    Maybe now he knows why most CEO’s and billionaires are content to pull the stings and fuck us over from the shadows. You can’t start dismantling our democracy while throwing up sieg heils and not expect people to fight back. Dumbass.

      I was thinking the same thing. Pass the buck to the impoverished insurance companies. Maybe one less yacht this year.

    In all seriousness: I am fighting against neonazis here in Germany since >20 years. Physically and rhetorically.

    Do not, I repeat do not set teslas on fire!

    • you bring people in danger that are innocent
    • you will make enemies in crucial places: firefighter, medical services ( i would say police, but you are in the US… so …)
    • you will hurt the environment

    But new point could be a good idea. I mean, those big canvases scream for some spray paint.

    I feel bad for the minority of owners who may have bought before Musk was so obviously shitty. I didn’t really think of him as anything more than the usual tech ceo until the “calling a rescue diver a pedo” thing.

    And I mean it’s likely a very small minority, but I think a more focused protest would be artistically altering cars on sales lots, or on factory lots. Obviously a lot harder to do, so like, any tesla over no tesla? But I’d prioritize the newer models, and ones that tesla still owns or will likely have to pay to reimburse, gets you the bonus of costing them more money outside stocks/sales.
