Though Elon Musk may be notably peeved about his ongoing beef with Disney CEO Bob Iger, famously telling the exec to “go f—k” himself after the media giant yanked their Twitter ads over the emerald heir’s alleged online antisemitism, no one is quite as pissed as a self-described “Tesla Hoe” who can no longer stream and drive.

One popular Tesla owner known as @TheTeslaHoe — the “Hoe” allegedly standing for “honest owner’s experience”  – headed to Twitter on Monday with a rare complaint for the controversial car maker, lamenting that Musk’s decision to obscure the Disney+ app in his cars has made it harder for her and her children to watch TV while behind the wheel.



“So Disney+ has now been removed from Tesla vehicles. I’m assuming this is in retaliation to Disney pulling advertising from X,” she captioned her now-viral snap of her Disney+-less console.


Despite admitting that the media giant has “every right” to yank their promotions from the platform, @TheTeslaHoe argued that she, and other Tesla-piloting parents, were the real victims of this ongoing standoff, having suffered the crushing blow of gasps not being able to watch Disney movies while operating heavy machinery.


“So now I, as a mom, get to deal with telling my toddlers we can’t watch Disney+ while in our Tesla and deal with their upset feelings because 2 grown men can’t have a civil discussion and move on,” she continued, noting that Musk’s decision to allegedly obscure the app “has WAY more of an affect on Tesla owners than it does Disney.”


“Disney is freakin; loaded and they’re definitely not reliant on their app being in every Tesla vehicle,” she continued, denouncing Musk’s move as coming off “like a temper tantrum.” “And I feel like Tesla owners are now caught in the crossfire of something that is absolutely not their fault.”


Though the automaker later issued a statement noting that Disney+ was still available through the car’s internet browser, several found themselves grappling with another question — why is this even a thing?



“Apologies to parents of young children but not sure how I feel about cars having built-in video streaming apps in the dash,” wrote @tysonbrody.


“it should straight up be illegal to have TV apps on your car,” added

@justacoverban while @thizzg843 (accurately) assessed @TheTeslaHoe’s complaint as “the most first world white woman problem” that they had “ever read.”



But even amid this debate about whether or not drivers should have a fully-functioning TV in the dash, we can’t help but feel for @TheTeslaHoe — we can stand explosions and deadly self-driving malfunctions but no Disney+? That’s too far.
