We’ve known for years that the owner is a lying, creepy, out of touch dipshit and that it’s a very flawed car and the company will cut costs to save money on safety items, every time.

Electric vehicles with drive assist are awesome and are the future, but there are alternatives, especially if you have money, which a lot of Tesla customers do. And they’re not particularly well built; how many of these do you think will be on the road 20 years from now? And now we’ve seen how Elaine runs their companies, why the hell would anybody put their trust in their products?

If you’ve bought a Tesla in the last five or so years, you’re a damn goober in my eyes. That’s my hot take, prepared for being called poor and other sodium, tear filled comments from fools whose opinions don’t matter. You are the hardcore, foaming at the mouth Segway fan from the 2000s, have at me lol.

Update: The teary eyed, sweaty fingered responses to this are predictably hilarious. I’ve been called a guy that eats 4 pizzas a week in another old thread because of this, a cunt, a tool, a douche, a couple people spent their energy to tell me they don’t understand me spending my energy posting this, some people are telling me something about Tesla or Elaine living in my head rent free. All genuinely pathetic responses, so GG lol. Cheers.

    People didn’t bother to run onto the deck of the Titanic because marketing told them the ship was unsinkable. Some realized it was going to sink only when they’ve seen from a boat the bridge submerging.

    You can bet some people died because moron spelled with “el” told them they are driving on autopilot.

      I don’t think that Titanic is a good example. Being inside a ship is disorienting, you don’t see the horizon and it’s always moving. You need to be told to evacuate by people who understand the situation and know what is happening.

      Driving a car and not slowing down when you are supposed to doesn’t really compare to that.
