In other words, good. Also, no one gives a shit about billionaire snowflake feelings.
It's not nationwide, it's multinational, although obviously not for the same reasons. Several countries in Europe are also protesting and vandalising Tesla and Musk-related stuff.
It was created by an Elon Musk superfan who identified himself to ARTnews as a French tech entrepreneur under the pseudonym “Louis XXII."
His other pseudonyms include Adrian Dittman and Doge Designer
You love to see it. Keep this civil disobedience up! It probably won't fix anything, but it sure as shit annoys them.
Next time deface the man himself.
There is too much left
Nazis shouldn't have statues
Billionaires should have statues
Scammers shouldn't have statues
Racists shouldn't have statues
Thieves shouldn't have statues
Assholes should not have statues
So Elmo musk shouldn't have a statue
Fuck Elmo musk
There's a lyric in a Why? song Only those evil live to see their own likeness in stone.
That's not stone, that's fiberglass with a "stone" coating on it. Fake as fake can be.
WTF is this thing?
Damn, that's the worst case of vandalism I've ever seen!
How is that real and not AI Slop?
It's like Ron Swanson shaved his mustache, got stung by bees, then had a stroke.
He got the same sculpter as Ronaldo.
New Bioshock/Idiocracy crossover just dropped
God it’s even uglier than the CR7 one.
And at least CR7 does—or did—one thing really well and I understand setting up a statue for him.
Who commissioned this? The “MemeLord” himself? It’s pathetic.
I can't tell who's on more drugs the horse, Forrest, or the gun.
Your comment really got me good. Ahahaha. Was not prepared for the gun.
Look at it it's all sorts of wrong, if ya showed it Zach Hazard he'd fucken puke. It's all types of wrong.
Literal pea shooter
That one's hilarious
Nathan Bedford Forrest, seeing the statue from Hell:
AI?
It is not
Jeezus
Is this after it was vandalized?
No, it looks better now
Holy shit. I assumed you quickly made a ridiculously bad AI approximation what his 9-foot tall bust would like. But… that’s real… even the “memelord” inscription. WTF.
I had to google that shit myself thinking you guys were both having a giggle. No fucking way...
I wanna look it up myself too, because what the fuck even is this
Lmfao is he fucking serious with that thing…? What the actual fuck?
Insecurity, probably.
