Not from what I can tell, maybe a little teeny bit but nothing meaningful

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 33 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That's what I'm thinking too. They only like him because of his bs on Twitter. Maybe they're the ones that bought the N64 Truck?

[–] cryptiod137@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Yeah, and even then a lot of them remember being browbeaten about his stuff and are still not fans.

Even worse there are some lefties I know who still defend him now for what he "did" back then

This is where I think capitalism might actually work by virtue of its own perversions. As the conscientious progressives abandon him, he's going to have to shill even harder to conservatives to try to tap into that market. If some asshole can get MAGAs to buy into renewables, I'm just going to sit back and let it happen.

Thanks I hate this, but you're absolutely right.

solar

Anon bought it

He's managed to sell some of the richest of them gaudy overpriced electric vehicles, but not enough to make an environmental impact and not for the right reasons.

They wouldn't touch Elon until they found out he was a bigoted fascist. Then they flocked to him. Conservatives are pure garbage.

[–] Ragnarok314159@sopuli.xyz 24 points 1 month ago (2 children)

And they still don’t buy his products.

Hey look at this!

I have something in common with pro Trump conservatives!

[–] Anti_Iridium@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

We have more in common than separates us!

[–] RestrictedAccount@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Exactly. For instance neither of us trust Musk enough to buy his products.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Smart people don't buy cybertrucks.

[–] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 58 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He sure lost a lot more liberal customers than he gained in conservative ones.

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I don't know, by the number of cyber trucks I'm seeing with don't tread on me license plates... I'm wondering if that's true.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

Cybertrucks are new and stand out appearance wise. Don't let visibility bias make you think they're doing well.

[–] Goun@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

Oh, no no, they're not required to put that "don't tread on me" plate, we already know they're all ancaps

Clown to clown communication

Eh. I live in a well off TN county and Teslas didn't show up outside of Nashville until he started going mask off.

So, the rural conservatives? No. The people conservative leadership actually cares about, yes.

[–] thedeadwalking4242@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

By being a bigot

I'll believe it when I see cyber trucks replace F150s.

[–] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Money.

Final answer.

Edit: 🤞just in case, but I’m pretty confident in my answer.
