    Imagine you buy a car and it gets burned down because the owner of the car company turns out to be a Nazi.

    I would like Tesla to go bankrupt too but cheering on regular peoples property being destroyed is wrong.

      So many people on social media cheering for vandalizing other people’s private property just because they disagree with the politics of the maker of their cars. Wild.

              Premiums going up will hurt regular people more than Musk. Hurting your fellow countrymen is such a lefty thing to do…

                It will only hurt people who continue to own Teslas when they renew their insurance. They are part of the demographic supporting Musk, so fuckem.

                  Yeah conservatives were totally the largest market for EVs before Musk took the mask off, right? You people truly have not spent even a microsecond thinking this through.

                    What? This has nothing to do with politics of the consumer. YOU haven’t thought this through.

                    The point is to damage Musk. If you continue to use his products (rather than sell or scrap) then you are part of the problems.

                    This is true for cars, websites, AI, satellite connectivity etc.

      Hopefully they had bubble insurance and now they’re freed of their magamobile and can buy something better.

        Yeah because insurance companies are run by great people who are known for helping others.

        the magamobile… i know it has its issues, but the sad thing is, if you want an electric car as a person who does not care about car-people-things, the magamobile is one of the best options in terms of efficiency. ALSO in terms of used vehicles, you can get teslas so bloody cheap rn and for people who just want to get from A to B with Comfort and ease, you dont have so many other options.

      Totally agree and the fucker already got the money. They are just fucking other people’s lives. However, we can agree that if you think you’re buying a car that someone is going to burn down, then that’s a good deterrent to buy them. So I can also see the positive side of things. And all these cars are probably insured against vandalism anyway
