Imagine starting your carreer with a publicly nazi dipshit, because he did. Fuck this guy.
I mean, people don't broadly care that much, at least not nearly as much as we hoped. If people were really principled, his fascist support and political involvement wouldn't have just tanked his whole company but landed him in front a prosecutor.
But the reality is he just had a slump in sales, which had as much to do with affordable and higher-quality competition as his dumb nazi salute and insufferable tweeting. The installation of nation-wide charging networks basically started the countdown to Tesla's demise.
He pushed and launched the first wide-scale, accessible electric car with any level of support and reliability but without actually innovating and continuing to listen to consumers, he was not able to keep up with people's buying choices and like with everything else in his entire, fetid life, he just stubbornly doubled-down and insisted that people want his janky-ass cars with their flawed touch screens and hidden door handles and death-trap engineering.
PSA: musk is a fascist and Nazi. Buying cars from Tesla directly supports him and thus all the terrible things he does. There are lots of much better electric cars if that’s what you want
Edit: I sure kicked a hornets nest saying maybe not buy from the fascist. To be clear: almost every car manufacturer has EVs now, multiple models. If you can’t find one of those that’s good deal and just have to buy Tesla, maybe you just really want a Tesla idk. If you want the ‘good deal’ I highly doubt Tesla really stacks up, but the best deal as always will be buying something used.
Not just buying.
Even if you had yours from the salute, or whatever, he’s still using your driving data to train their self driving softwares.
They’re still selling your data to whoever, too.

Great news, everyone! Turns out being a full fucking Nazi isn’t good for business.
Arm go up. Line go down. Womp Womp 
The best part of that incident was how so many people didn't think it was an attack, just "Yeah, that seems like something a cybertruck would do."
Honestly it was coin flip odds.
Odds were greatly in favor of it being normal cybertruck behavior.
Just a free clue to fElon - the problem is not the head of North America sales, LOL.
Sure. Let's fire the salesman. It's all his fault. Something smells musky here.
I was a huge fan of Tesla originally. I remember before the roadster, there was all this talk of open sourcing the platform so other manufacturers could build their own EVs.

Don't piss off your customers is Business 101, Elon, you genius.
Tesla needs to build an electric bus, to throw random execs under whenever Musk “pulls a Nazi.”
Yeah, it's HIS fault.
LOL "a journey of continuous evolution". Is that corpo-speak for a never-ending shit-show with a lying, capricious CEO?

It has nothing to do with the head of North American sales.
Tesla has manufacturing quality problems. I'd rather a Japanese or Korean EV.
Sadly i think this would be due to cheaper chinese companies competing? We got a shit load a cheap chinese electric cars on the market over here and you dont really see Teslas anymore
Probably not as this is talking about North America, where Chinese electric cars are still not widely available. It's most likely due to Elon, cyber truck, and US relations with Canada.
