"The thing with the terrorists is you have to take out their families, when you get these terrorists, you have to take out their families. They care about their lives, don’t kid yourself, when they say they don’t care about their lives, you have to take out their families."

Keep boycotting, and join protests outside Tesla showrooms. ~60% of Musk’s wealth is in Tesla shares. Tank the stock and tank his wealth and thus influence

There are protests all across the US and starting to spring up in other countries. Here’s a list of upcoming ones + a guide to help organize one around you if none exist

This is the easiest boycott of my life. I love it

Searching on Google “how to sell my tesla” or “how to sell my tesla stock” hurts their shares. Scheduling a test drive and not showing up wastes their time and resources :)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well if I'm gonna schedule a test drive i may as well test the hell out of it, no?

Read those waivers and see how much you can get away with 😈 “oops, I lost control and scratched the shit out of the side”

Just because we want electronic cars, doesn't means we'll take Tesla's.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I don't want electric cars. I want electric trains.

Trump is for sale.

That's so fucking gross

Such a historical site defaced for such a purpose.

I hope someone's dog shits on the white house lawn and doesn't clean it up

This the same dipshit who wants to halt federal EV buildout, EV Programs, and federal building charging stations. I doubt any of you needed reminding, but JFC, it pains me that some dummy is gonna buy an EV only AFTER he sat in one for political theater.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

Well, yeah. It's the same boomer move: pull the ladder up behind you. Musk and Tesla already benefitted from the programs he now wants to cut, to raise the barrier of entry for potential competitors...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 23 hours ago

Sawsticars aren't profitable without the carbon taxes credits. Notice no one has suggested getting rid of those.

Those public chargers are competion with Musk's Tesla chargers. The only profitiable part of Tesla.

😂 what a waste. I doubt this even moves the needle on public perception. Rednecks aren't buying these things only well off urban Republicans. I can't think many leftists give a shit about these things. They may be fast, but they have no class.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

especially considering how restricted by range and chargers people are subject to in more rural areas.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 18 hours ago

Partially true. It moves the perception against Tesla, xelon & president felon. Sales will drop further.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

Surely associating the vehicles even more closely with the primary reason the stock is falling off of a fucking cliff will prevent the stocks from falling off of a cliff.
