My 75 year old father bought a Tesla last week. What is he marked with exactly?
For reference, see Chris Brown's continued musical success after domestic violence. Or people buying iPhones despite inhumane working conditions. Or Facebook/Insta users despite Cambridge Analytica et al. I mean, we just had a record breaking Superbowl despite the myriad of NFL scandals. The list goes on and on.
Most of us live in glass houses, I'd be careful about calling someone else "marked".
Just because someone can still make money after a scandal doesn't mean they weren't hurt. Johnny Depp lost a lot more but still probably wasn't close to poverty at his worst.
And yes, timing is key. Musk is a hot topic, so you'll see less "separation" as of now. Just be careful if you own one.
If you don't have an iPhone or Meta account or NFL pass (or ...) then you can complain without being a hypocrite. That's great.
Or you can say those things aren't as significant to you right now, so they don't compare. In which case, you'll surely realize that others may come to similar conclusions about Tesla. Say, valuing the lives of third world workers more than the political state of the US
