How fucking dumb are these asshats? Calling boycotts of a shitty product which is first amendment protected activity, illegal? Super dumb Promising to make even more of these cars when his company already struggles to sell them and they sit in lots collecting dust for years? Then promising that these cars will either be self driving or they wont drive at all, which is his way of saying he will finally succeed in delivering FSD after over a half a decade of continuously failed promises to deliver, in his own extremely moronic grasp of the english language.

This is nothing more than a fucking dumpster fire fueled with weapons grade plutonium levels of stupidity.

    20 years ago, if you had told me GWB was using the White House lawn to sell cars, I would’ve thought that was a little on the nose. Too stupid even for Dubya. But here we are. How long before Trump and Musk start ending their speeches with “smash that like and subscribe for 10% off RAID: Shadow Legends”?

    He is fucked… I may be an old fart but I heard my 18 yo son almost pissing his pants laughing with his friends at what a loser Musk is

    If the younger gen soon to buy cars would be ashamed to be seen in a tesla, there will be no saving this brand

    Its a transparent play to try to boost the stock price, as with turning the White House into a car showroom was.

    I honestly cannot think of anybody dumber than Elon right now as his core market for Tesla are the very ones hes pissing off with his behavior.

    Much of his personal wealth and collateral he is on the hook for, is tied up in Tesla shares. Its one of the reasons he wanted that insane pay package from Tesla.

    Compare to Bezos who has been unloading his shares, something like $13bn last 12 months? He sticks a fair amount into Blue Origin but nothing like Musk spent on Twitter.

    My good sir, I think you’ll actually find they sit in lots and set on fire.

      Which is a shame. That insurance payout is more than zero, and reducing the supply makes them look more in demand.

    Is…is Musk imitating Trump’s awkward front-leaning posture, or is the camera just angled that way?

    Anyway let him waste money filling storage facilities. Hopefully hurricanes or tornadoes will destroy a bunch of them shortly.

    It doesnt matter. The parade must go on. They will produce whatever they want, however they want. Before a a sea of oligarchs the American King did decree their power would not just be preserved but thrive. Their schemes work to unravel ownership as we speak and sequester it to them alone. The only voice and power we have is that which we were born with. I suggest we band together to make use of it before they figure out how to turn all of us into eejits, not just the guillable.

      The are just so delusional. How many of these Cyberstuck dumpster fire swasticars are collecting dust already? Tesla has to write in a clause saying that buyers aren’t allowed to sell the vehicle for 2 years and a large number of owners are already desperate to break that agreement. Its nice to see tesla stock value plummet but it’s unfortunately not enough. Also shows how disgusting and delusional musk and people like him are. Crying crocodile tears because hes lost some of the unrealized wealth of his assets even though he still has hundreds of billions. Meanwhile reddit is deleting comments criticizing these fascists and calling for a revolution while ignoring content that praises violence towards women, lgbtq people, leftists and leftist aligning subsections of the population. Ive never been more disgusted by the society we live in and I was pretty damn disgusted already in the last 2 decades. Now it seems the only progress made is in the opposite direction.
