fun fact: the people who originally coined the phrase 'invisible hand of the market' called it 'the invisible hand of providence' which basically means 'gods inscrutable will'. capitalism-at least market capitalism-is literally a religion.
and its god is smiting his favorite special boy. so sad.

Who knew that being a publicly facing cunt makes people not want to buy your product. Shocking discovery.
These people literally live in reaffirming social bubbles they have created. On and offline both. They don't see that they are overplaying their hand.
This article should bring you joy.

Carvana bought mine at a decent price. I imagine the coming glut will have them refusing to buy Teslas outright. Other enraged Tesla owners should unload theirs asap.

For its part, Tesla has been trying to boost its image with the help of President Trump. On Monday, the president took to the South Lawn of the White House to promote Tesla's cars, apparently buying one despite having campaigned on an explicitly anti-electric vehicle platform.
Somehow, I don't think MAGA cult will buy electric vehicles in quantities needed to offset even a fraction of people who used to buy Tesla.

spacex and starlink need to be the next to go.
Space X should be nationalized
I know this the unpopular opinion at the moment, but what electric sedan is better than a model 3? The rest of the producers have all decided we want to drive crossovers or boxes and simply cannot figure out how to make a frunk.

Saw a Tesla today that someone stuck an old Rover badge on, cracked me up
Same people proudly claiming the market is self regulating shocked when the market responds to them being openly fascist cunts.

Yeah, that's part of the problem, Elon.
