Buelldozer

I have absolutely no issues with the boycott. Elon the Idiot is learning the same lesson that the Ultra Wealthy of the 1920s did; getting publicly involved with politics can cost you a LOT of money. Bezos and Zuckerburg are learning it too. All of these Billionaires are getting a very expensive lesson in why they need to stay out of the limelight.

Because this is definitely a response against the insanity of fascism.

I don't think this has much to do with "fascism". If this was only happening to Cybertrucks (which are a pretty new model) or only happening at dealerships and so impacting Tesla itself that would be one thing but WTF does someone who bought a Tesla 3 years ago have to do with "fascism"?

This is a knee jerk reaction to what Elon is doing with DOGE and one group of people is lashing out at another group of people, many of whom having nothing to do with Tesla or it's front man aside from having bought a product.

don’t think the MAGA crowd retains significant reservations about engaging in vandalism themselves

The MAGA crowd is supposedly the most heavily armed and violent group of fascist thugs in existence and yet somehow they simply haven't bothered to ever do anything like this.

...it’s just that so far they haven’t spotted a target where it would serve their cause to do so

The coal rolling good ol' boys with an AR-15 in their back window could have started doing burning down EVs a decade ago when Elon was a Liberal darling...but they didn't. They could start doing it now but they haven't.

Should Republicans be voted out of power eventually, there will most certainly be vandalism from the right, conceivably even widespread violence against people...

I've been hearing this same argument for over a decade and yet its never really happened. Again, somehow the most highly armed group of violent fascist thugs in existence hasn't ever bothered to this en masse. Not even when they weren't in power, like just 2 years ago when they were all POd at EVs and Immigration.

Again, and I can't stress this enough, fuck Trump and his MAGA idiots. I despise them and I'm not defending them. I'm simply trying to force some reality and introspection into this mess.

This is happening all over the United States sometimes multiple times per day and being publicly celebrated in various places. I honestly can't think of a conservative oriented example of private property destruction on this scale to this much cheering.

If you truly have an "MS" then it should be trivial for you to do the math and calculate the power requirements of even a dozen cars being charged at the rate of 1 Megawatt each.

A bare 12 chargers, the equivalent of a single small gas station, would certainly collapse the grid its attached to. These kinds of charging rates aren't possible outside the parking lot of a power plant.

I'm struggling to come up with any examples that parallel what's happening with Teslas.
