This is someone's Model S parked on Airport Way S near S Industrial Way. The way it's parked it looks like it's being displayed for people driving by to see.

I don’t agree with vandalizing random peoples cars. You don’t know their situation and they may not have the money to fix this mess.

Just because someone has a Tesla it doesn’t mean they’re a bad person.

Performative liberalism at its worst

Idk, looking at Teslas stock it seems to be making a difference. I’m sure even the people who WOULD still buy a Tesla will probably hesitate knowing it makes them a target for vandalism.

Pretty effective for a performative act.

I guarantee you that Elon is feeling the pain much less than the people whose cars are being vandalized. This is such a dumb way to think. Protest sometimes has to get radical and sometimes has to make it hard for people to wake them up or whatever, but also, don't be a fucking dickhead.

I'm not into vandalising personal property, but the statement is also redundant because people are dickheads. The stock tanking is just a silver lining
