Musk has been acting nazi for quite some time.
I think most people weren't fully aware until recently. You had to be active online or actually look for information to see it was more than just rich billionaire syndrome. We all live in bubbles and some people didn't get to hear about all the details with the 2019 pedo submarine incident Nowadays it would be very difficult to argue you didn't know but bought a Tesla because it's in your face.
For context, the model S was first sold in 2012, the model x in 2015, model 3 in 2017 and Y in 2020.
So the model 3 was released when he was a Trump advisor, and the Y when he openly started spreading conspiracy theories non stop.
As for the "we didn't know" excuse it's as bullshit now has it was in 1945.
The holocaust didn't start with gas chambers, it started more than 10 years before with people ignoring evil because it was convenient for them.
For context, the comment the one above replied to originally said "gassing Jews" instead of "holocaust denial"
my guy is up and down this thread trying to move goalposts talking about what about amazon and gassing the jews. trying to whatabout anything he can to defend Tesla. "Porsche exists!" yea is the porsche ceo hitting the "roman" salute and I missed it? what a clown
people buying the cybertruck are fully aware of Elons behaviour, they buy it to stroke thier own egos. ive seen an increase in newer regular teslas being driven around, i think some people are ignorant to his politics.
Yup. People are acting like this is something that just happened in January.
My first educational experience regarding how fucked Musk is was when he randomly called a Thai rescue worker a pedophile in 2018. And it was relatively high profile news. I saw a post on Reddit about a year ago asking when Elon went crazy and most comments agreed the first highly public instance was the Thai cave event.
So I've spent the last 7 years seeing more and more Teslas on the road knowing this guy was a grade-A fucking asshole that these drivers were enriching. And people are acting like his assholery is some new thing.
My car was made in the 90s.
Not as openly. Yoy would have really looked into his background to know what kind of person he was and even then he had not gone full nazi.
