I live in one of the Eastern countries and surprisingly most tesla owners I see on the street are from Ukraine. We don’t even have developed infrastructure to use that car.

The only creatures that should buy a Tesla are from the fucking AfD.

Because only rich Ukranians could afford them, and the rich ones fled Ukraine when the war kicked up.

And those from the fucking UK apparently.
Very similar though - just waiting for them to elect farage to gut UK public services.

Lol definitely won’t, they’re super anti-EV after all. I mean, they even want to get rid of all wind power plants. xD

This is what makes Musk’s B-line towards Nazi stardom so strange to me. Like, did he think Nazis were suddenly going to start buying electric cars? They literally put nuts on their trucks right next to their bumper stickers using homosexual slurs to describe electric vehicles, all while “rolling coal” in front of every Tesla they see on the road.
These are the people you want to market to?
And at the expense of your existing market?

He’s a fraud that knows his time is up and the only way out is through manipulating politics. That’s basically the playbook of every grifter these days.

Musk isn’t doing all of this to sell more Teslas

I keep wondering how much of his behaviour has to do with his estranged kids telling him he’s a dick as well as his Ketamine abuse.

This is why I wouldn’t put it past them to try to hide the real sales numbers. Wouldn’t surprise me if they’re down 90+ percent and the company is effectively dead already. The board of directors are Elon’s creatures and their personal wealth will depend on keeping the facade (and stock price) up so they aren’t about to cry foul.
