        Why did you never want a Tesla? They definitely seemed like the cars of the future.

          The drivetrain is definitely one of the best for BEVs, but personally I’ve always hated the big touchscreen that Tesla insists on (and others have been copying)

      I came really close to buying an S years ago. It’s the tech that makes it for me. Performance, sure, but I’d take a self-driving Eames lounge in a heartbeat.

      What turned me off was the quality vs price. At that point, Elon has yet to fail so publicly at delivering on the tech. I knew I could pay less for a higher quality German car which would also have a more comfortable ride. As more and more came out about Tesla and Elon, I can only continue to appreciate my choice back then.

    Hmm…

    • This post was made by @gsa377, moderator of the Drama community on shitjustworks.
    • @gsa32 is a moderator of the new Elon fan community being “complained” about here, as well as the lemmy.world and lemm.ee Drama communities.

    Coincidence? I THINK NOT! Wake up sheeple etc.

    Anyway, someone should probably report this post, since it’s just a promotion attempt for the Elon community (or more likely for the various Drama communities).

    Doesn’t Elon have enough to do being CEO of 3 companies? Why is he making posts about himself on Lemmy.

      As far as I can tell, he thinks that being CEO means posting on the Internet 200 times per day. I’m assuming that his board of directors lets him do it since it’s less damaging than having him involved in the actual management of the company.

    Everything about this seems like a troll account/community, even the name of the community is a play off of 45’s cult subreddit. I would say don’t feed them/him/it, block it and move on.

      We allowed the drama community so far. Even with the “landlord lover” shit which is just ragebait. Now this one is created obviously for the same reasons. Allowed the kids to have some fun and whatnot. But calling people “schizo” is a no-no. This was also the user that tried to stirr up the drama with Hexbear by telling others to “take their meds” which was then used against Lemmy World because we “allowed ableism”.

      I will ban gsa’s account for a week. And we will think what will be done with the drama community. Now you have your drama 🙄

      We have four mods already, I’m moving the rest of the community over from our facebook group but I have high hopes for this place.

      Hope we’ll change your mind about Elon. He actually does have a good heart, even if your politics keeps you from seeing it.

        My dislike for Mr. Musk is not based on his politics, but rather his malignant narcissistic behavior. He’s a fraud and a con man.

          Are SpaceX, Starlink, Tesla, PayPal, OpenAI… frauds?

          Do you know well enough to diagnose him a “malignant narcissist” or are you just consuming too much political media that paints him as evil?

            A company that only exists on government subsidies and it’s spin off, a company he bought and installed himself as “founder” of, a company that his company was acquired by and quickly sunsetted, and a company he’s trying to compete with? Yeah, I’d say he’s a fraud.

                What kind of literal baby brain logic is this. “You don’t think Elon should have the power he does so therefore he’s allowed to take his ball and go home” lmao.

                  What do you mean by fraudulent? That the company is a scam, or he shouldn’t have power? I don’t think you know what “fraud” means.

            You forgot the hyperloop Tesla tunnel, the boring company, and probably a few other failed business ventures. Yes he is a narcissist and you’re his ‘yes’ man. Observe his behavior. I dare you to defend his lack of empathy.

            What does the word capitalist mean to you? What makes you label yourself as such? Your comments are so far removed from reality that I must question your sincerity
