Are you sure that it's a left wing backlash? It just seems like a backlash. Musk has managed to piss off everyone.

Far_Addition1210 2025-09-14 09:35

Correct, I cant imagine a lot of people in that rally liking him very much.

Didn’t you get the memo? Nowadays if you don’t agree with the far right, then you’re left wing.

Substantial-Rise1662 2025-09-14 10:42

Musk can fuck right off!

Substantial-Rise1662 2025-09-14 10:43

'It seems that in your anger, you killed Tesla' - Darth SIdious to Musk

Substantial-Rise1662 2025-09-14 10:50

The far-right make Thatcher look like a Liberal Democrat and John Major a far-left individual.

He just can’t help it. He’s the richest guy in the world, but he’s still so bored af that only the prospective of a civil/culture war keeps him up. His “I’m staying out of politics” phase just lasted 3 months.

"Left-Wing" backlash, huh? Radical liberals and their crazy stance against racism and fascists. /s

[deleted] 2025-09-14 11:29

It’s not “left wing” it’s everyone hates Musk, but he’s too obtuse to realize that fact.

i_love_pencils 2025-09-14 11:49

He’s united the world! Give that man the Nobel Peace Prize!

Sorry to be a pedant, but this is reddit,  Elmo is 2nd richest at the moment, Larry Ellison of Oracle is currently more wealthy.

habfranco 2025-09-14 12:17

It's been on and off during the last days though

Far_Addition1210 2025-09-14 12:17

Surely some of the shareholders and investment trusts must look at his politics and the effects it has on the geo-markets where Tesla wants to do business, and realise he is not good for sales.

Xerxero 2025-09-14 12:28

Left wing? Everyone hates him.

gwenver 2025-09-14 12:46

Radical left even.

gwenver 2025-09-14 12:47

And then they look at the share price and just shrug.

beren12 2025-09-14 12:56

Nuh—uh. His mommy said everyone loves him.

South-Play-2866 2025-09-14 13:22

This is exactly what the stock needs to break $400 Nice

Apart_Expert_5551 2025-09-14 14:09

Musk just called the Left wing the party of murder. Musk hates the majority of his cusotmers.

Grunge4U 2025-09-14 14:55

Americans have such short memories. Everything Musk has done to this country is still causing harm and that harm is increasing daily yet given very little time Musk's crimes against humanity will be a faded memory to most Americans. Musk has caused more damage to the U.S. than any other country and we should be leading in the Tesla Takedown but Europe puts us to shame.

The recent tesla stock action has been crazy, I wonder what will happen on Monday

habfranco 2025-09-14 15:46

more crazy stuff I guess. My guess is that a lot of stock holders were selling covered calls, and they were most probably assigned with that huge spike. So the question is: will they buy the stock again? And will the other side of assignment hold the stock?

You seem to be the one who's not paying attention. Tesla cars are still declining in sales for the 7th straight month in California which is their biggest market. Tesla is shitting the bed everywhere.

Grunge4U 2025-09-14 17:23

I'm aware of where California sits and all the U.S. which was down 12% through the first half of the year but saw a 3% increase for August due to the tax credits ending. They'll probably be up again in the U.S. for September and then nosedive for all of q4. It's a good thing to see Tesla sales down in the U.S. but this still pales by the sales decline in most European countries. Tesla should be down 50%+ in the U.S.

LLMprophet 2025-09-14 17:31

Europe sells very few actual Teslas compared to the US. Percentagewise it looks impressive to you but in terms of actual cars, Tesla is shitting the bed in the US and Canada, especially considering EVs are up overall. Combine that with a deleted EV credit and there's more pain incoming for Tesla.

Eastern_Guess8854 2025-09-14 18:45

Showroom for what? Cars he can’t sell and robots that are mostly hype and behind the competition…I’m all for him wasting money but this was probably the smart choice given his popularity

pacific_beach 2025-09-14 21:46

This cost reduction plan of ceasing the car production/sales division is going to be amazing for the overall business. 4D chess move, sir!

m0nk_3y_gw 2025-09-14 21:57

Larry was richer for half a day. In the past few days Oracle has dropped from $343 to $291, while TSLA blasted off from $346 to $395

cantusethatname 2025-09-14 22:41

Musk hates all of his customers but for different reasons. I suspect that about 15% of owners are unhappy with the product quality, 80% are unhappy over the FSD debacle. Non-owners probably skew very strongly against his meddling in their affairs regardless of their party affiliation, enough so to refuse to fund further meddling.

wenchanger 2025-09-15 01:41

elon promoting violence - I wonder if he's secretly building these humanoid robots to help fight in the UK civil war he's calling for

That-Whereas3367 2025-09-15 09:29

His wealth is all an illusion based on nonsense valuations and ignoring his debts. His real worth is *negative.*

Oh please do it - make that room!! I'm sure they love to have a BBQ inside \^\^
