Support CleanTechnica's work through a Substack subscription or on Stripe. Or support our Kickstarter campaign! I recently looked into Tesla’s January sales in 12 European markets, and the results were not pretty. Overall, across those 12 markets, Tesla’s sales were down 23%. However, one reader pointed out that it could ... [continued]
I took a tour of their factory in the mid-2010s because a friend worked there in their training and development department, he was in charge of everyone who wrote assembly guides/processes.
He told me they’ve always operated at a loss and relied on “shifty Elon” and that he’d never buy one but the money was great working there.
Nowadays I see so many incompetent Asian and Indian buffoons driving around the Bay Area in their Teslas, supporting this shit company and its wannabe Nazi CEO.
No, the sentence is missing a comma. The incompetent driver part is the factual point of the observation. The casual mentioning of Asian and Indian is the racist part.
I love how you go straight to crying racism when it’s not that in the slightest. It’s simple math and factual information. Poor driving in those cultures is exceedingly common.
They do not often come from countries where there are proper traffic laws or where people actually obey whatever traffic laws there may be. They just go where they want when they want and good luck to you if you’re in the way. Go look at videos of driving in those countries and prove me wrong.
Where I live and work the population is 75+% Asian and Indian and they are the ones driving the overwhelming majority of the Teslas and literally asleep at the wheel or watching a movie or don’t care whatsoever who or what is around them on the road. They look at you like you’re crazy when you called them out on something terribly unsafe that they did on the road next to you in front of you or otherwise near you. They look at you like you’re crazy when you try to let them know that they don’t have any working brake lights - This is my favorite one I see all the time.
There are weekly or more than once per week posts on local subreddits and elsewhere about terrible driving here.
Nothing racist about it or me, it’s just facts. Those two videos I linked show you just a tiny sample of the nonsense we see here. Get off your goddamn high horse and don’t call me a racist.
I co-coach a little league team with Asian and Indian dads, work with many smart Asian and Indian people, I have nothing personally against these people, I’m just stating pure facts as it pertains to driving and Tesla ownership in this area.
Tesla is a scam and money laundering operation.

You can tell someone is incompetent because they’re Asian or Indian?.. Holy racism Batman!

Review my response above and get back to me when you come to your senses.
No racism involved here. Just facts.

Not sorry if you can’t handle that.
