> mentioning his CEO and your perception about his ideology

It's not perception, it's reality: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/jan/20/trump-elo...

These guys like it: https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/elon-mus...

Musk is making a point of supporting far right parties internationally: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/jan/25/elon-musk...

And his far right views are not new: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/nov/16/elon-musk...

Musk is an attention seeking narcissist who has gone out of his way to make himself synonymous with the Tesla brand. When you buy Tesla you're now buying into Musk's far right politics.

He's done a lot of damage to the Tesla brand: https://insideevs.com/news/748520/model-y-social-media-junip...

If you don't want to be associated with Musk the simple solution is don't buy Tesla.

By such reasoning anything extremists like is extremist by association.

How does that make sense?

They correctly recognized it for what it was.

The brand damage is big this time. Teslas are now being called "swasticars".
