You can't claim to be an empathetic champion of the poor and be a huge supporter of Tesla.

I don't have a problem with Teslas as far as cars go, but you can't claim to be a champion of the poor, and also support this multi billion dollar company owned by a billionaire that builds multi million dollar cars. Especially when he builds a huge GIGAFACTORY right in the middle of a poor town, pollutes the shit out of it, and gentrifies the whole area to build shopping centers and restaurants meant for the thousands of people working at said factory.<br><br>You can't claim to care about the environment, and be a huge supporter of Tesla. their factories are polluting the fuck out of poor towns and the production of each car releases a shitton of emissions into the atmosphere. Plus, you have to get rid of your old car to buy a new Tesla, which obviously also increases emissions through the processes of recycling an old car, and producing a new one.<br><br>You can't claim to be a champion of the poor, and support this hypercapitalist billionaire when there are a million other smaller car manufacturers you could be supporting instead of feeding his ego and wealth.
