    The more proud nazis that buy swasticars the easier it is to figure out who NOT to do business with. More power to them!

      My kid’s tee ball coach has one he uses to advertise his construction business with. I have made it a point to not bring it up with him, because I get the feeling he’s a big Trump guy. We are in one of the bluest places on the planet. I’m amazed he hasn’t figured out it’s a business liability, not an asset to drive around in that stupid shit box. Even if there was no Elon propping up dictators in the US, it’s objectively a shitty truck that can’t do truck things, so if the guy I’ve contracted to do an addition shows up in a $100k truck that can’t haul anything it’s pretty clear that he’s not doing anything other than sitting back and counting money while his crew does all the work, and I’m overpaying to ensure he continues to have cybertruck buying money. Add to that the fact that Elon is propping up dictators in the US, and you are alienating in this area, probably 80% of your customer base by driving a car that is the embodiment of maga is just beyond stupid. I hope his business goes under.

        Where I live, the Harris signs outnumbered Trump signs by about 30:1. We had a contractor show up to bid on repainting our kitchen cabinets and he had a huge Trump 2024 flag mounted in the back of his truck and a “Fuck Your Feelings” sticker on the back window. My mom is the most good-natured person on the planet but she wouldn’t even let him in the house.

          Good on her. I’d have told him I’m not interested and if he said anything back, I’d say fuck your feelings and slam the door in his face.

        Maybe he is hoping support from the proud boys and militias will make up for the business from sane people that he drives away.
