Tesla has the #1 selling vehicle in the world for years. They have a weak quarter, just like BYD and others, and suddenly the entire leftist online world is eager to blame it on Elon. They salivate at the idea that every problem is his fault. Successes, of course, are never his fault.

You see the same treatment for anyone who is vocal and isn't leftist. They have even started to come after Joe Biden, likely the most progressive president in history.

People rush to share their anecdata on sites like this where they say, "I hate Musk so much I'd never buy a Tesla." The vast, vast majority of the world doesn't exist in online bubbles.

I say this as a liberal who has never voted right in my life so please don't label me as alt-right or nazi or whatever the current flavor is of "I don't agree with leftist Twitter posts.
