Comment on The Tesla protests are getting bigger — and rowdier
solsangraal@lemmy.zip 1 year agoi’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 Teslas 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.
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
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.
