    Elmo was visibly A Problem well before launching this drug-fueled mockery of engineering. It sounds silly for like five minutes after learning about it. Then you see one in person and it’s just… eugh. Who buys this shit? Who buys this shit in spite of the aggressively public figurehead being a fucking Nazi?

      Yup. I have pity for owners of Tesla from pre-2018. There were some pretty problematic things before that, but that year, with his violations of SEC orders to not do security fraud, and his heavy projection onto that hero who saved the kids in the cave, is the last time they could have any benefit of the doubt.
