Thanks for hurting the environment I guess. Could have just boycotted tesla products and corporate tesla
Stick to the showrooms and dealers. The victims in Las Vegas was just owners who brought their cars in to be fixed.
They can use the insurance money to get a non tesla. Clearly these confused autistic gestures are not working since the de facto tyrannyical government is not reacting to it at all and not labelling it “terrorism”.

After seeing american tesla owners drive rentals in iceland, my toughts and prayers are with each of the expensive luxury vehicle owners and their families going through this tough time.
Wow. Having not read the article (just the headline)… I seriously don’t understand why people torch/destroy other peoples stuff! Yes Elon bad, but why attack innocent civilians?! 10-ish years ago, you were considered a leftist nutjob with a hardon for climate change when you bought a Tesla (note: I do firmly believe in climate change), these days you’re a nazi driving the exact same car?… Debate, discussion, even disagreement between parties is all fine and dandy, but actually destroying other peoples property is - in my honest opinion - against the very thing people ‘are fighting for’.
because true love is only possible in the next world, for new people. it is too late for us. so they wreak havoc on the middle class. tesla owners aren’t exactly in the same working class that the arsonist is likely radicalized by being a part of. burning the cars send a message to nazis, to elon directly, and to a lesser but still real extent, the petty bourgeois class that acts as the operating oppressive arm of the oligarchy. not saying its right or moral or good or bad for any cause, just likely the mindset of someone who is setting fire to nazi cars in 2025.
A tesla is well within the range of affordable for a working class person. Someone with a decent job will be making 100k, and it’s not hard to get a Tesla on that budget.
100k would put you right in the middle class. a working class person is going to be making less than like 65k a year and supporting a family on that.
Working class does not mean poor. It means people who work for their living. You have frontline manual labor workers who make over 100k and you dare suggest that just because they put in the work to unionize, that they aren’t working class?
Some advice for demonstrations (including propaganda of the deed):
- Wear a ski mask. Wear rubber gloves.
- Wear anonymous clothing.
- Don’t trust phones. Don’t use them to plan, and leave them turned on at home.
- Use a cell structure to organize, and share info on a need-to-know basis only.
- Assume there are not only cameras but microphones.
- Don’t drive anywhere near the location of the demo. Ride-haining services are even worse. Don’t even cycle in unless you can go off-road.
- Distinguish individuals’ property from corporate property.
- The goal is to live to fight another day. A fair fight is one in which you don’t get hurt.
Not having the phone with you is critical. But I assume planning is done on a laptop or desktop that is obviously not taken with?
Yep, anonymous browsers, burner accounts, and a VPN if you can. Privacy.sexy is your friend too.
You just want to set yourself up as best you can for the defense of “you can’t prove that was me.”
Imagine having to resort to violence against a private company just because you lost an election LMAO 🤣
You guys do realize that by promoting this, you are doing JD Vance’s campaign for him, right?
The stunlock continues at pace.
If the major stakeholder and CEO is actively being an unelected politician addressing policy changes onto the public, then repercussions need to happen.
It would not be wise to show people that they can achieve plutocracy. Plutocrats only lose their power by losing their wealth, so if that’s what has to happen, then that is the plan.
And to go and take it out on people who aren’t involved, just because they own a vehicle. Childish brats.
I’m not from the US, but I straight out recommend quickly educating oneself about military stuff at this point - about fiber guided drones (here in Eastern Europe we like them) and remote weapons stations (we like those too). Because the US is heading somewhere at a rapid pace. Let’s hope it won’t get there (the simplest and most civil obstacle would be lots of court cases and Trumpists losing midterm elections), but if it does, then strongly worded letters will not suffice.
Trump’s administration:
“Agency,” unless otherwise indicated, means any authority of the United States that is an “agency” under 44 U.S.C. 3502(1), and shall also include the Federal Election Commission.
Vance, in his old interviews:
“I think that what Trump should do, if I was giving him one piece of advice: Fire every single midlevel bureaucrat, every civil servant in the administrative state, replace them with our people.”
