The selection bias is strong these days. Ok to graffiti political buses but not teslas and visa versa. But if anyone is surprised that crime goes up when a political party actively dismantles the societal norms and the government at the same time…well they probably didnt get good grades in history class.
Political busses are totally different from a personal vehicle.
I don’t live in the US but I do have a Tesla, I didn’t get it because I support Elon’s political views, I got it because I have a long commute and the Tesla is incredibly cheap to run compared to a traditional ICE vehicle. If I had earned more money I would have been tempted to get a different brand of vehicle but on the second hand market Tesla are pretty unbeatable regarding value. My car is not in any way an expression of political opinion.
Don’t you see how different this is from driving a bus that is literally promoting a specific ideological narrative? Expression of political opinion is the entire point of the bus.
Vandalizing someone’s car because of the brand is gross. Would be absolutely irony if these people drawing swastikas on teslas were arrested and charged with a hate crime.
There’s probably nowhere else in the country they’d openly get away with this. Seattle has become a total shit hole.
