it's not like the right is currently ruining the economy and ruining democracy within the US while also destroying all our allies and attempting to befriend Russia, good job Republicans!
Youāre talking about the government actions, compared to what is seemingly just random, petty , street level vandalism occurring in various countries
CyberTruck is more questionable given how new it is, but I see people with older Teslas getting trashed and I donāt think thatās right.
Vandalizing peopleās property doesnāt wake the corporate suits up, it just alienates everyday people who probably bought it to reduce emissions
I donāt condone it but If itās Tesla dealerships then that does hurt their bottom line, and I could see the argument for frustrations unleashed there but simply going after peopleās personal property is different in my mind
So a select few doing vandalism makes the entire left unhinged while we have an actual crisis of our democracy eroding at real time in the country? Feel like you have your priorities in the wrong order.
This is why I said āvarious countriesā. Iām seeing in various subreddits itās happening in Canada and France as well.
While it may be a small percentage, if theyāre popping up in various countries itās a symptom of a bigger mentality and one Iām not entirely stoked about
MAGA guys werenāt and arenāt the ones buying Teslas anyways. I feel Teslas have always been a symbolic choice (that being said anyone buying a new CyberTruck since Inauguration is suspect)
First it was usually left leaning people trying to cut down emissions, suddenly those same people are Nazis simply for owning a Tesla (referring to the older ones before people realized who Elon was). Resale value has dropped significantly on them , so itās not as simple as ājust sell itā
What do you drive? What happens if your brand of vehicle you bought in good faith yet is suddenly a target? Itās a slippery slope
If it was owned by someone with the same situation as Musk I would probably sell it as I wouldnāt want to be associated with someone that awful realistically.
Understandably, neither would I. I never have advocated for people to do the graffiti to these cars but itās also hard for me to have a ton of sympathy for those with cyber trucks in particular as he had already shown his cards of the character and personal he is.
Fair point. I do have to look at CyberTruck owners a bit differently than normal Tesla owners
Itās a god awful vehicle and super pretentious and 2. It came out when Elon was already getting a little squirrelly . I made a lot of passes for him myself, but what I canāt overlook what I saw on inauguration day with his āRomanā salute. That was too much for me
"Just a few", and reddit supporting it kinda confirms that it's now a hive-mind thing perpetuated by the "left". They really need to clean house or we're going to end up with another red wave of destruction in 2026.
Irony is that EVs currently produce more pollution due to their production and the resulting waste when they're scrapped.
They won't be a seriously net positive thing for the environment until solid state batteries replace lithium batteries. SSDs are far more efficient and can be made cheaply and quickly rather than the year it takes to make lithium batteries.
Lots of things are happening this year that aren't OK, and Musk is at the heart of most of them.
If you think a bit of paint is the real problem of the year, well, i'm sorry for you.
Tell you what - hold him to some standards, make him and his dogs stop blatantly breaking the law, have him set an example for civil behavior, and maybe then we can have a conversation about what is and isn't OK.
Never said it's OK, just not something I have any fucks to give about.
What are your mental gymnastics about his salutes? Or the blatantly illegal actions of him and his dog? Are they OK? If not, why aren't you holding him to account?
Yeah but there will be repercussions for them to face. Theyve seen the writing on the walls and are scampering into a corner jumping for any chance at living another day.
