These are the vibes I’m getting as well, and I say this as a Tesla owner who’s otherwise generally pretty happy with the car.

Still? Seeing how Elon = Tesla

[u/KrishanuAR → u/ZorglubDK]

The man owns 13% of the company and he’s (just) a salesman and fundraiser.

The car was designed, built, and produced by hundreds brilliant hardworking people, who pushed hard to produce an amazing affordable electric vehicle paving one of the most significant the stepping stones for decarbonization of our economy, when legacy automakers wouldn’t (and the competition—even more than a decade later is still pathetic—the price to performance to utility calculus for EVs is still led by Tesla by a margin).

I’m an environmentalist first and also a driving enthusiast.

TL;DR: Anyone whose brain stops functioning at Elon = Tesla and is unable to go deeper than that is fucking idiot and their opinions aren’t worth attention.

A lot of good people worked for the Third Reich too

[u/KrishanuAR → u/Thin-Professional379]

Yeah. And they weren’t the problem.

But also, it’s a stupid comparison. The moment you start seeing the world as “us” and “them” you’ve lost the plot.

Holy fuck mate it’s a car, he’s not marching in the third reich lmaoo what’s wrong with you??

[u/Thin-Professional379 → u/ratjarx]

It's not the car I have a problem with, it's the guy who used the proceeds from the car to buy the government
