As much as I dislike Musk, it's really a dick move to vandalize other people's cars just because of who the manufacturer's CEO happens to be. Especially when most of them were bought well before he went off the deep end.

Agree I dislike Musk but this is no kind of solution.

When people go around vandalizing property over politics, the only thing they really accomplished is confirming the biases of their opponents.

People just enjoy the revenge fantasy don’t ruin the fairytale lol. But you are right it’s like people that dwell on arguments and come up with the perfect insult days later then post a story on reddit of how they got someone with their quick wit.

and that's assuming he went off the deep end. I've been following the news cycles for a while now, multiple sources, multiple views. I've never seen the left tell the full, complete, unedited truth. Don't get me wrong, the right lies a fair amount too, but I have never seen anything that anti trump journalism has said within the past 10 years that wasn't disproved within a couple years, with the exception of the court cases, but even those reeked.

Fellow travellers are fascists too, and shall be treated accordingly. And musk? He did not go down the deep end. He found something, hell, anything he could identify with. He found some ideology as racist, sexist and fucked up as he is.

I hate to break it to you, but Tesla owners tend to be more progressive than the average American. The states with the highest ownership rates are Oregon, New York, California, and Washington - all states that have been reliably blue for the last four decades. And the city with the highest rate of Tesla ownership is Seattle, WA - one of the bluest metro areas in the country.
