I didn’t think they were defending it. The reality is some people live in a bubble and don’t pay close attention to the media, and switching cars is not exactly an easy thing to do without getting fucked over.
Many people are upside down on their car note, and when you trade in with negative equity on a car loan, that negative equity gets added to the new loan balance. It’s kind of a big deal for the average person.
Switching cars isnt easy but buying an expensive one made by a madman is?
Until relatively recently, if you were an American who wanted to buy an electric car and wanted to guarantee you wouldn't be stranded somewhere with a dead battery, Tesla was literally the only option.
I had all of those things and didnt buy one as many others. Crazy that when you buy a car from a nazi lunatic things dont work out
K live in your fantasy bubble and revise history all you want, not even a decade ago Teslas were considered very good cars, and the only viable electric option for some. Not hard to figure out why people bought them then, just like it's not hard to figure out why people are selling them now.
Considered by fucking who? lmao jesus christ, it's also not hard to figure out Elon has been a Nazi for a long while
Your weird attempts at gaslighting aren't working dude
Your weird attempt at labeling gaslighting sure as hell didn't work dude.
Even if you werent a Musk fanboy, Tesla cars have literally always been shit quality, this is well known. I remember videos from 2015 from brand new Teslas with massive cracks going down the length of the car.
But yeah Im gaslighting! Hahaha not the fucking Nazi madman scamming you all, what a joke.
Additionally, Tesla has and ALWAYS has been extremely anti-consumer and anti-repair, they do not give a fuck about you.
Dude, relax, you’re fighting with people that agree with you that Elon is a Nazi piece of shit. If a bunch of people that agree with you, more or less, are downvoting you and saying that your anger on this one is misplaced, maybe it’s time to look inward.
Let people realize they made a mistake, jeez. That’s all this is. People made an uninformed decision, and are now realizing their mistake. You never made a mistake before? Jfc
Im chill as Bob Dylan on penicillin. I simply have zero tolerance for Nazis or Nazi sympathizers. It's cool people realize they made a mistake, but they are simply realizing the extreme costs of supporting a Nazi.
