You'd rather CEO's kow-tow to profit over principle?
I, for one, find standing up to folks based on something other than the bottom line a bit refreshing. There's enough potential customers that you don't need to pander to those not acting in goof faith.
Short term profit take a hit?: probably
Long term will it galvanize other folks to staunchly support you? Likely.
Is there value in aligning with the mission despite breaking a few eggs? Definitely (for me anyway).
"Management reserves the refuse service to anyone."
It's not about kow-tow to profits over principle. It's making up stories like that guy who attacked Pelosi's husband with a hammer which he had to back down from. Anyone can say whatever they want, but there could/maybe repercussions so my comment is that maybe CEOs should just shut up like most other CEOs (like Nvdia CEO). It's a losing battle to hate on 50% of the population, honestly, but you keep doing you really and Tesla stock/investors are paying the price.
You can bring up many articles of fake stories (like that stalker after his wife) that he had to back down on as well since they weren't even after his family.
It simply alienates your customers which has been documented here as well and I think, reflects on Tesla's product with their customers. Why put a target on your back as the CEO of multiple large companies? You're simply making enemies.
