Tesla symbolises nearly everything the general public thinks of as 'Silicon Valley'.
For some people that is a huge durable advantage.
For other people that is a great part of 'what is wrong with the world'.
Like it or not, Tesla represents, in part, a political statement for many people. I have heard such opinions around the world, but more so in the US.
Most commonly these opinions are expressed in phrases like: "autopilots are a menace", "Tesla loses money on every car, it costs more to build one than they can sell it for", "There is no way to charge the things". "They would not survive without government subsidies". Many, but not all, have more grammatical errors than I am making in this post.
For people who have these views, driving one just makes it worse. They are not about to see Tesla as a representation of the future, unless it is a dystopian future.
Many smaller short sellers fit in this category.
