I mean there are a whole lot of fascists in Germany…
I might go as far as to say German culture is the least capable of resisting fascism in Europe based on the last ~150 years of history. Which doesn’t mean all Germans are like that but Germany has a serious weakness towards becoming broadly enamored with fascism. (I live in the US, to be clear I see the US very similarly).
Of course Elon Musk is going to be popular with fascists in Germany. This is the same old shit over and over again.
I will say the idea of Germans buying shitty, badly made US cars because they are made by a company owned by an inept fascist is pretty funny in a dark way.

Coming from a European, the absolute masters of the “look there, a three-heade monkey Germany!!!”-diversion, usually with topics that are pure projection of their own fuck-ups, too, this must be satire.
Don’t these obsessive rightwing projects of micromanagement expanded into a violent and pervasive state of control by overconfident vastly powerful men usually work out perfectly?
I am shocked!
They probably weren’t worshipping strength and productivity over everything else in their lives hard enough.
My personal armchair opinion is they should try it again but this time have less empathy for the weak and downtrodden who don’t fit into the plan. Then it will surely work! I know this because I am a rich and powerful businessman and that makes me less naive than everybody else.
It’s wild that people still buy those Fascistmobiles.
I prefer the term “Swasticar”, as coined by this amazing British campaign:

Looks at Russia…
Most of them are poor tho. Like the people voting for AfD will mostly not buy Teslas.
Those are the tools.
Fascism is enabled and engaged via the petite bourgeoisie.
Also, sidenote, not all Teslas are expensive?
Most people who are intelligent know that buying pretty much any other brand of EV is a better choice so I am sure you can get Teslas cheap right now.

With the way they keep killing people, I wasn’t all that comfortable getting a Model Y uber in the snow last winter.
Wow what a surprise it failed?!???
