    Whoa now. Some people bought their teslas an indeterminate period of time ago and are now afraid that people will look down on them for it or they’ll have to file an insurance claim. And even putting a “I bought this before he went crazy” bumper sticker on the back to show ANY form of solidarity is a personal attack on them.

    And that is obviously the real issue. Not the people who chose happiness and transitioned to their actual gender identity and are now afraid that they’ll be violently assaulted for it. Or immigrants who are afraid they’ll have their visas or permanent residencies revoked and get deported to a random country. Or, you know, anyone who cares about any of those issues and are worried that the rest of the planet will hold them accountable for the horrific crimes coming out of our government.

    But nah. This shit is the real issue. Gotta protect those purchases. Protesting is good so long as it doesn’t impact anyone who matters. And this is the kind of shit where people will complain that it is a waste of government resources and how it only serves to protect musk’s interests. All while they quietly are happy because it makes them feel safe and snuggly.

      Let’s be real here. If Elmo weren’t the first lady, no one in the government would give a shit (granted no one would bother Teslas either). This is pure cronyism at its finest.
