Tesla (Cannon) isn’t a family friendly brand name anymore…
Please have a discussion for it’s replacement name!
I suggest Zappy Cannon!

CULTURE beats branding

You can call it what ever you like.
Call it Keith if you want.
Yeah but Musk is a Nazi and this is now, not some out dated “culture”
Change the damn name so it isn’t Tesla cannon please.
Do better.
He 100% is. His 14 flag post was the nail in the coffin to confirm that one.
But this isn’t it.
Just boycott his “Tesla” brand.
I think you should go with WINTON!

and since when is musk your master to decide that a word is his? honestly, not giving it that much importance.
just like most people say “twitter”, we’ll use “tesla” to refer to a scientific principle. it’s not exactly a normalized name like “jeep”.
and for those who have already a tesla… some nice “I bought this tesla before musk went crazy” stickers.

huh - you’re just as delusional as he is.
please refrain from further commenting, you’re only embarrassing yourself
said the one who started a topic about what tesla means today. 
Im not following popular media that much. When, where, how did Elon Musk become a National Socialist?
He was always a super capitalist wanting to go for space industrialization and become the first trillionare… or what the hell did I miss?
Edit: The Brand Tesla was not founded by Elon Musk, it was founded by Martin Eberhard (Jewish), Marc Tarpenning. The name was picked in tribute to the discredited but revolutionary Serbian Nikola Tesla (family of eastern Orthodox believe, btw). You guys are connecting lines where there arent even dots. Elon Musk founded PayPal or the origins of it by introducing paying by email, etc,etc… You guys are misinformed and spreading it like a venereal disease.
you don’t understand the original post.
You don’t read. lol
He always was one, as were his family. He just kept quiet about it because he needed to build an image.
At the end of the days, he’s never had friends, isn’t actually that smart. He just wants to be liked.
But, now with the people he’s cozied up to he feels empowered to just be him. He’s done the salute, subtly pushed the fourteen words and discussed some troubling nationalist and isolationist theories.
Yeah, musk is just someone who buys in and trys to curry favour with his new toy. Usually when he opens his mouth he shows that he doesn’t actually know what he’s talking about. Just look at his twitter posts to see that in action.
He does send cheap(er) rockets into space though. So sooner or later he will get that trillionare title, right? Solar system being cradle of the untapped resources and all. Next step is semi orbital tug ships, “I heard”. There is also research going on, on quantum entangled carbon fullerenes for interstellar communication.
I dont know twitter, I dont use social media. Thats why I am asking.
So we dont like this dude now, alright. Not that I could afford a Tesla anyway.
The company he’s a majority shareholder in does yeah. Literally none of it is his work or idea. He’s just the useful public face.
He’s very good a promoting himself. I will give him that.
His current work with the US social security stuff shows that he 1, has no understanding of the data In front of him and 2, deliberately trying to stir hatred and division.
My reasons for not buying a Tesla have nothing to do with him. They are poorly built tat that’s a walking environmental disaster.
If you want an eco car. But an old second hand car.
I was hoping we were past the cancel culture. I guess I was wrong…
Zappy Canon is hilarious tho
Cancel culture was never a thing. Just a construct created by those who felt they were “cancelled” when in fact they were rightly punished/deplatformed/shunned for their actions.
That is your opinion. I think many would disagree with you including those ‘cancelled’.
They almost certainly would. They are the ones that created the idea of cancel culture to deflect responsibility from their actions.
