Just because someone owns a Tesla doesn’t mean they’re bootlicking or some kind of Nazi sympathizer. And I’m sick and tired of social media frothing at the mouth for any excuse for violence.
Jesus. It’s a car! Cars are major investments. I don’t own a Tesla, but if it was Henry Ford Jr. doing this instead of Musk, you can bet your ass I wouldn’t be bending to the whims of the bloodthirsty mob to sell the car I’ve had for close to a decade because they demand it as a purity test or else I’m a target for vandalism.
FUCK THAT, AND FUCK THEM!
I can’t afford a new car right now. I don’t want a new car right now; I like the one I have. My ownership of this car is in no way an endorsement of the Ford Motor Company, Henry Ford Jr, or any of their board members nor their actions, personal behavior, etc. It’s just a car, I like it, it’s paid for, it gets good mileage, and isn’t a smartphone on wheels.
Replace “Ford Motor Company” with “Tesla” and it’s the same thing.
Its a little different. That pos ford has been dead awhile, and the company has been no more awful than any other car company since then. Lol maybe even a little less awful than some.
Meanwhile the shitbox at tesla is still there, and has bought his way into american government on a much bigger scale than our normal owner class. And is also going full fucking hateful fascist. At least the people who owned us before pretended we were getting better and gave us a step forward for the two back.
Yes, I do find the joke funny. No I dont want working people having there cars vandalized, whether they bought it to save the world or because they where propagandized. These tactics should applied to unsold teslas on the lots.
But comparing CONTINUED or active support of tesla, to ford or german car companies, is wrong.

I’m doing no such thing.

The point was that in 2017 when I bought this car (which is an analogy for a Tesla), Musk was just another eccentric shithead not unlike most other CEOs. “Henry Ford Jr” is a placeholder for whoever the fuck is in charge of Ford these days, not the literal man himself.
So if Henry Ford Jr (remember: he’s a stand in for the current CEO) went full mask off, the argument from the mob is that I should have had a crystal ball to foresee that all the way back in 2017 AND that I should always have enough money to throw out and replace a MAJOR INVESTMENT, on a whim, just in case the CEO of the company that made it starts doing Nazi things at some undetermined time in the future. And if I can’t afford to do that, then the mob calls me a Nazi sympathizer, bootlicker, and deems me a valid target for vandalism.
Can you see how goddamned illogical and insane that is?
Man I’m just impressed you stopped huffing Elon’s Nazi farts long enough to type that all out, that must have been a really emotional moment for you.
Hot people fight fascists, I don’t make the rules.
If you own a Tesla, sell it, buy a superior car for less money, the Nazi company gets own owned, you have a better ride, and no one has to scratch their keys. Everyone wins.
Looks like I had one of my comments, querying the mods, deleted too. That’s pretty sucky tbh and doesn’t encourage me for the future of Lemmy as a free speech platform. Apparently calling out a deleted comment is being uncivil…
Edit: LOL it was my comment preceding yours… The generic message from the mods doesn’t actually tell you which message got deleted.
Yeah, but we can all see the model logs and what you both are actually saying.
Pretending that this is about “calling out a deleted comment” and ignoring the part where you insulted the mod is being disingenuous.
Sucks to suck I guess, market conditions change, time to get a car not built by a nazi and actively acting as a rolling surveillance system for a nazi?
Sure, but not everybody is rich to the point of changing cars like they change clothes. Most Tesla owners are underwater on their loans. Selling a Tesla requires giving the car away and bringing extra money to pay off the loan.
I guess they’re suggesting to sell the car for cheap to conservatives. Let conservatives get a car for cheap, while losing thousands of dollars. At least you get to make a statement.
Remember, a lot of those Tesla owners are democrats who believe in cutting fossil fuels and bought their cars before Elon went full Nazi.
Cybertruck owners have no excuse though.
Thank you!

Mods are censoring??? Don’t tell me we are redditing already. I was just answering this guys comment and it disappeared…
There are civility rules for most communities on lemmy. It helps to keep the discussion from erupting into slap fights.
Write me a check and cover my payments, or STFU.
No but I’ll sacrifice my pristine keys to teach you an important lesson about how huffing Nazi farts comes with consequences, like you deserve.
…and again. Censored as I responded. Seems I’m in sync with a rabid, over enthusiatic Elon fart sniffing mod…
Elon dming lemmy.world mods now, or do they hope to curry favor with the oligarchs in advance?
Maybe lemmy.world will be the next reddit :)

Already is.
Imagine turning to violence against innocent people, members of your own party, just because you lost an election LMAO 🤣
Of course you think it’s violence because you think stuff is more valuable than actual human life.
Conclusion: musk farts cause brain damage.

You own a Ford?

That is probably true, except as it relates to NEW Telsa owners, and Cybertruck owners. Those cunts can go eat ass.
And sell the Tesla to…?
I guess they’re suggesting to sell the car for cheap to conservatives. Let conservatives get a car for cheap, while losing thousands of dollars. At least you get to make a statement.
Yes, help the conservatives. A novel approach.
I’m sure everyone who can easily throw away 40+ thousand dollars has already done so and is probably more than willing to tell you about it.
I also have never owned a car and don’t know how buying one works.
And who is going to pay for that new vehicle?
