how in the fuck is boycotting illegal?
There is no boycott.
I don’t buy a Teslas because I don’t want a Tesla, but if it was somehow possible to illegally boycott Tesla, then I would totally not buy a Tesla illegally.
“illegally and collusively boycott”. Trump is such a turd of emotions. Just says things that feel true, and his idiot followers gobble it up. I don’t think there’s any case where a boycott is illegal, and colluding is just a scarier word for organizing or cooperating.
I wonder whatever happened with Musk’s claims that companies not advertising on Xitter was illegal collusion.
A quick Qwant search later: it seems he’s expanded the suit: https://www.npr.org/2025/02/01/nx-s1-5283271/elon-musk-lawsuit-advertisers-boycott-new
Unfortunately, his abuse has already SLAPPed down the original group behind the assessment that led to the boycott, but now that the world’s bestest genius evar has decided to also take on (check article) Lego, Nestlé, Tyson Foods, Abbott Laboratories, Colgate-Palmolive, Pinterest and Shell International?
Hopefully, he’s bitten off more than he can chew.
“A turd of emotions” is such a keeper.
Do you bother to research anything before running your mouth? You’re literally on a community about boycotts

That was an extremely aggressive response. Did you consider, “Hey, you don’t seem to know this, but check out this [source]”?
There’s a trope for “existing users are hostile to newcomers because the newcomers are ignorant, preventing the community from growing and undermining their goals”, but I’m not sure the name of it. Might be a variation of “For me it was tuesday”
Do you bother to research your own links before being extremely toxic?
What relevance does your half baked screenshot have to do with this conversation?
It’s such a very small leap to imagine the next post being “he’s one of the greatest Americans we have, almost as great as me, so why should he be punished for where he was born? RACIST!? Musk/Vance 2028!”
So just so we’re clear here. It’s completely fine for F’elon Musk to manufacture the cars in fascist America, but also countries such as Germany and China. Totally fine.
But it’s NOT ok for other car companies to produce and manufacture their cars in countries that aren’t the USA?
Hypocritical much there you rancid old
snakeoilcar salesman?Fuck Trump and a super bigly Fuck You to Elon.
“Illegally boycotting.”
Trump is hilarious. Like the government can stop me from NOT BUYING something.
Sounds like if he had it his way, we’d be forced to buy only what he declared and in the quantities the law stipulates, regardless of need or ability to pay.
it’s like that time when Elon “free speech absolutist” Musk tried to sue advertisers that decided that they didn’t want their ads on his Nazi filled platform
Excuse me sir, have you performed your government mandated consumption today? It looks like your spending quota is a little low, how about ordering some tasty Dominoes^TM and signing up for a subscription service or your choice? Remember what your mother taught you: “a penny saved is a penny wasted”. Money atrophies if you keep it locked up, everyone knows that! You need to keep that cash aerated, circulate it!
I hate how possible this sounds. Like, alongside the other bullshit we’ve been exposed to, this nonsense sounds like it could be real.
becauze nazi
Dude really made swasticars and fascists don’t even buy it because they don’t roll coal.
TIL it’s illegal to not buy a Tesla.
Believe it or not, straight to jail
It is working. Keep boycotting US everyone!
(Americans we still love most of you as individuals, its just … the threats and backstabbing by your leader is a bit much)
4 fucking years of this bullshit… Please die.
Four more years of this shit. I haven’t been able to wake up from this nightmare since '16.
I like the idea that Trump is Musk’s new car salesman. Oval Office/Tesla Headquarters.
Good grief, the President of the United States shilling for a Private Company. How pathetic.
I member the McDonald’s banquet.
I’d forgotten about that one. Yeesh
I actually stopped buying their products.
No huge loss. Black beans are black beans.
