New data has revealed a sharp reversal in Tesla’s fortunes in Queensland, with the slump attributed to a combination of market saturation and political fallout.
Even that late is being pretty generous. Anyone paying attention could have picked it up much earlier, but yeah, that was probably his first fairly public display of what he’s really like.
Yeah, his direction was already obvious by then if you were paying attention, with his abuse of Twitter to defraud investors, or his Hyperloop bullshit to stall public transport investment. But sticking his arse where it wasn’t wanted, reacting like a complete manbaby when called out for his attention-seeking, projecting hard onto the actual hero, hiring someone to stalk said hero and try to dig up dirt, and finally perjuring himself in court to avoid losing a defamation lawsuit…that’s an absolute final straw. Supporting him after that is inexcusable.
Even the Paypal stuff way before that was a clear indication of what he was like when you look back on it. That wasn’t widely known at the time, though. My awakening was with the ‘Elon Musk Is Not Your Friend’ video from Some More News.

There’s the issue. We can’t expect every EV driver to have been paying attention to the politics of it’s manufacturer at the time of purchase.
