It matters because ya’ll hurting wannabe Lex Luther whose face is being eaten by leopards.
Fuck Elon.
Burn a few and get a little satisfaction. Burn some more and you get some more satisfaction. Burn 'em all and you get complete satisfaction.
Burn 1 its vandalism Burn 10000 its a statistic
Automate their burnination and you get a satisfactory!
Laws should be applied equally. What’s up with the J6 protesters? They get pardons, but if you touch a Tesla, 20 years in Gitmo,
Who’s gonna stop this clown show? It’s not gonna end in anything but bloodshed.
I’m worried MAGA has genuinely been working to make things so bad that the civil war they’ve been salivating for becomes the only possible outcome. I genuinely starting to wonder if we can restore any semblance of sanity to this country without violence entering the equation.
people forget Christians are a doomsday cult
they genuinely want the end of days, that’s what their whole thing is about
Oh we’re way beyond that point…
A bunch of schools get shot up, nothing happens.
A Tesla spontaneously catches fire, domestic terrorism!
A proper response from Burgerland.
'Murica!
Will somebody pleaseeee protect these corporations???
Not only schools, there are whole neighborhoods in most cities that are nothing less than a war zone with people involved being younger and younger. Why should gangs risk jail when they can recruit bored teens or tweens to do their dirty work and not be charged as adults?
But a few damaged Teslas are a problem?
Where are these neighborhoods? Do you know what urban warfare actually looks like? Have you seen footage of Gaza for example?
You make a good point. Maybe I’ve fallen into the trap of seeing street after street of boarded up buildings and hearing of houses being hit by stray bullets every couple of months and thinking it is a war zone.
I’ve never witnessed an actual war zone and can only go by images and videos I’ve seen. Maybe the better term is “areas with frequent gang activity that could mean innocent bystanders could get hit with a bullet”?
A capitol building, too, if I remember correctly.
This presidency is debasing every institution it touches. It is built on the corruption of the courts, or he wouldn’t be in power at all.
What do you mean nothing happens? The school shooters either end up in prison or dead.
“Terrorism” has no meaning when it’s used by a fascist terror state. It’s always been just a political slur against the other team’s violence.
Not even violence. Against any dissenting thought.
And not violence, when it comes to destroying inanimate objects
any criticism of the fascist state is the worst kind of violence and is obviously terrorism worthy of torture, or worse /s
In a Nazi government, “terrorism” is just another word for resistance. Just look what happened in Nazi Germany back then. Kids were executed for distributing pamphlets.
In Luigi we trust.
It’s literally legal to blow up a Tesla. Jan 6 pardons set the legal precedent that organized terrorism involving property damage is just fine. Carry on vandals. I do not condone or reject your actions but I do understand them to be legal.
it’s only legal if you are a MAGA cunt.
Crimes against persons/police officers were also pardoned
Important to remember this when we consider the relative morality of Tesla vandals. So far I haven’t heard of anyone getting hurt so I think it’s pretty mild.
Pretty sure laws don’t exist in the us anymore anyways…
More to the point, laws there are made up as they go along. Now I know that all laws are made up, but in the US today, it’s literally “that law is what I make it to be today, tomorrow it might be something else”
Precedent means shit in an environment like that
Nope, it’s not legal to blow up a Tesla.
I’m legitimately confused. Why is this different than Jan6ers who were pardoned? I thought violent insurrection/protest was legal since Jan 6 2021. ELI5.
It’s also illegal in some places to bring an orange into a bathtub, we use common law in the US so citing civil law statutes is not a valid argument.
I know you’re a Russian shill based on your comment history, your home country follows civil law so perhaps that’s confusing to you.

Jan 6th benefits trump, torching teslas doesn’t. His doj won’t apply the laws equally, the rule of law is long dead in the US.
If the law is arbitrary then everything is legal.
I see it differently. If the law is arbitrary, only the things the leader wants its legal.
Legal becomes a meaningless term then. If we can define words however I want my definition is equal.
Pardons don’t make the crime they committed legal.
So being “legal” is meaningless then?
Does insurance even pay out for “acts of terrorism”…?
Some interesting things came to my attention recently.
One, there was a headline about the guy who got caught setting fire to Teslas at a dealership, saying that he had caused “$5 million in damage.” For setting a few things on fire? Really?
Then, my HOA insurance policy renewal came across my desk (for the HOA, I’m on the board). I’m looking over all the details in the quote and I find some things about a federal program to insure against terrorism. This section explained how, in 2020, the requirement that the perpetrator be a “foreign agent” was dropped. Guess what wasn’t dropped: the requirement that the damage must be at least $5 million. There is a portion of the insurance premium that goes to pay for this program (its own insurance premium that’s handled through the insurance company). It’s $80/year.
Ever wonder why they’re so keen on classifying these as terrorism? Sure, the authoritarianism is a big part of it, but the other part is that it lets them get paid more money, from the federal government. Call it terrorism, say there was more than $5M in damages, get paid.
This is incredibly insightful, thanks.
As usual for pretty much anything in the US: follow the money. The dollar rules everything else.
Good point! I believe usually not?
The domestic terrorism designation could give law enforcement sweeping authority to surveil people protesting against Elon Musk’s role in the US federal government, civil liberties experts warn.
Which is exactly why people were “this is going to bite us in the behind”, when patriot act and so on was originally done and so on.
Way easier to change “who is terrorist”, than “give us authorization to do this new thing” in the first place.
It’s crazy that many provisions from the Patriot Act are still in effect today.
Yes everyone who plans to attend a Tesla Takedown protest should fully read effs guide to attending a protest. Protect yourself from political retaliation by staying anonymous!
Everything is terrorism to the fearful ones at the top…
This.
If Billionaire ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT TAKING YOUR JOB Elon Musk was the President it would be REALLY CORRUPT to label Anything making him Sad Domestic Terrorism!
