It will do fine. You are comparing a faceless corp to a cult of personality. The presence of a Tesla store in South Burlington won't likely change anyone's opinion of Tesla as a business.

How is Tesla a faceless corp? Of all the major corps out there, Tesla def had a familiar musky face. Moreso than FB even.

You missed the "...to a cult of personality" part. Tesla is quite the opposite of a faceless corp, which enables haters to target the individual at the top, rather than the company as a whole.

I enjoy watching leftist not know what to do with themselves. It’s comical to watch you all purge those who aren’t “pure” enough. We are killing the planet, right? So EVs are good, right? But the ceo of Tesla likes free speech, which is bad, correct? So Tesla must be bad because the ceo is bad, even though they produce EVs which are good. Do I have that about right?

35, so miss me with the boomer meme. Nobody is forced to work there, can’t speak to quality because I’ve not owned one. What else you got?

Edit: to add; Tesla jobs are competitive, and their vehicles sell en masse. So it appears the markets don’t agree with your evaluation.

Edit2: well done! You’ve decided you can’t handle decent to your opinion, unsupported as it might be. So you’ve decided to block my ability to respond to your response.

Well, okay. The following is my response to your response (that I was unable to post as a response, because you didn’t want to hear an antithetical opinion).

There you go again, calling me “boomer”. I just now told you I’m 35 years old, that puts me dead in the center of the “millennial” generation. Are you deficient in reading comprehension, or just obstinate?

If you’re going to make accusations about illegal activities, let’s have some sources showing violations of the laws respective to the jurisdictions under which the infractions were committed.

You don’t get to say “I don’t like this, so it must be illegal”, that’s not how the world works.

Tesla has been linked to several human rights violations in recent years in the Chinese plant and the cobalt mining operation in the Congo. I get you think Elon is some great conservative memer but the jobs aren't "competitive" they are slave labor. Done replying to you boomer have a good night

Reminds me of all the Steve Jobs haters during the “think different” cult era. Lol. So many people swear to never buy an apple product because they got rid of xyz port, use proprietary this and that, couldn’t stand the ceo, etc.. it’s the same thing with tesla, and it won’t matter. The company will continue to grow just like Apple did because they have the best overall product experience.
