Good of him to notice, the campaign seems to be working then. Thus carry on and continue demonstrating and boycotting people.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Could it also be that TSLA still has a grossly inflated price at 100x forward earnings. What has it done in the last few years to deserve such a multiple? Make statements about self driving coming tomorrow, hire actors to dance in a robot helmet, and sell trucks with the doors falling off?
Hell, the price is still higher than right before Trump got elected this past November .
Nah, it’s just cAnCeL cUlTuRe
Elon has likely pumped his stock price using call options. It shouldn't be worth anything near what it is.

I cannot hope for traditional justice for this man so I will resign myself to waiting for a ketamine overdose.
This seems like the worst way for him to go because 100% his "fans", if you want to call them that, will say it was the deep state that killed him for getting to close to their operations. They will try to get Trump to double down on his cuts to the government and it will make things worse somehow.
Really no matter how he goes it will be due to the deep state unless he Luigi's himself
Deep state but not the Trump one I guess?
wow they don't call him genius for nothing. truly a master of deciphering the subtlety of flashing neon signs.
fucking troglodyte.
Lol this guy is apparently also trying to 'go after' people who talk bad about Tesla. Get a grip homie, the people have a right to think whatever they want about whatever company that want. What's he going to do? Arrest people who post negatively about Tesla? And the guy claims he's such a pro-freedom man. Hilarious except it's tragic enough to just be sad.
These mfs are all free speech absolutists when it is THEIR speech only.
He's just a guy grown up in apartheid South Africa who wants to call people slurs
Not enough people realise this fact. It's not Free Speech. It's Freeze Peach, which is defined as only allowing adoration for the cult.
What's he going to do? Arrest people who post negatively about Tesla?
Uh, yeah. That's exactly what they're going to do. Trump is already calling Tesla demonstrators terrorists and pushing for charges in that area for simple vandals.
Yes. Was there a question in there?
It'd help if you could believe a word that comes out of his mouth.
If that was the only issue. Wouldn't the right (which they claim is a majority) just buy Tesla at this price point?
Yeah the propor methods to protest him should be to not vote for him... or vote to recall him... er... oh yeah that's right, he's got all this power and yet only is on the side line throwing money at a guy, and people he thinks will vote for a guy. So the only recourse he's left us is to go after the money he has to throw.
Money is speech apparently.
He's exactly right, because the broken system allows him to wield government power with the public having no other way to hold him accountable.
Ahhh so he does perceive us commoners
...when we get in the way of his dream of total power and control.
We must keep it up then
Wait. Is that man wearing a cheese hat? Why is that man wearing a cheese hat?
Wisconsin
I’m not an American. What does that have to do with anything?
Wisconsin has a lot of dairy farmers, and produces a lot of cheese. So much so that their football team's fans wear those cheese hats and are often called "cheeseheads"
Wild. Okay, thanks for the context.
Also I've been seeing in the news that he's trying to buy an election in Wisconsin. He's giving people $1 million to vote for the person he wants, or something like that idk.
Well, if it pains him: good, continue.
Aw look at that little hamster wheel turning... He's started to understand, but very, very slowly
Yeah, that is what is happening, thanks for noticing. How is this brainless fuckstick the richest man in the world?
Yes. Problem?
Aw, it's too bad that empathy is the downfall of Western Civilization, because I have none left for him.
Yes, exactly.
