Elon is getting slapped by the invisible hand.
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.

The brand is forever damaged. Sell while you can.
I feel bad for Nikola Tesla having his name associated with all this nonsense. Not even death let him escape from rich assholes taking credit for the work of others.
If it makes you feel any better his first name has fared just as poorly in terms of automakers lmao
I'm actually a big fan of Edison Motors, who are working to make heavy trucks into hybrids. And they're Canadian!

spacex and starlink need to be the next to go.
Space X should be nationalized
We did pay for it.
We're still giving Elon $80 million a day.
im in favor of any company these fuckers were on the board of or were allowed to hold substantial shares of being nationalized as punishment, if we don't end up with some form of communism or blasted wastelands after all this. The capital class needs to be shown consequences, and if we don't get guillotines, they need to at least be forced to watch us sautee their balls.
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.

I got you.
Www.stealmytesla.com
No need to be embarrassed anymore!
The customer service part... 😂
Our team will handle all the paperwork and finer details of filing insurance claims and police reports to provide you a smooth transition of ownership and plausible deniability.
That should be higher up on the page, since that'd be the primary value of that service.
It's also the point where it's blindingly obvious the site is a joke, so I do think it's best saved for last.

I’m so glad that I lost my job in 2016 and had to cancel my Tesla Model 3 reservation. When I eventually got a better paying job in 2017 I played it safe -assumed I could lose it at any moment- and bought a Chevrolet Spark which has served me well.
Yeap. Too late to sell now.
