I think that’s an overkill approach to convince us to not buy a Tesla.
and a Boston man was arrested for slapping stickers of Musk making a Nazi-like salute on Tesla vehicles
Better have him taken out back and shot, right? 🙄
Ironic that he referenced Carnegie. Carnegie and Rockefeller were so terrified of the public that Rockefeller refused to leave his mansion for years at a time, and Carnegie fled to England, where he publicly supported Unions, but privately told Frick to squash the strikers. That blew up in his face, and he had to capitulate to all the demands the workers had.
If those guys are supposed to be in uniform - no two are dressed the same. One guy didn’t tie his shoes, another’s jacket doesn’t fit. It is very sloppy and unprofessional looking.
I can’t even get passed how gross it is to see this many cops standing in front of a business where there is no visible evidence of violent activity where people might be harmed. It just looks like a statement saying this is our priority - corporate welfare for the Uber rich and worst possible human specimens at the cost of taxpayer dollars. It’s so gross I can’t even work my way to the nuances of how these slobs are dressed.
It’s what policing is for. It’s never been about protecting people but businesses
Fits in perfectly with the Tesla brand then, doesn’t it.
We shouldn’t make people scared for owning a Tesla, just embarrassed.
i’m gonna lean on the side of “fuck that shit” on this one. buying a tesla is a choice. maga are terrorizing people for things they didn’t choose like skin color, gender, sexual orientation, etc, and that list will only get longer
fuck tesla, and fuck tesla buyers. unlike their holy godman idol musk, i value empathy. but not for people who pridefully show none of it themselves
A lot of regular Tesla owners genuinely didn’t know a ton about the company and until the last few years Musk wasn’t quite so openly a Nazi.
I have zero sympathy for Cybertruck owners but I am going to wait to reserve judgement on average Tesla owners until I have proof it was bought recently and that they are okay with Musk as he is.
The reality is some people can’t just up and trade in the car as easily as they might want to, even if they hate Musk and all he stands for now.
I have a Tesla (2017). Had no idea who this guy was at the time, I just liked the idea of an electric vehicle, and buying into a future without ICE. Cars been great, company not so much.
Musk can go to hell though that’s for sure
People with ordinary Teslas might have bought them before Musk was a total ass. And apart from some dumb ideas like steering yokes and poor emergency releases and build quality they’re not that bad.
The Cybertruck is objectively bad and deserves ridicule regardless of what Lengthy Nutria does.
Model Y Juniper just started shipping this month. Its a glaring sign that says they bought it after everything Musk did.
I wasn’t aware because I don’t follow Tesla but that’s really useful info because you’re damn right.
fair enough. i still say fuck’em. there are many more people much more deserving of my sympathy than fucking tesla owners
There’s tesla buyers who dont even know who musk is or what he does/owns. I dont know who owns BMW, Ford, Volkswagen etc. People could easily decide to buy a tesla and not know.
And using hate to fight hate isn’t always the best, these maga fucks will just use it as fuel for their regime, embarassing them is a much better way, stickers etc sure, but you shouldnt be physically violent to the person.

Citation??
Or, you just guessing based on the sentence that follows… 🤔
I’d bet significant money that 99.999% of rational car-buying adults know the relationship Musk/Tesla. 🤷♂️
Prove there isnt. Just because we sit on the internet well connected, doesnt mean the average joe is. As I was saying about not knowing who owns other automotive companies, can you name them all? Can you tell me all their political views? It’s not too hard to imagine someone buying a tesla without researching the company, come on.
And anyone who does or did know about musk owning them before, could have bought the car before he became a prolific nazi. You cant be serious if you think every tesla owner did deep research into elon musk. Thats so out of touch.
“There’s tesla buyers who dont even know who musk is or what he does”
I’m going to have to call bs on that.
Preordered 2016, bought in 2018 well before he was out of the Nazi closet.
Had service done in 2022, this is how my service advisor signed his fucking email.
It’s embarassing.
Seems unlikely when exposed to communities like this online, seems very likely when you talk to people who dont go online much.
The man is being covered on literally every news source, print, radio, television, and internet
He is (or was) the richest man in the world. You’d have to be living under a rock to not know who he is
What if I told you not everyone buying the car did so with daddy musk on the mind?
I don’t care. It’s not like its a nececity for people to own a swasticar.
Okay. Sell your car right now and buy another one. Prove its not a big deal.
I don’t have a car.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Nah, I got one and I support this. (geting rid of mine)
*swasticar
Yeah just like thousands of civil servants are “embarrased” of losing their jobs. Just like judges are “embarrased” that the executive branch is ignoring their rulings. Just like millions of Ukrainians are “embarrased” of losing their home. Get over your fucking self… we are at war.
I saw my first tesla a few weeks ago. I was walking in a target parking lot, and it passed by me to get to the other end of the parking lot, which is a strip mall.
I felt it was my civic duty to go laugh at what I THOUGHT was going to be a 50 year old white guy with a red hat. I was going to go walk up to him, point, and laugh. Calling him a pussy free loser for driving that car.
I was not prepared for what happened next. I see the car circling around, like it can’t find a spot, even though 90% of the strip mall was empty. Finally, he pulls up right next to the spot I was standing near. I was like “ooooooh, here we go!”
Door opens on the passenger, and 3 little Asian kids get out. Followed by an Asian woman in her 30s. Then the driver side opens. And a blind Asian man gets out.
Now what the fuck am I supposed to do??? I’m still trying to figure out if/how he was driving. I’m not saying being blind is a coverall for shitty behavior like driving a tesla…but I just couldn’t bring myself to call a blind guy a pussy free loser in front of his wife and kids.
NONE of it makes sense. And I feel dumber for having experienced my first tesla.
Seriously though, does ANYONE have any context for how a blind man with seeing stick can drive a car? It’s been driving me crazy, because I know what I saw…I just can’t explain what I saw.
Uh, OK.
NOt entirely blind so a stick helps with curbs and stuff, similar to how there are people who can walk, technically, but benefit from a mobility device.
No one took away his license when they should have, and full self driving helps him appear to function
Agreed they shouldn’t be scared for owning a Tesla. They should be made to live in fear.
Isn’t driving around in one of those poorly-made death trap vehicles enough then?..
…Nah, probably not.
