    just grow a pair and ban twitter, spacex, starlink, and tesla from operating in europe already.

    there’s no good reason to let them operate.

      Tesla is getting a buttload of cash from the EU soon in climate compensation (also Volvo but not so much).

      They’re mostly all national security threats, especially with Elon and Putin having a special relationship.

        I mean AfD is also pro-russia AND have neo-nazi’s in its ranks.

        They are at 20% in polls just before the german election.

        I don’t think many people have as many issues as they should have with russia or they just don’t care.

          Have you never been to small and poor /s countries like Germany where this sometimes is the best option for getting internet access? /srs

                I think it was the statement that Germany is a “small and poor country” that they were whaaaating about.

                  They used that as sarcasm to highlight that Germany has no excuse for having shit infrastructure due to their wealth and economy size, unlike other countries.

      ok so people who already have teslas should be fucked? if they will be forced to stop operation, some service offerings will not be available. nice

      a car isnt a political statement for everybody, for some people its a fucking tool

      edit: modifying software of cars in general is highly regulated. so banning tesla would create issues for people having those cars, i would love to “homebrew” them but hey, thats fucking illegal
