Big fan of Atrioc and this is one of his best videos. He has really insightful and thoughtful takes. But also does a great job of keeping things funny and interesting

I am just astounded that Tesla sells any cars at all at this point. I am convinced there's a class of Americans that just don't read any news at all and just see Teslas on the road and think they're neat. They just feel like Biden didn't lower prices so give Trump a try. They just coast through life and I'm unreasonably jealous

That’s possible, or just plain dismissing reality.

In the film Civil war, there is a violent, well, Civil war raging across the US and several characters says that their parents are living on a farm in Wisconsin or whatever, purposely ignoring what is happening in the country.

IRL, I’ve seen several American youtubers dismissing reality by saying "it will be finished in 4 years so we’ll just have to wait". Tons of people are saying they’re apolitical so they’ll just endure and wait for the shit show to end.

Ask Russians how well that goes.
They've been apolitically waiting for Putin's four years to end since 1999.

I'm pretty sure just maga is buying Teslas now.

I mean, I watched that whole clip and it pretty much looks like its Tesla mainly buying Teslas right now. As Atrioc said Maga are not fans of EV's.

Unless the us government itself decides to buy exclusively testlas, I just don't see the company doing well in the next coming years.

Well it was uncovered that there were plans in place for the governmental purchase of $400 million in "Armored Teslas" which Trump is busy trying to blame on Joe Biden and Musk is desperately telling everyone was a lie.

So yeah they're going to force the US government to purchase a few hundred million dollars worth of Cybertruck.

Getting Republicans to buy EVs just to own the libs is perfection 😄
