France is literally protesting better than the USA over our own issues...

It's because your issues are everyone's issues.

I don't support contributions to environmental damage caused by fires. I love the idea that Tesla cars are destroyed. It's a conundrum.

That said, I like this more than I dislike it.

People can hold contradictory beliefs at the same time

I’ve heard the best thing people can do against Musk is to vandalise privately purchased Teslas. I’ve heard that will put mass fear in the market not to buy them.

I’ve heard that vandalising commercially owned Teslas will only result in insurance payouts and more Teslas being made.

I’ve heard that the best way to vandalise privately owned Teslas is to use spray paint, which is relatively easy to clean off (not hurting the owner too much) while being very media-affective.

That’s what I’ve heard.

The insurance premiums of the commercial ones will increase by a lot of this happens too much.

Smh you should tell that to the fools in the thread about the lady in Colorado. They seem quite oblivious to this

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Why would I tell anyone? I’m not condoning any action of vandalism at all. It’s only what I’ve heard.

Now that you’ve heard it too, you can tell others what you’ve heard without condoning it either.
