I'll bet the owner of that dealership sure is sorry for jumping on last month's bandwagon! Idiot!
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.
This.
"Blake bortles!!!" 🔥🍾
Elon Musk is insane and deeply wrong.
This!
He sure someone didn't spill a drink on it?
How do we know they didn't just burst into flames spontaneously?
right? they're not well made
We know that they did. Burst spontaneously. This happens.
Wouldn't be surprised if this ones just old school fraud. People are desperate to get rid of Teslas these days.
I was thinking the same thing. Pass the buck to the impoverished insurance companies. Maybe one less yacht this year.
You know what we need to call this? A good start.
The French started this particular Tesla protest strategy. Vive la révolution.
Love the French.
They have some other historical strategies we should look into as well. 😁
The French burn cars everytime they're angry, it's not really a Tesla thing. And they get angry a lot.
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 wonder if they can be scratched?
Salt and vinegar (or sodium chloride, if you want to buy it ready made) is an easy to prepare solution that is excellent for etching metal.
I was thinking of those cordless multi tools. If I had a Tesla I'd get a nice, tasteful fuck elon musk design made, which, if possible would be uneconomical to ever remove (deep into the metal?). So even if I sold the Tesla, new owners would be unlikely to pay to fix my art.
Mhm, would be an interesting scientific experiment
Insane and deeply wrong actions for insane and deeply wrong times
So is being a nazi
I thought it was an engineering design 🤷🏻♂️
We know they are insane and deeply wrong. That's why we set them on fire, you idiot.
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.
It's absolutely not a "small" minority at all, a large batch of buyers were progressives who wanted to step in a direction for a more environmentally responsible means of travel where there isn't sufficient public transport. I know quite a few personally and they hate owning it but financially, they can't just get rid of it. They've also completely stop using the self-driving after some scary swerves
Musk has been a twat for years guys and insufferable moron and always has been
The general populace was blinded by the media for a long time though.
