    Everyone gets what you’re saying. It’s not a difficult concept. What they’re trying to tell you is that the symbolism is more important than the value of some cars. The symbolism is destroying an entire company. The Tesla car brand is likely permanently toxic. He’s the richest man in the world. Do you honestly think people think that destroying some cars will bankrupt him? He can afford an entire navy. They’re saying that taking away sources of wealth (mostly inflated) will hit him where it hurts. In his fragile man baby ego.

      The symbolism is destroying an entire company.

      Musk doing multiple Nazi salutes on national television at CPAC did more, his rampant cuts of the government did more to hurt Tesla’s image.

      Especially because those are the big reason for protests…

      Like, what you’re doing is saying the reason people don’t like a convicted murderer is they were convicted.

      That is them facing consequences.

      The protests are a consequence not a cause.

      Do you honestly think people think that destroying some cars will bankrupt him?

      I have tried explaining multiple times how that makes him money…

      How would something that makes someone money ever bankrupt them?

      That’s a rhetorical question, I’m not wasting anymore time on unproductive things
