If more people would do the same, it could make an actual change. The thing is, not many are brave enough.
This is true for any political act, really. The reason they don't cause massive shifts is not that they are not effective in and of themselves, but because a single person only holds so much power to change something, and most people are too passive to follow.
They won't. Also, I think it's horrible that you think going around destroying property is a good idea to get a message out.
Violence is a common driver in politics. It comes into play when democracy fails, and I'd like to see less of it happening for sure, but it is there, and it's not that conservatives were never involved in such acts.
I don't think it's a "common" driver in politics at all. Sure there are small pockets of it here and there, but it's not big in the scheme of things. Destroying someones property just because you don't agree with their politics is lame regardless of which political party does it.
The concept of property is arbitrary to begin with. It just signifies the risk of violence applied to you should you, the non-owner, possess or destroy it.
In case of Teslas, they are used to enrich the already richest man on Earth at the expense of others. Mind you, those are cars of the dealership, they were not sold yet, so essentially, it is Musk's property.
And most on the left wouldn't be able to find a violin small enough to signify how much they care of the property of billionaires. Private property is not universally sacred, it's the feature of capitalist thinking.
