Lol, Cybercucks getting what they deserve. Don't drive a swasticar if you don't want consequences. It was Tesla, this time. Next time, it could just be a citizen looking to enact a bit of justice.

Inb4 douchebags defending their Tesla because they bought it "before Elon was crazy". Your lack of awareness does not excuse your bad choices. Sell your Tesla.

Selling your Tesla is an odd take. To whom are condoning the purchase of a Tesla?

Just one more reason not to buy a Tesla ever.

And honestly, any of those cars that can be remotely deactivated. I'm shopping now, and I really don't like all the tracking in cars these days...

Be a shame if a truck on the side of the road containing highly volatile lithium ion suddenly got a bit hot

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 10 points 1 week ago (2 children)

These guys are tender.

We talk trash on european cars since ever. Brands and models alike. Nobody cares. And getting a car that was paid for blocked because someone feels the brand is being hurt would trigger a shit storm.

When are you guys going to push Tesla to the bin?

This is both extremely alarming and extremely funny.

Theft.

Remotely deactivated? Fucking hell...

[–] Damage@feddit.it 9 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Seems like a huge shot in the foot for Tesla, I mean, that's on character for Elon nowadays, but still, are we sure this is true and not some publicity stunt for this rapper guy?

I would set it to fire

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 week ago

It’s not fair to call Elon “it.” You should have more respect for objects.

[–] PhAzE@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I thought this was proven to be fake along with the video the guy posted.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago (7 children)

They have the actual C & D letter in the pic and there are numerous articles about it. I think it's on you to prove it's not real at this point.
