Its not 'forever ruined'. A percentage of buyers will have been put off.

I don't think you understand the sentiment in Europe. Supporting far right extremist parties while doing Nazi salutes makes you a pariah, irrecoverably.

Henry Ford used to put a copy of a book about the jewish banking conspiracy in each glove box, and VW were literally founded by Nazis.

Elon’s about that bad. Tesla can probably dig out of their hole in 50-80 years, assuming they survive that long.

"The stock market overvalues it, so it must be fine" is a hell of a take.

Yeah, those investors with real money on the line are a joke. To get the real scoop, we should listen to mostly-anonymous HN comment writers.
