Europeans don't want to drive a Swasticar? Why? Did something happen to make them dislike Nazis for some reason?

Looks at my VW
*Erika intensifies*
At least the current vw CEO isn't openly a Nazi and they make good cars; unlike muskrat and his swasticars.

No one wants to drive a swasticar.
Well for obvious reasons. But also bcs their product is crap quality. My neighbour keeps on pouring grand after grand for stupid repairs into his model S
That can't be, teslas never break and don't need maintenance. Many people said it, smart people
Nearest repair center is 2 hours away
I'm not going to sell a perfectly useable Model Y after a year just because the CEO is a cunt. But I'm going to tell everyone that he's a cunt with 30 stickers plastered all over the useless rear window
Sell it to who, Ben? Fucking Aquaman?
Good choice, no point throwing it away if it was too late for you to realize, but it's more powerful as a platform to disavow Musk and Tesla.
The US is collapsing and all I got was this lousy car
Fair point. I won’t judge Tesla drivers. I’ll judge Tesla drivers that don’t have a load of stickers on their car.
I remember headlines of people burning their Nikes when they learned the company was woke or something. Burn your car mate, that'll show them for sure!

Elon Musk should have his wealth forcefully redistributed
Quick Elon, sue every EU citizen for not buying your car!
Well, I did Nazi that coming
I thought the Powerball and may even some solar stuff they were doing would suit our needs. The last few years quickly removed any such notion from my mind; not touching anything tied to that nazi manbaby
NAZCAR.
Swasticar.
The TSLA crash going to be glorious, can't wait.
The stock has been overinflated for years, it's a grift detached from reality.
The stock market is now literally just a rigged casino where 90%+ of the stocks are owned by the rich.
Tesla doesn't deserve to tarnish the great inventor's name. Elon more specifically. But who knows, possibly the company's management team are all mini Elons. The workers they are not at fault.
Workers are desperate for a union if anything they're the good guys too

Elon gonna start sueing the EU for not buying his cars
Sure am glad all the car companies decided to use the Tesla charger as the standard. /s
It's an open standard now, it doesn't really matter that Tesla was the first. So it's a good thing, kind of like iPhones switching to "Android charging cables".
As usual, in the end the workers will pay and the owner(s) will walk away slightly less incredibly wealthy.
May every business that brings this man profit tank until he learns some empathy.
Rich people don't have human emotions.
Being rich literally turns you into a sociopath or psycopath.
Hoarding that much excess wealth induces mental disorders.
The only solution is to redistribute their wealth

Doing a from-heart-to-sun salute tends to hurt sales in UK and Germany, who woulda thought. The stereotype about French is that they don't care and might even like it, but maybe this is also about build and design quality.
You may want to read the text before commenting nonsense, the French are not pleased either.
| Sales are crashing in France, Germany, and the UK [...] In France, sales of new Teslas fell by 63 percent
I don't see what justify your attack, it seems unnecessary to attack people based on their nationality.
Yes, we do have a far-right issue in France, but it's pretty much the same as everywhere else in Europe and there is still a resisting left here, not all hope is lost.
Also, regarding your comment below, the white flag stereotype for France comes from 2003, when the US and allies invaded and destroyed Irak, but for once France stood against the US imperialism.___

Good.
Their news cars are more expensive and more weird than the old ones, while the competition has been catching up, so it might be that, too...
Having competition tends to do that 🤷
