Remember when he told his advertisers to fuck off, and then two weeks later sued them because they fucked off? That's the depth of this man's genius!!!
And he lost the case obviously...
That does not prove he is not a genius!!! /s
It took awhile for that to get finished, but it was great to see.
You got to be a special kind of asshole if you’re buying a Tesla these days.
Their Q1 sales were actually up over last year. It's insane.
The same kind of pieces of shit that still use Twitter.

Not only that, you sort of have to hate having money.
With the cyber trucks having shit glued on them all over the place the company just seems laughable.
If I'm putting down (potentially) luxury car money I better damned well have a luxury car.

At this point i no longer care if they lower the price until they're free. They will have to sell them as scrap at a loss. I will never, ever, ever buy a Tesla.
At one point I was considering buying a Tesla. Then I didn't like Musk, but felt I could justify buying a used Tesla, as it wasn't giving him any money.
Then Nazi salute and DOGE and lol, nope. I won't even uber a Tesla.

Oh, don’t worry. He can just buy them from himself using taxpayer money via subsidies from his other company like he did last year. If you’re an American taxpayer, you’ve already bought one.

Elon couldn't pay me to buy a Tesla. I like EVs. It's not about the technology. It's entirely about Elon. I'd rather buy Japanese or South Korean, thank you.

Reading Tesla workers shared images from car cameras, including “scenes of intimacy” was enough to put me off Tesla. The build quality being garbage and Musk also being a garbage human being make the company just a complete waste of space.
It's funny how that wasn't really a problem until they found that bond underwater car in a garage recorded by a tesla and it belonged to nazi musk.
They're already sitting on them, they should finish the job and shove them right up their asses.
Hail Tesla model SS
I thought Tesla was going to start building robots, instead of cars.
/somewhat sarcastically
This is my stupid fucking friend who can’t get off Elons nuts at all. It’s fucking sad. He literally bought a model Y the other day despite me telling him Rivian is about to release a competitor because he thinks he can add it to the robo taxi fleet in a year or two. God I love him and am sick of this shit.
This anecdote provides insight to Tesla's remaining sales strategy. Like the stock itself, all there appears to be is hype and promise.

How did that happen? When I worked at the Fremont plant, we were only putting together vehicles that had already been sold. Did they swap from lean manufacturing to the normal, wasteful "just keep making shit perpetually" model? 🤔
They are cashing in production tax incentives and cooking the books. GM did the same thing 2008 before it all collapsed.
Elon was hoping everyone would just forget his antics.

Destroys them all because unprofitable to sell, whines about major loss, demands government bailout.
I figured something was up when I got a call out of the blue from the Tesla dealership asking if I wanted to upgrade my 2019 to a newer model. Joke's on them, though. I'm unemployed.
Thats after they got spacex to buy a large number of them.
From what Elon says to shareholders, Tesla is going to pivot to becoming a humanoid robot production company anyway, the cars are just a sideline. They axed two models when they announced that.

Anecdote:
I was recently browsing an auto listing app for a used EV as I'm thinking about switching to an EV from my ICE hatchback, and the market near me is absolutely flooded with Teslas, primary model 3s. And it's not just "old" ones either. Tons of 2020-2024 models as well.
there are people in the world who buy new car because their 2 year old one is already too old.

It seems like there's a market for a company that will buy Teslas ultra cheap, modifies them heavily, then rebadges them like Alpine does for Renault, AMG does / did for Mercedes, Abarth for Fiat, etc.
These days those are all subsidiaries of the main brand, and even before that they had a cooperative relationship with the main brand. But, I can imagine a setup where the main brand doesn't support or approve of what the modifier company does.
I suggest the rebadged name should be Antifa.
Even better, Tesla and all other Musk businesses should be forced into bankruptcy.

Hold the line 
Oopsy.. I want the Tesla batteries, so I can use it has my home battery.
When you've schucked the battery, can I have the drive units, electronic brake booster and airconditioning components?
I want to EV my whip pretty bad.
