Yesterday evening, Tesla reported first-quarter earnings for 2025, and they were abysmal: Profits dropped 71% from the same time last year.

Musk sounded bitter on the call with investors that followed, blaming the company’s misfortune on protesters who have raged at Tesla dealerships around the world over his role running DOGE and his ardent support of far-right politicians.

“The protests that you’ll see out there, they’re very organized. They’re paid for,” he said, without evidence.

    and 100% less naziism

    For whatever reason this sparked a whole bunch of nonsense in my brain like “100% nazi-free chicken!”

    And “should I drink skim milk or 2% Nazi milk?”

    or “buy the new German EV, it’s got 50% less nazi than our leading competitors!”

    Thanks for that brainwave

      That 50% that you built into the car, which half? Or do you grind it up into a paste and put in 50% by volume? Also, is it built into a specific part, or kind of spread throughout?
