Nobody Wants a Nazi Electric Car

I guess you could say the same about Hitler, since he didn't personally kill any jews. If killing jews isn't a requirement then there is definetly evidence that musk is a neo-nazi
Seriously?
This is exactly what this polarizing title intended to do. Attract people like you who relativise the atrocities Hitler has done. Populism is a bitch and you're falling right for it.
Just give me a informative article with normal title and stop filling Lemmy with all of this clickbaity populistic shit that helps nobody. I'm tired of it and tired of discussing it too.

I legitimately didn't know about that tweet. Can you share a source? I find a lot of articles but none of them quoting the content in full.
Fuck off with this sea-lioning bullshit. The Nazi salute and AFD promotion were intentional news.
Seriously, what are you getting out of this? It's like arguing the sky isn't blue.

Although he has right-wing ideologies, there is no evidence of Elon Musk being a Nazi. A car can't be a Nazi either.
I'm tired of all of the populism and strong headlines on Lemmy. Actual factual journalism gets burried deep in the feed.
nazis didn't exist, they were all confused autists making awkward gestures

Rivian don't sell vehicles outside the US though so they're always going to be on the back burner internationally. Plus of course, most of the world don't want a pick up truck style vehicle in any case.
Do you really not know about R2 and R3??

What?
Revenue [increased] 2% to $25.71 billion
Yes. Only 25.7 billion dollars. It's practically dead.
2%
It's called inflation.

Will he really need customers much longer? I mean it seems like he can just have any government agency replace their fleet with his trash in the name of "efficiency".
so we can kill government workers and important people easier? i think elon Musk funded the failed trump assassinations /j

Confusing title. How can a car be a Nazi?
The same way you have a nazi uniform.

No evidence, except for that the entire first paragraph of that page describes his exact behavior. No need to be a bootlicker

I came really close back then, had a deposit but canceled due to realizing I had a perfectly good old car and didn't "need" one at the time. Hindsight says I lucked out.
If I did get it, and still had it (I would, I keep cars for 10+ years), I would probably rebadge it as an indicator of my dislike for what the brand has become.
I'd actually love to see a rebadging campaign by dissatisfied owners.
I have BYD badges that should be here any day.

Remember 2015? A Tesla parked in your driveway told your neighbours that you valued innovation, that you possessed an environmental conscience, that you had a stake in the future of the planet. The cars weren't perfect, but they meant something. They represented hope - for clean energy, EVs, and a world beyond fossil fuels.
This was me years go. I new climate change was real and an imminent threat. I wanted to vote with my wallet for a cleaner future. I also wanted to strike a blow against the National Automotive Dealers Association for their regressive practices that hurt consumers and drive prices for cars higher for everyone. Buying a Tesla did those things. I charge the car on sunlight from my house. I was proud to be doing something rather than just talking about needs for changes against climate change.
Musk doesn't get any of my money from this car. I don't pay for any of the Tesla monthly services. I'm don't want to be seen driving with a Tesla logo on the car. I'm ashamed that my good intentions funded a fascist.
Musk still gets some money if you ever need parts. I had to replace the heater and went to non tesla shop. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to get a used heater so I had to buy a new part.

No need to get personal. I'm open for a civilized discussion but not this.
You're not open to calling a Nazi a Nazi. Fuck you.
-
The same way you have a nazi uniform.
The audacity calling me a Nazi. You don't know anything about me. Rekativising the atrocities Hitler has done by using Nazism as a common term. You don't know anything.

Pretty soon the only government workers left will be Trumpler's goons. I'm ok with them dying in swastikars.

"you" was rhetorical. You do understand that someone can wear a Nazi uniform? That is no different than driving a nazi car.

History doesn't repeat itself, but it does rhyme. Musk isn't a member of the Nazi party. He does hold a lot of important views in common with them, however. He also associates with people who fit most of the rest.
What percentage do you think is needed before calling someone a Nazi?

Yes. Only 25.7 billion dollars. It's practically dead.
Q4 2024 was before all the overt nazi shit.
But I agree that calling it dead is premature.

nobody wants a defective car.
Their cars are pretty good. That is not the problem.

I've heard mixed stuff, like some people saying it's plastic and stuff and only serviceable via Tesla if things go wrong?
Others I know have driven it for years and have been happy except the whole Musk shit which leads to your point.

After having seen other manufacturer’s cars at similar prices points, I must say, I disagree.
