Law Tesla Cars are being lit on fire

[wlu.29]

And charging stations apparently

This is at least the third incident. What is your opinion on this trend?

Definitely don't condone violence or vandalism

 

[terrapin]

Ferrari is fast, Lamborghini is faster, but Tesla is fascist!

And now with white power steering!!

 

[terrapin]

That's the most hilarious part. Lefties are burning other lefties cars while lefties cheer it on.

I'm anti Tesla and anti-musk but that was funny as hell man.

 

[Bia]

Mostly peaceful but fiery protest

I'm anti Tesla and anti-musk but that was funny as hell man.

I think Elon is "challenged" so to speak and Tesla sucks balls but when you think about it this is kind of insane. I imagine the vast majority of owners aren't right wing.

You think I'm just referring to politicians?

Can you point out any prominent politicians on the left that have made a public statements against the targeted destruction of property?

Their silence is deafening.

Well, I can think of a politician that praised racists. Want me to tell you who it is?

Tesla stock price is linked very closely with the price of Bitcoin. Majority revenue is still appreciation of digital assets. They still sell less cars world wide than Ford sells in just the US.

Bitcoin price goes down, so does Tesla. That's why they're also pushing for Trump to subsidize Bitcoin with a Federal Bitcoin wealth fund.

Trump tariffs on import from China maybe playing role here.

Main supplier of lithium and accumulators is...China.
Majority of Electric motors used in modern EV cars are manufactured in ...China!

If Trump will implement huge import tariffs on everything imported from China....then you will see.

These are supposedly a nightmare for firefighters too.

So you think you want to light a Tesla on fire

As a local FF, PLEASE do not light EVs on fire in protest. The type and quantity of gasses that results are, in many cases, very immediately and highly harmful to firefighters. Protocols are in place now to try and come off the truck with masks on but if a bystander doesn’t mention is an EV, there is still a risk that we treat it as a normal car fire and mask up once we’ve had a chance to see what we are up against.

It takes tons of water that is usually now harmfully contaminated and we have to try and evacuate local businesses and multi families or try and shut down their HVAC systems in order to keep the toxic gas from entering businesses. Once the fire is “out”, it now has to, often times, be tailed by an engine(keeping it out of service for other emergencies) to a yard where it’ll sit for a while before it’s potentially disposed of because it can continue to light off.

There is a lot more to this including our current lack of ability to properly clean our bunker gear of these chemicals, the damage caused by that intensity of fire to the surface below it, the amount of resources that may have to be dedicated to managing such an incident that leaves grandma who needs CPR receiving care with a delay because of it, etc etc

I get the point of the protest but doing it this way is substantially more harmful to the public and first responders than it will ever be to Tesla/Musk/etc.

Messing with people's cars is low.

Damn they’re turning it into an art form now haha

Tim Tool.
That guy is a constant embarrassment.

He should ask Leon for Leon’s Hairplug guy.
Tim could then stop wearing that dumb hat.

From the party of inclusion and tolerance.

What's Biden have to do with the discussion?






If you're going to try to change the topic, try to not be so predictable about it.



Trump, Aug. 14, 2017: "As I said on Saturday, we condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry, and violence. It has no place in America.

And as I have said many times before: No matter the color of our skin, we all live under the same laws, we all salute the same great flag, and we are all made by the same almighty God. We must love each other, show affection for each other, and unite together in condemnation of hatred, bigotry, and violence. We must rediscover the bonds of love and loyalty that bring us together as Americans.

Racism is evil. And those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including the KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans.

We are a nation founded on the truth that all of us are created equal. We are equal in the eyes of our Creator. We are equal under the law. And we are equal under our Constitution. Those who spread violence in the name of bigotry strike at the very core of America."

The 'Very Fine People' myth has been debunked many times, but you leftists still try to deceive the ignorant.

I mean it was a Nazi salute, you're just writing fan fiction to deny it. You can do a Nazi salute without a being Nazi. That doesn't mean it's appropriate to do one.

Doing a Nazi salute in that setting was so pathetic and embarrassing as an American, but I'm sure you don't know what that's like since you've always been a pathetic Canadian.

Funny how it went from this being proof Elon was a Nazi all along to, wait a minute people think I'm a fucking idiot whenever I say Elon is a nazi, I know I just say that I don't know if he is a nazi but it certainly looks like it, that way I can make friends on both sides. What a cowardly way of thinking.

As an American I would be embarrassed that your pathetic education system has produced so many people who believe dumb shit.

This is so disingenuous... people vote with their wallets all the time. This is a good thing. This is free market capitalism at work and I hope we burn Tesla down to the ground forever.

terrorism is voting with your wallet how ?

Being a racist asshat. Didn't he call white nationalists chanting anti jew slogans "good people"? Crime was going down under Biden.

source ?

Didn't Elon Musk, part of the Trump admin, retweet suggestions that Derik Chavin be pardoned? Not to mention his Nazi salutes.

How does that make you a Nazi ? one autopsy showed that he died from a drug overdose. Does questioning that make you a nazi ? or should you just follow orders.... in order to not be a nazi ?

Rignt wing corporatist thinking:

- When a Tesla randomly bursts into flames, burning down a house or killing a driver, or randomly runs into a wall, or falls apart on the road because Tesla sucks at manufacturing cars, that's the marvels of capitalism.

- When a citizen burns a Tesla in retaliation for the CEO actively and aggressively dismantling the Government, ruining the lives of thousands of people, that's terrorism.

So what you are saying is basic logic and reasoning is a right wing line of thinking only ? Makes sense when you put it that way.

It's crazy how time progresses and things happen to change people's opinions and they aren't fixed in a point of time.

It's crazy how progressives opinions always change in tandem over time.

You really are unhinged

Look at the dipshits that put laughing emojis on this story.

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

Hope he they end up designing robotic dogs that are programmed to target leftist dregs

 

[ColemanwastheGOAT]

Aww boohoo. The troll doesn't like getting trolled. Fuck 'em. Elon doesn't give a shit about people. He's worried about his wealth.
If someone has any better ideas on how to strike back at an evil billionaire, I'm all ears.

Buring a private citizen's car isn't trolling Elon Trump.

Good to see you lefties outing yourselves ITT as terrorist sympathizers. And not foreign terrorists either. Domestic. Wow.

 

[KaNesDeath]

As long as its dealership stock where no one is hurt. Im fine with it.
