WTF? What part of Ford’s constituency is it trying to appeal to here, and why?

Of course, the company’s ALWAYS HAD soft spot for dictators and fascist propaganda

Ford goes after Elon Musk in bizarre new ad

Airing now:

Right now it could seem like the only people who matter are the loudest. Those who want to tear things down and then fly away on their personal spaceships when things get hard. But we’ve got 182,000 people and they’re building.

The ad is available on YouTube now, but will first hit the national airwaves during this weekend’s Kentucky Derby, according to tech news site Gizmodo.

“What’s odd about the commercial is that Elon Musk isn’t known for tearing things down; he’s known for building them. He founded Tesla and SpaceX, as well as the company X.com, which later became PayPal. His record of achievement is unparalleled, and he is currently the richest man in the world. Tesla is by far the most successful electric vehicle manufacturer, accounting for a whopping 75 percent of the US marketso far in 2022.”

Of course, Tesla is non-union, and we can’t have that.
