You realize there’s a flip side to this too, right? There are many people like me who are watching the current moment with awe and eternal gratitude and view Elon as a national hero.

I had never even considered buying an EV in the past, but I can say with 100% certainty that my next car purchase will be a Tesla.

Yes, but I suspect the number of Nazis wanting to buy Teslas is smaller than the number of moderates who are turned off by his Hitler salutes and gutting of international health programs. Enjoy your car, and your moral bankruptcy, you PoS.

Exactly, and they are already seeing sales declines from late 2024, and there is a very mature market of competitors more than able to grab that demand as it shift away from Tesla. A few years ago it seemed like they had a moat- a much stronger, proprietary network of chargers, advantages in battery tech, a path to robo-cars. Now they have no advantage in any of those and the moat is gone.

What's happening now is BULLYING of Tesla drivers and workers at the dealerships. This isn't supply demand, demand is artificially. Bullying of regular people, many who owned these cars for years, setting cars on fire at the dealerships (declaring domestic terrorism now). This isn't going to last. Something will have to happen. Once a few idiots are thrown in jail this too shall pass.

You keep on going on about jail. You are bonkers. No one wants these cars because the company is owned by a Nazi. Plus the technology is crappy.

They are everywhere in NOVA, and also in DC. NYC has a ton too, very popular with UBER drivers, and Revel car sharing uses them. Where do you live? Maybe you should leave your mama's basement sometimes.

There have been popular, death trap cars in the past. They are labeled dangerous after numerous families are dead or maimed. Also, good luck ever getting society to trust Tesla with implementing self-driving technology.

Again, you are fear mongering. Tesla doesn't have a track record of being a dangerous car compared to others. And yes, they are everywhere, open your eyes. Several homes in our neighborhood have more than one tesla. We used to have a BMW sedan which left us stranded on a highway more than once. Are BMWs death trap cars given how many parts are made out of plastic and how frequently they need repairs?

Anyway, if you want to be a useful idiot keep spreading propaganda instilling fear in Tesla existing owners trying to force them to sell. Today there was a huge fire at a Las Vegas dealership with people's cars set on fire who brought them in for service. There is also supposedly a website that has a map and private info of Tesla private owners for anyone wanting to target them at their homes with vandalism or even recipes of molotov's cocktails. It's all being investigated and not a trivial matter to mess with unless you do want to end up in jail or become a useful idiot helping to usher in martial law.

If you want to protest make sure you do it peacefully in proper venues and in no way targeting people who already own these cars. This means no erratic driving on the roads, no vandalism, and sure as hell, no fires.

Why the long, Elon-coddling screeds? No one cares. The stock is getting shorted again today. The company will be worth like $40 soon.
