    Tesla looks to have weathered the sales slump cause by Elon Musk; second quarter sales in China & Europe of Teslas have risen by 25%.

    So people's objection to the Nazi have been tempered by the rises in fuel prices, which seems to suggest outrage has a relatively short half-life.... which is also not good news for people hoping the latest revelation about the Fascist Frog might seen the back of him - rather it suggests if he can get it all out of the way, he'll be back.

    @ChrisMayLA6 If you don't harness the outrage in the moment it dissipates into the background noise. Outrage doesn't let you own the discourse, and you're stuck fighting against instead of fighting for. You can only really win by fighting for something.

    Yeah, it’s a bit of a smart ass remark.

    I’d be fairly curious how Tesla has done relative to any other offerings available

    What I find interesting is the jump to electric when electricity generation isn't totally green? Unfortunately living where I do with some of the highest electricity prices in Europe this is personally a non starter. UK still reliant on natural gas for generation and we know where that got stuck during the war.
