I see every comment is some version of “everything is caused by elon doing or not doing something”, and I wonder if people care this much about other car manufacturers and their decision makers. This is just a curious thought-out-loud, I have no stake in political dumpster fires

That being said, being far out as politically as I am (for my own peace), I think it’s elon’s own doing, offering manufacturing support updates online and his car manufacturing company’s customer complaints being too online and journalists with unusually strong political beliefs covering it with new and ‘hot’ headlines day to day (like it’s news!)

I wonder if someone have data of customer complaints from german and chinese car manufacturers (EV or otherwise) and why we don’t see that a lot in news (or at all, are they perpetual frictionless motion machines?!)

It’s also funny people have to bring up Elon’s politics and use it as a cover to justify their own arguments of his illegitimacy and inability to lead a company he built (for most part), have these people ever looked at political affiliations of all industrialists or top executives of major companies? they generally tend to skew more conservative naturally (at least elon craps on people of all political directions he find funny at any given moment)
