    This is why I love Reddit and broader social media! Tesla puts in something about resale to prevent scalpers and all of the internet has a conniption about how you don’t own the car if that’s the case and how it’s an idiotic policy by Elon.

    Now because it’s gm who did absolutely nothing about scalpers (not to mention dealer mark ups) it’s fuck scalpers. Gotta love Elon Derangement Syndrome.

      all of the internet

      You can’t get all of the internet to agree even that breathing oxygen is a good idea, and you claim that somehow everybody agreed on a contentious issue like this? I remember when it was announced, there was a heated discussion here in r/electricvehicles , with several people for and against.

      It’s not logically inconsistent to think scalpers are the scum of society but still not like having restrictions on what you can do with your own property.

      You can also like the antiscalping provision while still thinking Elon Musk is racist narcissistic nazi.

        Ok but that’s not what most of them believe. Those people usually want laws against scalping.

        Anti scalping is not on the list of why I dislike Elon. The end of your comment is though. People who make it their mission to defend Elon are so weird. He’d call you a pedo in a heartbeat if he bothered you notice you exist. Let him defend himself.

          IMO, people who make it their mission to defend him and people who make it their mission to hate on everything Tesla just because he’s CEO are both weird. Both types of people seem to have an obsession with Elon.
