Cars are expensive and attacking people who worked hard to get what they once thought was the option in the market is counterproductive.
I’m all for this on the dealerships but a lot of people can’t afford to just sell their vehicle, some can’t afford normal maintenance expenses, on a vehicle that is likely heavily financed.
I mean, all out for cybertrucks and the other arseholes that are now aware of who Musk really is and what a fraud Tesla as a brand is but indiscriminately attacking ALL Teslas could be hurting vulnerable people that aren’t in the financial situation to dispose of their car.
This is a boring take. Everyone to the center left has tried extensively to talk through why what’s happening is bad, wrong, awful, stupid, in all the best faith ways there is to literally deaf ears. Every word is intentionally misunderstood and weaponized for further propaganda. Speech has been watered down by a torrent of others saying nothing and nonsense.
Tesla has been steadily declining with every action Elon takes. Trade-ins exist, they’ve been viable for years. If they’ve had them for awhile, they bought them when they were considered cutting edge. Who is buying bleeding edge tech while being financially unable to trade it in for something else from then to now?
Talking has produced nothing, warranting action. Elon has been steadily descending into madness for all to see, it’s no secret and it wasn’t fast. Those who still have them and those that buy them even now do so willingly. Ignorance at this stage is not an excuse. These people aren’t vulnerable any more than someone who buys a pair of Yeezy shoes. “What if they can’t afford another pair??” Brother stop.
Exceptions to every rule. Why haven’t you, since learning this, attempted to trade it in? I understand not being able to get an entirely new car from zero but Tesla has kept it’s value until very recently. Why hold it?
I hear ads on the radio that polestar is giving 20k trade in for your Tesla. Idk their financing options so they might still be expensive, but I wouldn’t be surprised if other electric car makers will give similar incentive to switch brands.
Not who you asked, but I would happily give anyone the benefit of the doubt about having any sense of who Musk really is who bought their car before Musk bought twitter in 2023.
Destroying a random man’s tesla is not action. Action is going to your congress man’s door and showing them you mean business when you torch their car. Torching a random guy’s car (who’s probably left of center, given they’re driving electric) is counterproductive.
Really? Tesla seems to be pretty undesirable right now being targets for vandalism. Vandalism inspired by a majority shareholder practicing facism openly. Congress is doing nothing, it’s majority Republican, they will take no action against Trump. It’s a complete waste of time.
Again, if you still have a Tesla now, you are not center left. Everyone’s had the chance to trade it in prior to the stocks diving, right now it’s a conscious choice. It’s not “some poor, random citizen” it’s a Musk supporter. Full stop.
Furthermore, he’s Trump’s boyfriend, even got him to do a Tesla commercial on the Whitehouse lawn. Electric cars are for the right too now!
You assume so much of other’s people’s lives. It must be easy to live like that, huh? Is it so hard to imagine that other people live different lives and may not have had the ability or desire to trade it in? Too bad for them, I guess.
You can have your opinions, but attacking cars of people who are not involved in making decisions that matter is nonsensical and short-sighted at best.
Where’s the assumption? If you buy a luxury brand, you’re not struggling. Buying one of the first EVs is not a “I’m broke” decision the same as buying luxury shoes.
Your position is that in the last five or so years someone could have zero ability to trade in their brand new Tesla? Use common sense, I implore you. Obviously there are outliers but no, most people had the chance.
You argue like a Republican, with bad faith “some people might not fit your generalization!” nonsense. Support of fascism should be met with escalating resistance. We’ve had years to discuss it, yet here we are.
People can lose their jobs after buying something. People can stretch beyond their means to buy something.
Tesla is not a luxury brand by any stretch of the imagination.
brand new Tesla?
If it’s used it’s by definition not brand new lol. 5 years has not been recent enough to realize musk is a Nazi. Closer to around 2 more realistic. Maybe 1 even.
You argue like a Republican, with bad faith “some people might not fit your generalization!” nonsense.
That’s not a Republican argument.
Trading a car in is a big decision if you aren’t rich, especially if it’s your first newer car.

Finally! I’ve been saying this multiple times and I get a lot of hate for it. Tesla owners are dehumanised at a rapid speed. I laugh so hard about LedByDonkeys actions and other groups, but attacking Tesla owners isn’t the way. (And no I don’t have, ever had a Tesla)

I bought my tesla before I knew musk was a nazi. I cannot afford to just get rid of it. Anybody damaging my car is not helping the cause.

No one wants to buy one. Who will they trade with? What dealership is buying these for anything reasonable?

Ben Shaprio take
when was that?

Sell the Tesla cars for scraps? At least the disillusioned owners would get something.
Turn the car panels into pans. Something stainless steel is actually good for.
Boo hoo. Supporting a Nazi should be financial suicide. Unless the car is a 2015 or before, the emerald mine owners son has been a piece of shit.
“Vulnerable people” could never afford Teslas, even before everyone realized Elon was a douchebag.
