80 Teslas damaged at Hamilton dealership, largest car vandalism reported in Canada against the U.S. company | CBC News

Here's a thought... Pre-vandalize it.
Get some white paint that won't damage your car, and write "Fuck Musk", or "Swasticar" so it looks like it's been keyed into your paint. Maybe grab a quality "cracked window" decal and slap it on the glass. Finally, take your bumper covers off.
Then when (or if) this shit cools off, you can just wash the car, peel the decal and re-attach your bumper covers.
And then park it front of a Tesla sales center?
I have a friend that does EV conversions of RAM Promaster vans. I wouldn't mind using my car to do a conversion and then build it out for a class b camper van.

Remember a guy telling it is more efficient to paint over sold Tesla to discourage buyers. But we have to admit news of burning Tesla is pretty discouraging too.

I’m not too concerned about the dealerships. They have insurance. But can these people stop doing it to privately owned vehicles? And also, stop harassing the telsers on the road. I’ve seen a few videos now of drivers being harassed. That’s not Canadian.
Also, car dealerships are the backbone of local conservative party funding. They are the financial backbone of the fascist movement

Seems like the thought is: if you paint a Tesla you prevent the sale of that one Tesla, but if you burn one, the entire populace has second thoughts about buying any Tesla.

This is as narrow an understanding of things as any Republican which is my point. But can't call that out right that would make me a centrist even though I'm not. Can't be critical or you're labeled a "them"
There are flowers that smell pretty and there's flowers that look pretty and there are those that aren't really flowers but trees. Which ones do you like?
So, are you opposed to fascism, for it, or just waiting for the winner?
Or, what's your other option here? I fail to see any other at this time.

I totally understand where yer coming from. And I hope that those who can decouple themselves from it, do so. But like hell I’m going to endorse harassing people without context. All that does is endorse extremism. Extreme acts can be condoned, but I sure hope you have a plan for afterwards. If not, you’ve just become what you are railing against.
You have the context: they are still showing their support for a fascist state, and this
is worthy of harassment, as a matter of community defense.Would you defend a woman wear her grandpa's swastika pin, for any reason, or is that enough context, in that case?
We, as a society, are swinging back to making displays of fascism unacceptable. That's all the needed context.

On the other hand, if you only pay for things that don't support evil, you'll starve in Capitalism.
And that's by design. -
Tesla's aren't selling?
- Set them on fire.
- Claim that it's arson.
- File insurance claim.
- Profit.

To be fair, one of my neighbors bought one years before he knew about this, I don't believe he had any idea. I don't necessarily think he should have his car burned.
-
So you do realize that a lot of people bought these well intentioned vehicles before Musk became a total fuckstick, right?
Not everyone has the luxury of being able to just go sell their vehicle that they are more than likely underwater on with the loan and can’t just pivot.
Nuance my friend.

Yes, he'd still be a large shareholder
If they fire him, he would sell. This would tank the stock value.
They're damned if they do and damned if they don't.
- Large shareholders can’t just sell. There are rules to prevent stock manipulation
- He’d be the first victim of tanking the stock. Not in his best interest
- He can’t sell any shares used for collateral

Not all that surprising that Canadians are especially pissed off. Didn't he say Canada isn't a real country and then he deleted the Tweet afterwards? Yes he did...

Tesla could solve most of their problems by firing Musk. Any other public company whose CEO makes a very public Nazi salute would fire that CEO.
Yes, he'd still be a large shareholder, but I think simply getting him out of the company would give a lot of people the sense that he faced some personal consequences for his actions, and that any companies who deal with Musk will also face consequences.

They could have done this a LONG time ago... now the damage is done. Nobody would care he is no longer CEO (although that may help Tesla develop better cars), people are not going to want to drive a Swasticar anyway nor give money to a literal Nazi
Short of selling all his stock and completely disappearing from the public eye, Musk completely destroyed Tesla. There are simply better options that do not include helping/associating with a Nazi

It won't.. they will bail it ot with taxpayer money.
Like it or not every US citizen will buy some Telsa stock (but never own it).
Capitalism for thee, but communism for me if the business fails.Good, let the USA burn their money and tank their economy bailing out a company nobody would buy a car from

I read something earlier in the week about a tesla dealership being vandalised here in N Ireland. Might be a worldwide thing.

Of course he would have deleted it, so nice capture! And thanks for sharing. What a loser manchild -Elon

Burn it all down! Every thing that fascist fuck has!
We need anonymous to dismantle Twitter and plummet it all so it can be amongst all the other apps that went to the grave.

If they fire him as the CEO. Now that would be interesting to see the turning events of that whole company. It would definitely salvage the massive amount of loss within their company. Which is insane because they would just have to fire Elon as the CEO.
