I tend to look at the license plate, as in the uk it tells you how old the car is.
For instance MS21 ABC or MS61 ABC would be a car sold in the first half of 2021 or the second half of 2021, respectively. Also, the first two letters say where it was sold.
So based on the age I can see if it’s a purchase after it was well known Elon was a douche or that they have poor quality control or even before everybody else caught up. Then I’ll judge them. For older ones, I’m more lenient.
I know people with Tesla's and they don't care about musk. They don't follow American politics, or are they subbed to him on his platforms. It's a popular and expensive EV, so it's great to flex on the poors. When someone gets one, people will fawn over it. That's just the reality.
I get this, but also it's stupid when you realize many of those drivers purchased before Elon's foray into far right bullshit. For a long time elon leaned left (barely) and those buying teslas were investing in alternates motivated by things like climate/fossil fuel usage
What are they supposed to do, simply buy a new car lest they be considered an automatic asshole? Judge the Cyberstuck morons sure, but judging anyone with a Tesla isn't great
Now with that being said, I also judge Tesla drivers lol
Elon pretended to lean left. He was and never has been left leaning. He's been the same old guy this entire time it's just continuing to be more and more difficult to pretend otherwise.
