The disapproval of Elon Musk is the top reason Tesla Model 3 owners are selling their electric vehicles and going for another brand, according to a new survey of 5,000 Model 3 owners.

      Because he won’t shut up and makes it well known he’s the CEO of Tesla, so yeah I would be embarrassed to drive one of their cars because I’m not a fucking idiot like Elmo Musk.

      Tesla is not just selling cars; it’s also selling a lifestyle brand about green energy and pro-environment technology. That brand is being damaged by Elon, which its owners accurately perceive and don’t like. So… here we are.

      Virtue signalers. Weirdly that’s what people who bought it because of him were called so I honestly have no idea who to believe.

      Buy them, don’t buy them. No idea why this has to be such a big thing. He’s a bellend. So was jobs. So was Edison. So we’re most people you’ve heard of. That doesn’t mean the product isn’t good.

      At this point if you buy anything you’re ostensibly supporting some dick. You just have to pick your battles and at the moment I couldn’t give a crap what he says on twitter as I don’t use it and can’t wait for it and Facebook to be killed off. Doesn’t mean they make crap products no one about buy.

      Honestly, tribalism is the worst thing on Reddit and lemmy seems to be more and more infected each day
