I, for one, definitely won't be buying another Tesla as long as Naziboy Musk has anything to do with the company.

I mean they're also really shitty cars. As much as the muskrat as poisoned the image of the company, I think a lot of the loss and sales is due to other competitors having caught up and being higher quality.

You might want to actually look at one or test drive one

I agree. Many companies have shady practices but very few of them have CEOs that show their shitty character as open as Elon Musk. One important reason of buying an electric car instead of a ICE car is causing less harm / negative impact to the world. And people who make their buying decision based on that in many cases don't appreciate people constantly lying and promoting fachism. I personally won't buy a Tesla as long as he is involved.

I don't drive a Tesla because I have never liked Musk. Apart from that imo the only model that is somewhat good looking is the model S but still very overpriced for what you get.

Dude keeps surprising me with his stupid decisions. Can't imagine the shareholders are happy with his newest pro Trump thing, once again showing he is a huge narcissist.

Aren't they releasing quarterly numbers tommorow? I guess we will see what "all time high" means very soon.

Edit: Earnings release today after market clothes. Earnings call tommorow.

Note, they won't tell how many teslas they sold, but they will report how much their profit was.

Is that a real picture or AI?

It's a super super very real picture, bigly real, people are saying...

I mean people are, you know people are asking about the photo folks. Oh my god are they asking about the photo. Over and over, and people are saying folks, let me tell you. Nobody is asking about what’s going on in the White House right now. Nobody, is, asking.

Nobody wants to ask. You know why? You know what sleepy Joe and Kamala are doing in the White House? Right now? As I type this message on lemmy and with minimal effort trying to imitate Trump they are doing crazy things.

They are bringing insane asylums into the US. I don’t know what an asylum seeker is, but we’ll get to the bottom of it.

I hate that Fred still uses the Roman-numeral-ten site. I emailed him about it and didn’t get a response.
