Because one party thinks women should have rights, and the other party tried to overturn the results of a free and fair election. That's how.

Uh, what are you smoking? Both parties demand that woman think a certain way. If they don’t march in line, both excoriate you as being anti-woman. I don’t see why we cannot find a way to ensure that all citizens, of all races and creeds, have access to vote and have their vote counted, while also vetting credentials so that we can verify that those ineligible to vote are kept out. Why can’t we walk and chew gum on this? It shouldn’t be an either-or proposition.

Did anyone expect anything different from a kid who grew up in a rich family that benefitted from Apartheid?

Dude, he grew up in Canada with his single mom and two siblings. Wtf do you just make up stuff from.

Why do you lie? He chose to live with his father when his parents separated and only moved to Canada after finishing high school.

Lol to the wacktivists bent on taking him down.

+1. He's easily the most consequential inventor of our lifetime.

+2. He’s done more to combat climate change than literally everyone who ever posted on this forum combined. That should count for something for true Dems, but sadly politics has become a weird cult where it doesn’t matter what your principles are, it just matters if you have blind allegiance to your specific cult. This goes for Republicans as well, obviously. This country is beyond hope.

He’s a venture capitalist. He didn’t invent the technologies. He bought technology and hired more engineers and inventors.

He founded SpaceX. He is a physicist by education.

He literally is hands on in most engineering decisions in his company. Tesla in another person’s hands would be Chevy Volt or Toyota Prius. Just cause he doesn’t want to be part of your tribe doesn’t mean you have to lie about his qualifications or downplay his influence in EVs.

His obsession with self-driving cars is hurting the business.

Well if he wants us to actually buy them he should know better than to join up with the women's rights stripping party of the insurrection. Just no.

+100

Elon's been promising that full self driving is just around the corner for how long now? Six years? Yikes.

Yup. That sums it up.

Exactly. I don’t have to buy EVs from a misogynistic DB.

He already has gotten people to buy them and a lot of people will still buy them regardless of his politics just like people buy other products without regard for the owners politics. I’m sure almost every old school bourbon and cigarette manufacturer is owned by a right winger yet progressive hipsters still drink Jack Daniels and smoke cigarettes nonetheless. You vastly overrate how much the average person cares about politics. If anything, Elon has broadened his customer base because a lot of culturally conservative Republicans probably didn’t want to drive Teslas before because they thought they were elitists liberal cars. So for every hyperpolitical Dem he loses he picks up a Republican who wants to drive a EV for the first time to “stick it to the libs.”

But is he going to get the MAGA drill baby drill crowd to buy them?

He might get elitist Republicans to buy one for prestige sake but take a look at where EVs are being purchased. Hint - it's not the red states. It's not coal miners and truck drivers and rural residents.

I feel like you don’t know any hipsters at all.

And I would love to watch Republicans’ inner struggle as they tried desperately to figure out how to “own the libs” better: buying a Tesla or not buying a Tesla. would be

Yes but him drawing so much ire from liberals is going to change that is the point.

And for those that think rural people in red states can’t buy a Tesla you should check the prices on a GMC pick up truck. They’re not cheap.

The point was that the average person doesn’t care about an owner of a product’s politics. Chick-fil-A’s business is booming in Montgomery County and bourbon bars are still getting crowds in Williamsburg and the LES despite the politics of a lot of the manufacturers, which obviously can’t be that liberal since they’re all owned by old south money.

ELon musk definitely has gained some douchey streak from his father. Elon's dad had a baby with his stepdaughter (who was 4 year old when Elon's dad married this woman's mother)! This is sick!
