    In posts on X following the incident, Tesla CEO Elon Musk called the incidents “terrorism” and said the company “just makes electric cars and has done nothing to deserve these evil attacks.”

    OK buddy.

      The cars suck, but he’s right that the company hasn’t done anything to deserve this. He’s the one who chose to make himself the face of Tesla, though, so however people feel about him, they’ll feel about any business he owns.

      Terrorism, though? Hardly. It’s protest. He’s the one doing terrorism by dismantling the government.

        Even if they do, protests and boycotts need to continue past it. A lot of his wealth is in Tesla stock, and he’s going to benefit from the shadows if the public moves on and TSLA recovers.

      It’s not terrorism. They were just peacefully touring the dealerships. Just like January 6. Peacefully touring.

      “Evil attacks”, like we’re killing puppies, or something.

      It’s vandalism against machines, and the only victim here is the insurance companies.

        Leave the puppy killing to the expert, Kristi Noem.
