Crazy letter left on my windshield over the weekend..

[Saghost]

Yeah, this. And I actually think, in this day and age of paid sock puppets and internet trolls, that some of these lobbyists and PR firms actually write this stuff to make it look like a nitwit wrote it... because that would actually have more credibility with the other knuckleheads who will parrot the info to their circles.

That said, what's the point of leafletting Tesla owners? To scare them...

I think you've answered your own question. There's a lot of intimidation going on right now.

 

[ohmman]

I certainly hope you read it next to the car, feigned interested surprise at the "facts" within, and pumped your fist through the air like you were going to do something about it. You know, just in case he (or she) were watching.

I think the general opinion is that Big Electricity would very much like to have all Big Oil's customers become their customers, so no. That love presumably doesn't extend to SolarCity and PowerWall.

The Big Electricity in my (other) neighborhood is suing to avoid state environmental regulations, so yeah, Big Electricity too. They have >lots< of assets that are on the verge of being stranded.

Is every single person that owns a Tesla an elitist liberal that thinks that just because they own a Tesla, they're much smarter than everyone else?

I certainly am.

 

[plankeye]

Sadly this sounds like something my brother would write. He called me out of the blue and went on a drunken rant about my upcoming Model 3 purchase and my vegan lifestyle.

Wait, that belongs in your first flyer from a couple of years ago. Your latest one was filled with sarcasm so you need to say it this way:

"Every single Tesla owner is an elite liberal that we all know is way smarter than everyone else. So way to go you smarty pants!"

Wow. As an ultra-conservative Tesla lover, I sure hope this letter was written by a liberal trying to make conservatives look bad. Unfortunately, since most of my friends are conservative also, I've heard a ton of stupid crap about Tesla from them. I always prove them wrong and say, "you might want to double check your source of information - obviously it's not just the mainstream media that is biased."

It's good to have convictions. But people REALLY need to learn to think for themselves a little. And that goes for both sides.

I know, it's sad to see that it's happening in Tesla's HQ's backyard.. I was parked here:

Marc, in fact my wife and I parked our S in that parking area last Saturday from 0815 to 1545 because we were doing a 15 mile hike in Purisima with our hiking group Sierra Club Day Hiking Pages - Sierra Club Day Hiking (Belmont, CA) | Meetup

I'm guessing you were there on Sunday? Glad the lunatic didn't see my Tesla there.

Why do liberals need to do that when conservative are doing such a good job all on their own? ...

Because we liberals have the needed skill of writing. J/k j/k too soon?

What do you expect? Cue intro to Beyoncé "Daddy Lessons" song. Well in your case the Dixie Chicks collaboration version.

I was there Saturday as well! Around 10am to 2pm, so inside your hours (shorter hike than yours - well done on the 15 miles!)

I got something like this left on my front door once. In my case it was about evolution being a fraud. Same basic structure and logic, perhaps a little less phrenetic. Yours is amazing. Do you suppose he really owns a Tesla? Perhaps the Mattel model without the dangerous battery pack.

 

[Mr X]

Lol. Funny

 

[lklundin]

If you want, share with Tesla HQ, as they took this seriously back in 2012.

Good idea. Using printer steganography law enforcement has a good chance to identify the exact device that printed the paper.

But people REALLY need to learn to think for themselves a little.

And refrain from leaving anonymous letters to strangers.

 

[robby]

Is there a page 2 of this? I'm real close to selling my Tesla now; it all hinges on what #7 says.

I wouldn't use that letter as a demonstration of writing skills...

This guy seems like the type of person who spends a significant ammount of his life arguing about the difference between Chevy and Ford trucks.

if you're intimidated by a note like that maybe you should never venture out from your safe space
