My cousin and his wife bought a couple many years ago when they were all the rage. Before all this crap happened. I'm a bit scared for them. This will only redouble people's anger towards Teslas. (But it's well deserverd)

Boycott US

Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to get rid of citizen's united and implement independent district drawing and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

Don't worry, dumpy will divert federal funds to some other elon owned business under the guise of removing corruption and cronyism.
Most likely i'd say spacex/starlink related, since there are few that can compete in private space in terms of us companies right now. hundreds of billions can easily be sunk into anything aerospace related.
I work in the defense industry. Many of my coworkers are conservative. Most of them would never consider an electric vehicle (I heard them laughing about rolling coal on a Tesla recently). So the target audience doesn't want them, and the former audience is now staunchly opposed. Who do they think will buy them at this point?
Crypto bros.
This dudes tweets reminds of the loud speakers in North Korea blasting propaganda non stop.
Lmao on these whiny ass babies. Fuck Tesla, if people don't want to buy them, you can't stop them.
Soon to be added to government employment applications.....how many tesla do you own and if accepting the job, would you qualify for financing for a tesla?
His misuse of public office should be landing him a third impeachment. Why is any of this being ignored as the new normal?
Because the American people are cowards, and don't know how to stand up against this. Their inaction speaks volumes in its own way.
So wait…. Boycotts are illegal now? It’s mandatory to buy their trumpmobiles?
I like the idea that Trump is Musk's new car salesman. Oval Office/Tesla Headquarters.
Dude really made swasticars and fascists don't even buy it because they don't roll coal.
When you know the truth about Tesla, the term "Elon's baby" makes him sound the world first "car cuck".
This is just a car ad.
This is a car as for every car except Teslas. Maybe it's an ad for bikes too.
Right, so NOT buying a car is illegal now.
They'll let you buy something else, but first you'll need to watch a video on the benefits of owning a Tesla, watch an ultrasound of your new baby Tesla, and complete a 72 hour waiting period with mandatory daily calls with a DOGE sponsored automotive counselor.
“Illegally boycotting.”
Trump is hilarious. Like the government can stop me from NOT BUYING something.
Sounds like if he had it his way, we’d be forced to buy only what he declared and in the quantities the law stipulates, regardless of need or ability to pay.
Well obviously, it's time to for company stores to make a comeback.
Trump signs an executive order that every American must purchase a Tesla. Supreme Court rejects the order by a 5-4 vote several weeks later
"Rejects"? Oh, you optimist.
Excuse me sir, have you performed your government mandated consumption today? It looks like your spending quota is a little low, how about ordering some tasty Dominoes^TM and signing up for a subscription service or your choice? Remember what your mother taught you: "a penny saved is a penny wasted". Money atrophies if you keep it locked up, everyone knows that! You need to keep that cash aerated, circulate it!
I hate how possible this sounds. Like, alongside the other bullshit we’ve been exposed to, this nonsense sounds like it could be real.

it's like that time when Elon "free speech absolutist" Musk tried to sue advertisers that decided that they didn't want their ads on his Nazi filled platform
Remember, this South African immigrant, whose father owned a slave ran ~~diamond~~ (edit: emerald) mine, sued advertisers for pulling out due to his racist remarks and the racism being spewed on his platform. Choosing not to advertise on his platform was ‘collusion’ and illegal… 🤦♂️

Good grief, the President of the United States shilling for a Private Company. How pathetic.
I actually stopped buying their products.
No huge loss. Black beans are black beans.
I miss their cookies, but yeah it's been a several years boycott for me.
I'd forgotten about that one. Yeesh
Didn't he do a photo shoot for beans in the oval office or something like that?
Google says:
Yes! https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/donald-trump-goya-beans/
Yep, I'd forgotten about it.
I member the McDonald's banquet.
How do I do that thing where I place money on a stock losing value? I want in on this.
This is the shit that really bugs me with Trump in office again. He is the leader of the executive branch and just throws out statements saying boycotting is illegal.
His words should matter and the office should matter but it’s all just reality TV horseshit.
I’m sick of it.
"illegally and collusively boycott". Trump is such a turd of emotions. Just says things that feel true, and his idiot followers gobble it up. I don't think there's any case where a boycott is illegal, and colluding is just a scarier word for organizing or cooperating.
The only reason Trump knows what the word colluding means is because of his collusion with Russia.
colluding is just a scarier word for organizing or cooperating.
Makes sense when you remember that he doesn't want people cooperating, that's communism ~/s~ . He wants people obeying.

TIL it's illegal to not buy a Tesla.
In a show of support for Elon Musk, a truly great ~~South African~~ American
I wonder how his "rolling coal" idiot followers are going to love getting a tesla to pwn the libs.

It is working. Keep boycotting US everyone!
(Americans we still love most of you as individuals, its just .. the threats and backstabbing by your leader is a bit much)
Totally understand. Keep the boycotts running. We'll keep doing what we can from here. This isn't just about the US, it never was. Until we bury ALL the fascists, it's gonna be a little hectic around this 3rd stone from the Sun. Stay strong, perseverance furthers.

Here it is without all the adjectives telling you what to think or how to feel:
To conservatives, Republicans [redacted]; elon musk is "putting it on the line" and the liberals are boycotting tesla (paraphrasing). [Redacted] In any event. I'm going to buy a brand new tesla tomorrow morning as a show of my confidence and support for Elon Musk [redacted]
Of course, the guy knows the word "collusively":
secretly acting together for a fraudulent or illegal purpose
It's like the word was made for him...
