Not privileged at all. I’m being slowly terminated from my government job, and have plenty of financial issues that are/will result. I’m also in no way advocating violence against anyone. I’m simply in favor of raking Tesla over the coals using the power of protest and purse.
Don’t take a financial bath. Fine. That’s your decision. If it were me, I’d go further into debt because driving a Nazi billionaire’s symbol around town is a nonstarter for me. My principles matter more.
To each their own, I guess. You’re the one that has to live with your decision.

… And selling a used Tesla does that how? Tesla sells new cars, remember? They made their money from that car already, it’s too fucking late.
NGL, personally, if I had a Tesla I’d sell it because I don’t want that image, but I’d be under no illusion that it hurt Tesla in any way. The only thing that changes is now some other dork is driving my old used Tesla around, except this new owner presumably has no shame about driving a Tesla or they wouldn’t have bought it.
The only way I can think of to hurt Tesla as a used Tesla owner is to attack their reputation by continuing to drive it but slap on one of those “I bought this before Elon went crazy” bumper stickers, all while constantly complaining about the car to scare people out of buying a new one. I don’t judge people for wanting to buy a Tesla in 2015. Selling it just guarantees that the next owner will be the type of person who wants to buy a Tesla in 2025, who I will totally judge. Financially, Tesla doesn’t care which of these people owns the used, out-of-warrany car, but in matters of image, which do you think musk would rather have behind the wheel?
