Maybe but I've not heard of a single person say they won't buy a Tesla because of Musk's antics. There may be a few but I'm going with minuscule, not a cliff dive.

Lot of nazi adjacent folks here in Australia, look at the rise and rise of ONP for example.

Attributing the rise of one nation to “Nazis” is even dumber than the conclusion that musks political opinion causes people to not buy teslas.

Well, I mean Pauline Hansons "there's not a single good Muslim" comment.. you know.. isn't that much of a stretch

Edit: mind you these comments were made on public broadcaster, concerns me what conversations are had behind closed doors.
