People don't have to interact with Elon when buying a Tesla. They do have to interact with dealers when buying another car. It's not surprising so many people chose Tesla.

They would be putting him back on the cross
Tesla production is growing year over year rapidly. If they want to sell higher volume they have to have lower prices. If they didn't want to sell higher volume, they wouldn't be expanding production so much.
Not a educated criticism but ok
Look I get it but some of these people going to work for free are just screwing over everyone else who wants to get paid for their value. Also it leads to corruption in that the mods of places find a way to get paid anyways.
The resale value is plummeting because Tesla is cutting prices because their goal is to become a larger auto manufacturer. Tesla took advantage of COVID just like everyone else to extract money from suckers. Those suckers are crying that Tesla is hurting their resale when Tesla does not give a fuck about their resale. They have a history of lowering prices to drive volume That isn't some secret plan. There are more new buyers to be had than satisfy the people who bought overpriced cars in an expanding market.
Also what evs are people cross shopping for better range per dollar. It is well documented Teslas are still among the most efficient evs.
That being said I own a Tesla because it drives itself.most places. I would rather live in a place with better public transit access to the service calls I have and not own a car at all.
As much as I think musk is an asshole he did put his money where his mouth is in Tesla which notably almost went bankrupt twice. The reality is that Elon distaste matters orders of magnitude less to buyers than value. I mean people hate Walmart and yet they make a ton of money. Other manufacturers cannot make profitable cars at the price point Tesla is offering. Tesla is going to end up the largest car manufacturer in the world. On Twitter yeah he is running it into the ground arguably on purpose but on Tesla and space x he is doing pretty good. I don't understand what people taking this angle think the founder would have done better. The founder would have just gone bankrupt with Tesla or sold to someone else.
I would also add that people don't deal with Elon when buying a Tesla, but they do have to deal with shitty dealers when buying another brand.
Most people are just going to buy the car that is the best value with the least effort.
Strange new worlds is better
Tesla actually only values the fsd unlock at about 3k based on their used car pricing.
...hey Joseph. Yeah. You know how we never have sex? YEAH! Well an angel came to me and I'm pregnant. JESUS CHRIST! Oh you already know about it!
I have to imagine the only people who are still working there are just trying to stay in America.
