I don't even drive one and it's second-hand embarrassing seeing people make cheap jabs like this.

Come on, this is in your bio:

Do you see the irony?
Of course the biggest virtue signalers are going to leave Twitter and look for other places to virtue signal.
I'll grant that right wing virtue signaling is more likely to be encountered in the physical world (e.g. the ubiquitous flag waving from the back of a pickup truck), but there's not exactly a shortage of it on Twitter either.
Unlike the left wing virtue signalers who say things like "abolish the police", but in reality do actually want to be able to call the police when someone is trying to break into their house.
I don't think it makes me a moron to recognize that Tesla has attracted a disproportionate number of enthusiasts who believe so strongly in the company and it's technology that they'll do dumb shit like turn on AP and then go to the back seat of the car. If you get into any kind of serious discussion, it doesn't take long to meet these people.
Besides, I wasn't insulting everyone who has a Tesla. I called out the fans specifically. Tesla has sold millions of cars, at this point most are not driven by fans.
