    Have they tried pulling out the "Make a vehicle that's not a massive and shitty death trap," or "Boot the Nazi from the company" stops? Because, I suspect doing those two might help it out.

    Elon is all this company has, just like Trump is literally the only thing going on in the Republican Party. The republicans are going all the way with Trump, straight down the drain, and Tesla will do the same with Musk.

      Is this all you people do is bitch about people the internet tells you not to like? I am willing to bet money the only reason you hate Elon is because the internet gives you upvotes for saying anti-Elon rhetoric.

      I don't need the Internet to tell me not to like Nazis. As a decent human being it's just natural.

        Okay. You’re a Nazi too.
        If we’re just Willy-nilly assigning the word Nazi to anybody we dislike, then you’re a Nazi.
        See how idiotic that is?
        Admit it, you hate Elon because he’s right wing. And you’re too fragile to accept anybody thinking differently from you. Which lead you here, now.
        Embarrassing.

            I just had a talk with a friend of mine in southern Ontario who lives in a farming rural area. He likes cars and often does searches for used vehicles in his area. In a 200km area around Branford, there are over 200 used Teslas on sale down there over the past month or two because people are dumping them because they don't like the brand.

            The well moneyed sort who buy Teslas also like to change cars more often than the rest of us. Some of them are going to even more expensive brands like Rivian, and there’s a huge array of less expensive, more practical options.

            Here’s how I personally see the brand transformation. I don’t believe these people are so principled that they are dumping these cars in protest. It’s more that the appeal that used to be there: of being part of the future, of moving off gas and embracing clean tech to help save the world… that little halo just isn’t part of the brand anymore. Indeed Teslas all the time where I live with license plates like “BYE CO2” and “LOL GAS.” But no one is going to hop on board that Tesla hype train any longer. They are no longer novel, they no longer virtue-signal and yes have actually become a bit icky. But I think we’re just seeing the end of the mirage, not really any kind affirmative lashback.

                I’m betting high odds he will force the federal government to buy them under the guise of a green EV transition. With trump’s full blessing, of course.

                  I've hated him since the "that pedo guy" incident years ago.. I think that is when people started really waking up to the fact he's an incredibly insecure manchild. A bunch of poor kids trapped in a cave.. "how can I make this about ME?"

                    Guarantee you do nothing about it except bitch and cry “fascism” on the internet, while simultaneously never really knowing what fascism is.
                    You people show your low IQ every day, and I fucking love it so much.
                    “Elon musk is a Nazi fascist” - Yep. Hates Jews, hates niggers, wants to hang little Mexican children.
                    The fact you people think that’s actually reality is fucking insane. No wonder you’re all confused which gender you are.

                    Are you getting paid to suck Elon's dick? This thread is full of comments by you supporting him. I don't know why someone would defend a billionaire so fiercely.

                      Hi Elon. No, we hate you because you know you have Asperger's, think yourself smart, but are blind to the fact that you need people in your life to filter your thoughts and actions to cover your weak areas and flawed perceptions.

                      Only a fool thinks himself beyond improvement. Elon Musk is a great example of squandered potential and self delusion.

                        He's just a toxic troll, check his comment history there's nothing of value there. It's real easy to block users on Lemmy, your online experience will be better off without him.

                            Tesla just needs a new slogan or a good marketing campaign.

                            Something like:

                            Tesla - power by joy

                            Or "Kraft durch Freude" in German.

                            All that would perfectly fit the brand image.

                            Kraft durch Freude

                            Nice, how about "Cars enabling Freedom" or "Autos machen frei"?

                                Do you live in reality? I’m willing to bet 5 years or so ago, you absolutely adored Elon. Now that Reddit and Facebook and TikTok are telling you to hate him, you hate him.

                                    I certainly find it funny that Tesla's waiting list went from five years down to zero. Even Tesla's biggest fans who actually stumped money on this thing produced video after video griping about its price & brokenness.

                                    But frankly it was kind of obvious from the get-go that it would be an expensive, uninsurable, lemony asshole death mobile. I wonder if the next time Tesla announces something and Musk spews lie after lie about it that people will start to cotton on that nothing he says can be taken at face value.

                                        No not the same. Forums didn't revolve around media, they revolved around discussions.

                                        And I'm 37, thankyouverymuch

                                          I think the reason Cybertruck sales have ground to a halt has to do with their CEO Department's way of managing things and breaking into Governmental Agency's Private Information. It's also the reason you will find "FUCK ELON MUSK" being spray-painted onto Cybertrucks.
