They should scour military stockpiles for any left over ww2 explosives and use them to demolish all tesla factories and dealerships. Give those old material their final hurrah in taking down fascism.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Good. Destroy it!
Burn baby burn
Can't pretend I'd be sad to see them crash out completely, although it does make me feel a little uneasy for repairability of existing Teslas.
Nazi or no nazi, it isn't gonna be good for the planet to have a whole bunch of cars deemed irrepairable, although my guess is a buy out would stop that happening.
When the inevitable revolution is complete, Tesla needs to be socialized! People should really start talking about this and aiming for it seriously as a an end goal.
Tesla is manufactured locally and they've been heavily investing in building factories while all the other car makers went out. This is one of the things Tesla did right and why Elon was well loved by liberals, before he went all out as a Nazi.
And look the last thing I want to do right now is defend Elon's anything, and the Chinese EVs have really caught up, but Teslas are great EVs that are reliable but will be on the road and need service for decades to come.
Socialize and nationalize Tesla, it was built by the most talented American engineers and hard workers all for the profit of one Nazi and his family, let's fix that last bit.
Socialize Tesla. Take it back from the Nazi enemy of the state, give it back to the people who built it.
Teslas are great EVs
Are they though? I would never buy a Tesla, I would buy an Ioniq in a heartbeat though
Edit: this is not a criticism, I agree with your comment. Just a discussion. I would argue that Tesla is way behind on tech
I hate how reliant on touch screens they are. Ain’t for me, but many new cars are like that these days. Not a fan really.
It's a completely overvalued company. Other car companies have a much higher production rate, sell more cars, at a much better quality, and have more market share, yet don't "enjoy" the same kind of market valuation. In Germany, Teslas are on par with Dacia in terms of production quality, yet Dacia sells cars at a fraction of the cost of Tesla. In other words, it's a bubble. One way or another, it will burst, and if it takes the nazi boss in charge down with it, even better.
They need to calm down with that title. It's only been a few months. Unfortunately people forget way too easily.
I suspect Americans may forget, but maybe not Europeans given that him and Trump insulted their national pride. Same with Canadians.
I do hope Americans never forgive and never forget on this one.
What baffles is how completely overbought the stock is and how it refuses to collapse. There must be some big whales propping him up.
Europeans will forget.
Even if they do, Tesla is being unseated as the "default" electric car in the consumer mind, which will persist even if they forget why.
The only reason they may never come back is just how good BYD alternative models are. Tesla doesn't have the edge anymore, and it was coasting on brand loyalty and reputation.
Well, that reputation is a Seig Heil now.
On the flip side, titles line this will help people to not forget.
There's a pretty decent chance of major government action to support the company can be bought. Shit, musk may help build a very expensive situation for himself.
I don’t understand why their stock is still 51% higher than it was one year ago.
It went down significantly since the beginning of the year (~-25%) but less that it went high after November election (~+100%).
Because Tesla is a meme stock.
It's price has always been completely decoupled from the number cars they sell, and depends on musk constantly lying and promising fully working humanoid robots and self driving taxis by next year.
Because Tesla stock is essentially a meme stock and always has been. It’s not based on the actual boring making of cars, but rather the strength of musk’s bullshit powered reality distortion field.
There’s always some vaporware next big thing that he pitches, but never actually delivers on which is used to justify their ridiculous valuation.
It's going to fluctuate a lot on it's way down.
The people who bought it for a high price will also buy at lower prices to get a better average in total. These kinds purchases will increase the price for no other reason and self fulfill the option to sell the total at a slightly higher average than rock bottom. It's a (risky) way to cut the losses. Many people are probably still holding on to the overpriced stocks. With these things combined, existing investors can maintain an artificial high price. However, unless new investors start buying, it'll slowly but steadily lose value over time as existing investors manage to seep out.
If it lost 90% of its value, it'd still be overvalued
Fucking wonderful!!!
More of this please!!
"Drive" the value of the Swastikar into the fucking ground.
🤡 😂 🖕 🖕
Tesla is the poster child of companies that feel the wrath of people who oppose fascism. But this needs to happen to all the companies that kowtow to Trump and his regime, and there's a whole litany of them.
You can use this site to identify businesses that are 100% MAGA. It was made to help MAGA know where to shop, but it can tell rational people where not to shop.
Or simply for the rest of the world, boycott US products.
What baffles me is that conservatives usually don't believe in global warming and don't care about the environment so they are less likely to purchase an EV. So why is Musk courting them? Presumably he did a lot of damage to the brand. And it doesn't help either that the Cyberpunk is one giant flop, similar to Fiat Multipla.
Musk was courting democrats until he fell out with them over labour rights. I think his "republican phase" started due to pushing for less workers rights in the US, so that he can make cheaper cars.
That was obviously a long time ago, before X and DOGE, he's clearly in a delusional hate bubble at this point and expecting rationally explainable actions is unfortunately too big an ask.
Honestly hoping conservatives start buying EVs en mass to own the libs.
Most cannot afford them.
I think that was his strategy too, but he went way overboard -- full nazi even. I think he also took too many drugs and lost control.
Lol yeah for real, there's a chance Elon will finally do some good again by getting conservatives to buy EVs. Then maybe go to jail too.
hes hoping to get into the AI space like thiel with palintir, ive said it he largely abandoned "TESLA" already
To quote an old car show: Oh no! Anyway.
Tesla death spiral! Now do Elon!
Take it to Zero. This company has to go.
The SuperCharger network needs to be spun off into its own company. It’s one of the few positive things to come out of the company, especially now that the Tesla NACS plug/socket has become the SAE J3400 open standard and most EV manufacturers have announced support for it. It’s the only international EV fast charging network that can be seen as comparable to similar gas/petrol chains.
Their battery storage division that manufactures PowerWalls, MegaPacks, etc. should also be saved (perhaps spun off as well). Those are good quality home & grid-scale battery solutions.
Their cars, vaporware solar products, robots, etc. all deserve to go the way of the dodo as quickly as possible.
Anything that would see Muskrat profit should be boycotted and discarded.
He got what he deserved.
It is simply impossible for me to view the Tesla icon without it morphing into a swastika. Even if Elon and every board member is removed and all of their shares taken with no payout I would still never buy from them. The brand is irreversibly damaged.
A few more quarters of this, and the Tesla hype value will surely die.
Womp womp
no end in sight
Can it actually go below zero? I'm new at this.
Hypothetically another major recall could cause more cars to be returned than sold.
Good. Fuck that guy.
<Good.gif goes here>
How awesome. Less poorly built Nazi cars is always a good thing
So wonderful to see. I absolutely love watching EU do damage to Musk.
Oh no! Anyway..
