On TeslaTakedown.com, citizens are planning protests at Tesla
locations across the country (and world) in hopes of tying negative
sentiment about CEO Elon Musk's DOGE activities to the company's stock
price.

In the U.K., where Musk has argued that the prime minister should be
jailed and America should "liberate" the British people from their
"tyrannical" government, one survey found that 60% of likely EV buyers
no longer want a Tesla because of Musk's politics. In Germany, Musk's
support for the far-right Alternative for Germany party, and the fact
that he appeared to use a Nazi salute during Trump's inauguration,
presumably contributed to a 59% drop in year-over-year sales in
January. Tesla sales also fell in France, Sweden, and Norway last
month. Some Tesla owners, both in Europe and the U.S., are either
selling their cars or adding apology bumper stickers.

It is very unwise as a business man, to play politics. If you enjoy that, become a politician instead.
The fact that business is business and caters to all customers, is what makes it good and honest.
I do business with anyone I accept as a customers. I've even done business with a homo once. I also turn down customers who only care about price. They tend to be too much trouble to make it worth my time.