Also Vance:
“We are in a late republican period,” Vance said later, evoking the common New Right view of America as Rome awaiting its Caesar. “If we’re going to push back against it, we’re going to have to get pretty wild, and pretty far out there, and go in directions that a lot of conservatives right now are uncomfortable with.”
Googling “how to remove a dictator?” when you already have one is doing it too late. On the day the self-admitted wannabe Caesar crosses his Rubicon, it better be so that some people already know what to aim at him.
Tesla dealerships… nah. I would not advise spending energy on them. But people, being only people, get emotional and do that kind of things.
It’s only ok to be violent if you’re a Republican. I’m not supporting this, but since Jan 6’ers were pardoned then these car vandalisms are totally legal too. I think they’re equally immoral.
You think the coup attempt that ended lives is just as bad as property damage?
Well the property damage was only in response to the actual violence. So it’s like slapping your murderer.
So you agree they arnt morally equivalent?
Only in the most sarcastic sense.
Glad to hear it comrade
Tesla just likes building things that spontaneously catch on fire. 🤷♂️
I have never, and will never, see anyone vandalize a Tesla. 🙈
they should amend this Wikipedia article to include teslas https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spontaneous_combustion
We know that Teslas sometimes just catch fire on their own.
We also know that sometimes Tesla drivers will set their cars on fire themselves on purpose. Because of that…
We also know that Elon has a backdoor into all Teslas.
Now ask yourself which is more likely, the woke liberal crybabies actually causing violence or a drug addled and politically embattled CEO of a company that lost 50% of its value in the past 3 months creating a false flag to villainize the left and get insurance to cover damage to the vehicles he can’t sell?
/s (kind of)
Given Elons history, it’s definitely possible.
Wdym by “backdoor into all Teslas”
- This could mean “taking an industry standard sorfware update feature and making it abusively aggressive to or push malware to end users”
- it could mean “grants tesla 25-75% of the car’s controls from the internet”
- it could mean the former AND “grants access to diagnostics, settings and controls the consumer cannot access themselves”
- it could also mean “can run arbitrary code on your tesla at any time with little or no notice”
If unsold teslas catch fire, i’m convinced it’s some insurance scam. A car sold and a car gone that they can’t fix anyway
They’ve already shown what they are capable of, in terms of scam behavior, up in Canada.
Didnt the Nazi party burn down the Reichstag and blame it on the other party?
They blamed it on the communist party, yes. There were 8 parties represented in the Reichstag at the time though.
Thank you. My history has unfortunately become a bit rusty
Can’t believe the Insurrection Act is gonna be used because of homie’s swasticars
Insurance fraud due to slow sales
perfect. let’s see if all tesla dealerships do it
As a someone from Kansas City I want to say, this is who we are.

Problem with setting Teslas on fire is we can’t know if it’s an act of protest or if they just did that on their own.
The incident in Kansas City genuinely does sound like one just caught itself on fire.
In Kansas City, Police Captain Jacob Becchina said in a statement that an officer first observed smoke coming from a Cybertruck parked in a Tesla parking lot. “The officer used his fire extinguisher, however, KCFD was still needed as he could not put the fire out,” Becchina said. “The fire spread to a second Cybertruck parked next to the original burning one. The circumstances are under investigation, but preliminarily, the fire is being investigated for the potential of being an Arson.”
LoL 😂
Exactly 🤣🔥
They’ve become sentient, and are committing suicide.
This made me laugh out loud at my desk. Thank you
Could be insurance fraud too.
Probably a lot of the time it is. Nows a great time to do it if you’re gonna.
Saw a post earlier where a guy was 42,000$ underwater on his and wanted to offload it at that big of a loss before his insurance dropped it entirely.
*$42,000. You saved no time in typing it wrong and look stupid. Congratulations.
Nah, 42,000$ is more natural and consistent with other units.
you may be right but holy shit who cares lol
I was JUST about to say; how do we know they didn’t just do that? or that this wasn’t a buggy firmware update that just did that? or a malicious firmware update that did this?
