Best way to hurt Elon is to hurt Tesla:

  • Boycott Tesla
  • Sell your Tesla stock
  • Shame those who drive one
  • Protest at a Tesla store
  • Be a fake customer at their dealerships
  • Post bad news about Tesla and $TSLA stock online

I’ve seen so many anti-Elon bumper stickers on Teslas in my city.

Super annoying when they are new purchases, in my opinion those folks should not get a pass.

the biggest move on the board for consumers is how they spend their money. if we can’t rely on the Judicial to stop Musk, we will have to economically hurt him.

Right, Protest at Tesla, shame those who buy one, be a fake customer at one of the dealerships, post bad news about the $tsla stock*.

* that stock should be $10/share and is elevated by nothing but hype and lies.

I like the last one the most. Gotta stock up on stink capsules and accidentally drop a few when admiring the leather.

Bought my Tesla stock in 2014 and sold in December- happy for how the gains have positively impacted my life, but will not be looking back.

Was going to buy a redesigned Y prior to the musk shenanigans- q2 numbers are going to be rough.

I refused to buy my kid a hot wheels cyber truck so I guess I'm helping?

It’s wild that republicans are more upset about this than they are about school shootings.

Apparently billionaire's lifestyles matter but not children's lives.

They’re not too upset about the livelihoods of the government workers (or the smashing of the government itself) that Elon is frantically working to destroy. Nor are they concerned about the mass amounts of data ghat Elon is stealing from DOGE raids on government computer systems.

I’m sorry, but there are much larger issues on the line here than a few vandalized dealerships. These DOGE attacks are tearing at the fabric of our government.

I can't decide which is funnier; the guy who just tossed a car 20 feet off a ship, or the two gentlemen investigating why the cars turned the harbor to gelatin.

Makes sense

Instead of dumping them in the ocean can we start taking them apart and recycle? A lot of expensive material for such a facist car!

u/John-AtWork 18h ago

The best end to a Tesla!

u/garrettj100 15h ago

This is so unrealistic.  Everyone knows the Teslatruck will immediately catch fire if you get it wet.

u/smokeybearman65 19h ago

I think of this every time someone brings up Tesla vandalism. It's not OK to vandalize Teslas (privately owned OK, but dealerships?) but we are taught from a very early age that it was OK for the Sons of Liberty to dump the tea that wasn't theirs to dump?

u/John-AtWork 18h ago edited 17h ago

I hear you, but there are plenty of legal ways to hurt Tesla, so no need to risk jail time.

u/omgFWTbear 16h ago

Who has the money to message that it’s bad to hurt property, to convince those who write laws to defend property? People may be suffering and dying, but whatever you do, woe, won’t someone think of the stuff?

u/ictrlelites 18h ago

I don’t necessarily think vandalizing private property is a good way to protest. even if they buy a Tesla as a political statement there are better ways to convey a message without property damage.

Just throw your batteries in the ocean

u/DynamicDolo 15h ago

I love that every cyber truck made, to-date, has been recalled because Elon sucks.

u/NatureCarolynGate 15h ago

The Boston Tea Party was an action against tariffs as the painting demonstrates. This is totally lost on the two chief assholes

1

u/AKMarine 19h ago

The title needs to be added into the art as BOSTON T PARTY (using the Tesla symbol for the T).

1

u/ReddditSarge 19h ago

Inaccurate. Real Tesla "Tea Parties" involve burning and dumpsters.

u/dchap1 18h ago

That’s a lot of Audis and Toyotas

u/IMSLI 18h ago

I hope no one reports this as “domestic terrorism”

u/John-AtWork 17h ago

Are Trump supporters dumb enough to think a cartoon AI image is real?

1

u/Halfwise2 16h ago

They'd probably make okay reef forms.

u/bigpapakewl 15h ago

Except it’s the OPPOSITE of the Boston Tea Party where the people were protesting the government taking our money, these dumbasses are protesting them trying to take money from the government and give it back to us.

2

u/John-AtWork 15h ago

You don't quite understand what a tariff is.

1

u/bigpapakewl 14h ago

I don’t think you do. No tariffs on Teslas, they are made in the U.S.A. genius.

2

u/John-AtWork 14h ago

Okay, give it a really good effort now! Who is implementing the tariffs? Who is working with and financially backing that person? Must be fucking hard to be you.

1

u/bigpapakewl 12h ago

It’s actually awesome to be me. Your meme is dumb and doesn’t make sense … face it, you’re not funny despite what your mommies always say.

u/John-AtWork 11h ago

My effort is to motivate people to take on fascism. Not to make a thick headed fascist laugh.

u/tilt-a-whirly-gig Greg Abbott is a little piss baby 8h ago

You can disagree with the politics of the meme, but to claim it doesn't make sense at all is willfully ignoring it.

In 1773, people were pissed at the king (their government). They decided to take it out on the king's wallet in a symbolic show of defiance. In 2025, people are pissed at musk (de facto government). People are taking it out in attacks to his wallet in a symbolic show of defiance. The art looks like bad AI and the humor might be lost on some, but the meme makes sense.

Where does Tesla source it's materials? The batteries are made in cooperation Panasonic. Many of the materials (cobalt, lithium, etc) come from China

But they double as boats!
