    I bought a Tesla (not a cybertruck, gross) awhile back when fElon was in his “crazy but not obviously supporting Trump or a Nazi” phase. Now we’re leaving the US because of his and Trump’s bullshit, but we still need a car in the meantime. Moving is going to be so fucking expensive that we can’t justify selling it, buying another car, then selling that car, so I’m just driving it in shame and dreading being harassed over it.

      may I kindly suggest just putting a piece of electrical tape over the T insignia or perhaps an easily removable vinyl sticker indicating you don’t support Nazis?

      it’s not your fault your car was made by a company owned by a Nazi… but people are understandably pretty fucking upset to have a Nazi running the country. caveat emptor.

        Of course you may, but it’s already done! I have the infamous “I bought this before we knew Elon was crazy” sticker. The car just feels tainted now.
