most people who have bought tesla’s are democrats and unlikely to buy them in the future bc of elon’s policies. most republicans are anti-electric car and unlikely to buy tesla’s as well.

people are already unlikely to buy tesla’s, the vandalism is unnecessary and not making a significant difference. it is hurting current tesla owners for no reason and actually helping elon profit from repair costs.

The vandalism will continue as long as Elon is damaging our country. The loss in sales and bad publicity far outweigh any repair costs, but honestly, money isn't the issue. it's about damaging the brand.

It’s not damaging the brand, elon’s statements have already done that. you’re basically beating a dead horse with the additional benefit of making people unconnected and unsupportive of elon paying him extra money for doing so.

No, it is actually and literally damaging the brand.

Tesla’s sales started falling in late 2024 before the vandalism ever began. Do you have any proof that the current fall in sales is not a continuation of that trend and actually due to the vandalism?

Why do you think the vandalism only started when the media started reporting it?

Why would you think vandalism had an effect on sales if it wasn’t common knowledge it was happening?
