    Wow. Having not read the article (just the headline)… I seriously don’t understand why people torch/destroy other peoples stuff! Yes Elon bad, but why attack innocent civilians?! 10-ish years ago, you were considered a leftist nutjob with a hardon for climate change when you bought a Tesla (note: I do firmly believe in climate change), these days you’re a nazi driving the exact same car?… Debate, discussion, even disagreement between parties is all fine and dandy, but actually destroying other peoples property is - in my honest opinion - against the very thing people ‘are fighting for’.

      because true love is only possible in the next world, for new people. it is too late for us. so they wreak havoc on the middle class. tesla owners aren’t exactly in the same working class that the arsonist is likely radicalized by being a part of. burning the cars send a message to nazis, to elon directly, and to a lesser but still real extent, the petty bourgeois class that acts as the operating oppressive arm of the oligarchy. not saying its right or moral or good or bad for any cause, just likely the mindset of someone who is setting fire to nazi cars in 2025.

        A tesla is well within the range of affordable for a working class person. Someone with a decent job will be making 100k, and it’s not hard to get a Tesla on that budget.

          100k would put you right in the middle class. a working class person is going to be making less than like 65k a year and supporting a family on that.

            Working class does not mean poor. It means people who work for their living. You have frontline manual labor workers who make over 100k and you dare suggest that just because they put in the work to unionize, that they aren’t working class?
