“Electric car buyers don’t like right-wing politics”? Actually I think it’s that electric car buyers don’t like Nazis.

How to spot a fascist:
This is what they will drive:
Someone who owns an older Tesla model is probably someone who regrets their purcharse today. But someone who shows up in a 2025 Tesla knew exactly who they gave their money to.
Make of that what you will. Me, I reckon it's worth learning your Teslas because people truly are what they drive in this particular instance. There's no doubt about these particular year / models.
Are these all AI generated?
That's not what the Y or the S look like. Also the cybertruck doesn't have door handles.
tesla.com. Do your research. Takes 10 seconds.
Edit: and for what it's worth, outside of the Plaid Model S that has a slightly wider wheelbase, the Model S hasn't changed appearance since 2017 or so, and the Model X has looked the same since launch in 2016 afaik.
They are all so fucking ugly. Why can't this guy sign off on a good looking car?! I'm not even being bias, I really think they look either boring, or like a literal dumpster.
Don't exclude. There are definitely some self important people driving older Teslas, too. A lot of previous BMW drivers made the switch years ago for image reasons.
The cyber trucks never disappoint in making me laugh. I will miss that guaranteed amusement.
I think you mean the IncEl Camino.
Every time we're out and I see one I make a point to call them swasticars out loud.
Swasticar. Nice.
I'm poor af and couldn't even afford a good second hand car at the moment. Last month I spent a bunch of money and a lot of time at a mate who has a car lift to fix up my car. The costs to get it fixed at a garage would have been triple and it wouldn't pass MOT if I didn't fix it.
But I'll be sure not to buy any Teslas
ok
