Oh, I get it now. Bad taste was the whole point. Anyone who buys one of these is clearly an idiot and more likely to accept stupid shit like this, so they try shit like this first and then resolve the cases that make the news and get paid by the ones who just accept it.

Don't underestimate the power of marketing. Plenty of smart people are insulated, deluded, and gaslit into believing incredibly stupid shit.

Tesla has marketing? I thought Elon bragged how they never advertise.
