon? fuck you sure. you bought one because just? not very cool to not give a shit about elon being a nazi, but sure, you have the right to do that.
Who’s targeting them? What exactly do you mean?
Are you saying I should stop calling out Nazi supporters for supporting Nazis and just be quiet?
It’s not like I go damaging their cars or hurting them in any way, other than calling them fucking nazi supporters. Which is what they are.
