how does this benefit anyone? I would rather disassemble it/sell it.

Reduce sales because it will put people off buying one, in theory…
Ledericas@lemm.ee 5 weeks ago
especially people are buying the trucks despite what musk is doing, so the customers are totally ignorant, and also supporting people like musk.

Driving up insurance rates is certainly a possibility.

Is the idea to hurt people that bought Teslas a few years ago?
Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Drives down the price of teslas.
Arson isn’t essential. A non violent act would be throwing eggs at the swasticar.
MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Now, is not a time for non violent rebellion.
urandom@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Apparently eggs cost a lot in the US now

They’re helping put Tesla stock on sale to kindly help new investors get a piece of the company.

These things happen sometimes…

Tesla just likes building things that spontaneously catch on fire. 🤷♂️

As a someone from Kansas City I want to say, this is who we are.

Surely it was a glitch that set the Teslas on fire themselves and no one was involved.
drmoose@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Nice.

Thanks for hurting the environment I guess. Could have just boycotted tesla products and corporate tesla

multiple is not enough.

Tough shit.

Tesla will simply give the people new vehicles. If one wants to really hurt Tesla, don’t buy them.

Arguably making it a bad to own tesla would cost the company a lot more faster since nobody would want any of them. It is kinda assholish since people bought those terrible piles of garbage since they were told they were green and rich people luxury flex, while they refused to do their research about the vehicle and its innumerable issues.
Honestly dumping the bank owned car you keep in your yard for appearances for cheap would be a good idea since tesla will kill you in an otherwise survivable accident and it will turn off autopilot microseconds before crash in order to blame you.

Imagine having to resort to violence against a private company just because you lost nlan 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.

I’m not from the US, but I straight out recommend quickly educating oneself about fiber guided drones and remote weapons stations. Because the US is heading somewhere at a rapid pace.
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 do you remove a dictator?” when you already have one is doing it too late. On the day the wannabe Caesar crosses his Rubicon, it better be so that some people already know what to aim at him.

“good terrorism” should be the next word of the year
mycelium_underground@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
When you commit “terrorism” against the fascist enemies of the American people, is not terrorism it’s the right thing to do

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
Fredthefishlord@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 weeks ago
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. And no, they aren’t the “petty bourgeois” or what have you
