Congratulations Germany from America! Shun Tesla and buy German! 😊

[Netzjargon]

The number one reason Tesla's sales in Germany were significantly lower was Musk's political recommendation to vote for the AfD. The AfD is an extremely right-wing political party in Germany. Most Tesla drivers and electric car drivers in Germany are predominantly left-wing voters. And they don't buy from "Nazis"! Greetings from Germany

7:40 Germany is also a country sensitive to some specific types of salute and direct interventions by foreign billionaires in its political process.

THANK YOU EU FOR STANDING AGAINST A MONSTER YOU CANADIAN FRIENDS THANK YOU SO MUCH

[bigman]

Damaged brand image.

Once they lose market share, that shift can be permanent.

Other brands got an opportunity to capture market shares and increase produce and increase their market shares.

Time to boycott the swastikacar.

[Ottavio-gkgt]

European EV vehicles are welcome to sell in Canada

[Eric-Marsh]

I put Tesla on my stock ticker just for the satisfaction of watching it decline towards zero. I live in Europe.

[HAMBURGER-sl]

I think the new European EVs will be good.

[ericsouthward]

Who is going to buy an American made electric car when there’s BMWs and Mercedes available. Same as no one wants a gas car made in USA

[stopthelies]

The people united will never be defeated power will always be with the masses and not the few we allow this illusion

[Democracyrules]

Wouldn’t buy a Tesla if it was $1 I dropped Twitter when he bought it. Europeans should boycott Tesla as its owner is a political naysayer.

[grudtt]

We are many. Solidarity is our power ✌️💚

[kuziamjohn]

What he is going to understand is people hate what he represents and him.

[etphonehome.]

Being different is not the same as being insane. He's sliding down a slippery slope.

[GoVolatility]

Tesla is done. Their is no return for Elon M and Tesla. No one want to be associated with Elon M and his image and values

[joelwalter]

Maybe Elon should focus on South Africa market, his native home.

This is called power of the consumer. As a German I quite rigorously try to avoid to buy US products to demonstrate against actual US policies. A request to EUropean IT companies: we need an alternative to Microsoft

[alpho]

With a share price loss of 70% Tesla is near the end inn North America.

A MAGA voter took a vacation to Orlando was inside a church when he noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with a sign that read '$10, 000 per call and that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10, 000 he could talk to God. His next stop was in Atlanta . There, at a very large cathedral, he saw the same golden telephone with the same sign under it that read it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10, 000 he could talk to God. He then traveled to Indianapolis, Washington DC, Philadelphia, Boston and New York and in every church he saw the same golden telephone . . .with the same '$10, 000 per call' sign. The MAGA voter then visited Canada, and again, in the first church he entered, there was the same golden telephone, but this time the sign under it read '.40 cents per call'. The MAGA voter was surprised so he asked the priest about the sign. 'Father, I've traveled all over America and I've seen this same golden telephone in many churches. I'm told that it is a direct line to Heaven, but in the U.S. the price was $10, 000 per call. Why is it so cheap here?' The priest smiled and answered, 'You're in Canada now, son . . .it's a local call.' Elbows Up!!
