    Yeah I think the truck is ugly as shit and Elon is a piece of shit as well, but I cannot condone defacing someone else’s stuff like that.

    If it’s not your property there are almost no acceptable reasons to touch it without permission from whoever owns it. At least that’s how I was raised.

            Damaging someone else’s private property because of something a billionaire did that has NOTHING to do with them is stupid.

            You people that are not only touching other peoples stuff without permission but actually damaging other people stuff because someone else sucks is actual brain damaged behavior.

              Making someone a pariah for supporting a fascist - knowingly or unknowingly - only helps to erode the support of the fascist.

              If they don’t know what’s going on, when they get their car vandalized they’re going to ask why, then find out why, then sell it, if they have any moral compass.

              Their stuff isn’t damaged and can be easily fixed with a minor inconvenience. They’re not being summarily executed. Calm down and let the people work.

                There’s a guy on YouTube that makes cheap electric wheelchairs for disabled kids. He drives around a cyber truck.

                You do not touch stuff that isn’t yours. You don’t magically know everything about someone simply by the vehicle they drive.

                You will never be morally correct in damaging someone else’s stuff unless they are actively attacking you. You cannot claim that person is actively attacking you simply by owning a thing.

              Protest need action. If you can’t grasp the severity of how rotten the connection between Musk and the Tesla vehicles are to make a bold statement… You’re part of the problem and are supporting the Neo-Nazi regime.

                Nope. I just don’t agree that damaging someone else’s property is alright. You aren’t fighting some good fight. Youre just ruining some random persons stuff because you have some how managed to twist illegal property damage against Joe shmo as a righteous fight against billionaires or something. You’re an idiot.

      I was also raised like that. But sometimes you have to get to their level to fight them

        No there is pretty much zero reason to touch other peoples stuff. You’ve just made up some bullshit moral reasons why vandalism of someone else’s property is ok. It’s not.

          There’s an important distinction here: the Cyber Truck is a $100k status symbol. It is not a good truck, it is not a good electric vehicle, and it is not of high quality. That means the owners have way more money than sense, and decided to buy into the Tesla/Elon community.

          I’d agree with you if this was an older model—maybe this was the best available option, or they bought it years ago and hate Musk today—but a Cyber Truck? No, they’ve chosen a Swasticar.

            You can mental gymnastics and make up whatever moral compass you want. You’re still a bad person or you knowingly touch something that isn’t yours. Even more so if it’s illegal destruction of someone else’s property.

          Vandalism is an age old rite of protest against fascism. If you don’t want to get your shit vandalized maybe don’t buy shit from fascists.

      Of course if someone else on the other side did something like this they would be up in arms about it. I don’t like musk, but doing this to people’s property is NOT okay.

        Can you stop pretending that both sides are the same? They are openly doing Nazi salutes for fucks sake

        They are too short sighted to see the problem with this type of behavior. They believe they are morally in the right and nothing else matters. It’s gross.
