Vandalism or resistance?
Depends on the point of view.
Vandalism.
Would you like to explain to the dealership that gave me a shitty old loaner Tesla why you decided to vandalize their property and make me have to deal with it through my insurance?
Don’t vandalize other people’s shit. You don’t know what their situation is. Golden rule, motherfucker.
I think the reason most people vandalize secretly is so that they wont have to explain themselves at all. Generally speaking, they hope the vandalism speaks for them and don't particularly give a fuck if it dings some jerk's insurance. As for the golden rule, I think you've got that confused too: Most people who vandalize in this way are hoping to inspire others to do the same, so golden rule very much in play.
The golden rule is to treat others the way you would want to be treated. So if you’re vandalizing someone else’s property, wouldn’t that mean you would also expect/want someone to vandalize your property?
I doubt someone getting their vehicle vandalized will want to then go out and do the same to someone else’s, and I doubt anyone vandalizing someone else’s vehicle wants someone to do the same to theirs.
Why are we directing our anger toward the drivers rather than the company/shareholders/dealerships themselves?
You’re not going to get people on your side by damaging their shit. You’re just going to make them more pissed off at you and whatever message you’re trying to send with your actions.
The difference is I would never even get in a Tesla. So yeah I'm treating others how I would like to be treated, if I was stupid enough to be driving a cybertruck.
I hope they feel the same way, but I don’t think they will.
If I would buy nazi shit I would love if someone shows my wrongdoing by devaluing it
I hope your message gets across, but I don’t think they’ll get it.
