I feel bad for the minority of owners who may have bought before Musk was so obviously shitty. I didn't really think of him as anything more than the usual tech ceo until the "calling a rescue diver a pedo" thing.
And I mean it's likely a very small minority, but I think a more focused protest would be artistically altering cars on sales lots, or on factory lots. Obviously a lot harder to do, so like, any tesla over no tesla? But I'd prioritize the newer models, and ones that tesla still owns or will likely have to pay to reimburse, gets you the bonus of costing them more money outside stocks/sales.
It's absolutely not a "small" minority at all, a large batch of buyers were progressives who wanted to step in a direction for a more environmentally responsible means of travel where there isn't sufficient public transport. I know quite a few personally and they hate owning it but financially, they can't just get rid of it. They've also completely stop using the self-driving after some scary swerves

A reminder here since people get the two confused all the time, and don't understand just how little Autopilot does. Full Self Driving and Autopilot are and always have been different things. They do not use the same software stack. Autopilot hasnt really been updated since FSD started being tested outside Tesla employees, so 5+ years now. 95%+ of Tesla vehicles do not have FSD, but nearly all of them have Autopilot.
Autopilot is just Traffic Aware Cruise Control and Automatic Lane Keeping. AP is not smart, and never has been, it does not make driving decisions, it just tries to keep you in the lines and a minimum distance from cars in front of you at a set speed. There are a shit ton of vehicles on the road that do this now, spanning all the way from luxury brands down to a plain old Honda, and they have for years.
Not to take away from your clarification, but the Tesla lane assist (not fsd) is WAY different from standard lane assist. It really does try to self drive. I have a 2024 Honda with LKAS and it makes minor corrections that keep you in the lane. Teslas will do strong corrections that can be dangerous, I've been in plenty and experienced it
Musk has been a twat for years guys and insufferable moron and always has been
The general populace was blinded by the media for a long time though.
If you never bought products from a company run by an insufferable moron, you would be forced to buy directly from your neighbors for everything in your life. And even then there's always an insufferable moron nearby.
