It's still a status symbol, it's the meaning of that symbol that's changed. Used to be cool, now it means you support a man-child that dead names his own trans kid.

Yeah, but also support green (ish) transportation. The intersection of people who believe in global warming and are anti LGBTQ+ rights is a small ass market for Tesla.

Electric cars aren't saving the planet, they're saving the auto industry and preventing us from getting actual public transportation.

Plus look at the micro plastics from their tires from those heavy pieces of shit.

I just said people that are superficially eco-conscious enough to buy an electric car aren't usually anti LGBTQ+.

I agree, electric cars aren't the solution.
