It’s one thing if a person has a distaste for musk, but destroying someones property (a Tesla) after they buy a car, which seems to be a common trend.

Agreed. Not only that, but some people bought the Tesla because they believe in Electric Vehicle movement. Which Dems and Lemmy's used to be all about!

I mean I doubt if ANY of these Tesla owners went out and bought a Tesla just because Trump became besties with Musk.

Dude seriously messed up his life because of blind politics. Now he'll have a record for rest of his life. Hope he likes dumpster-diving for vegan food behind Whole Foods. Because his job choices are gonna suck now.

All because he was mad about who was president. And it didn't even change anything! lol

Agreed, though I would also argue that destroying property just to make a point is not the way to go. Now show up in mass to protest at the dealership. Cool. Destroying other people's shit, even if owned by a company, is not cool.

It's stupid, hurts the cause, and can cause a serious criminal record.

Showing up in a peaceful mass is exactly what they want. Showing them you're not afraid to destroy things to fix the status quo is what scares them. The time for peaceful protest is over.

Showing them you’re not afraid to destroy things to fix the status quo is what scares them.

But it doesn't scare them. Nothing has changed. Would you like conservatives to go destroy cars at dealerships in your area because they didn't like Biden or Harris? You know what you all would be saying if that happened?! Come on, now...

I totally agree that random people's cars should be left alone. Especially since most EV owners are democrat anyway.

Maybe it's changing. I mean until recently it was liberals who were all about EV's, living off the grid, going vegan and being hippies. So if conservatives are doing that now, I wonder if liberals are gonna go the opposite way?

Kinda like back in the old days, country music people hated long hair that rock and roll wore. Now every almost every country star guy has long hair. And rockers go short.

But to the point, most conservatives I know just don't have the money for EV. I would think that even if some conservatives to, I bet most EV owners are liberal.

Wasn't it just a few years ago that people were blaming conservatives on big gas guzzlers and texas style truck lifestyles?
