Unfortunately, when people see you own a Tesla, they assume you are a fan of Musk.
I'm not, but that doesn't change what they think.
I have plenty of other reasons to get rid of the car anyway. This one is just a bonus.
- 4wsn 4y ago> Unfortunately, when people see you own a Tesla, they assume you are a fan of Musk. I see. Musk being an asshole attracts assholes who act like assholes towards you for your choice of car. I have to admit that would also be a factor in me wanting to sell a Tesla if I owned one.
- api 4y agoTesla is a public company. The board could fire him if they wanted and might if he further escalates his trolling.
- ineedasername 4y agoThat's might be very difficult. Musk may not own a majority but the corporate bylaws require a supermajority of shareholders to support any major changes, though I'm not sure if firing the CEO is covered by that. If it does, it would require roughly 75-80% of non-Musk shares to vote him out.

- powerbroker 4y agoStrange that this did not happen when a) Steve Jobs first left Apple; and b) after Tim Cook succeeded him. CEOs loose their mojo. When Elon fails to follow-through with taking Tesla private, and (seemingly) acquiring Twitter -- its a sign that he isn't thoroughly thinking through the weightiest of decisions.
- pstuart 4y agoWhen Jobs was ousted Apple was floundering an his departure was more drama than impactful. When he stepped down at the end he had a well running machine that could generally point in the right direction.
