I don’t understand the support for this. How is it that someone who’s bought what was - for years! - the best EV available, is getting in the crossfire of musk hate?
Tesla owners might/might not be 99%, most tesla owners I know are if not in top 1% definitely in top 5%, edge of top 5% isn’t crazy rich compared to the other 95%.
That being said most developed places like Germany, these cars must be insured there is a good chance that other than some trouble of going without a car for a short while, Most of the damage is stock of tesla as mor e people would be afraid of buying them.
Well it’s one thing if you bought it a decade ago, before we all realized how much of an ass he is. It’s quite another if you bought it after the reality came out.
I say this as someone that owns Starlink equipment, though the service is currently paused, with no plans to unpause it (since we can no longer work remotely, Elon). Unfortunately, Starlink is essentially the only option for remote internet service, but there are a lot of different vehicle options.
I won’t say i support the hate against Tesla owners per sé. But i’ll try to establish the reasons for wider community anger, and draw the line to the cars.
Musk has had a little army of Muskovites worshipping him as a genius-can-do-no-wrong type for years. Their blind esteem has critically helped propel him to his position, doing the damage he’s doing.
I’ve known one, so i’m speaking from experience when i say it was genuinely hard for them to accept Musk could even be incorrect. They’re very cultish, and should endure approbrium, or at least be ignored a little.
This is of course where the reaction to Musk gets dumb. Tesla owners are probably being targetted, i haven’t seen individual Tesla owners myself have that, but i’m a world away.
I think targetted unfairly, is due to the brand close association to Musk. Its lazy and almost as bad as the hero worshippers themselves, but its a physical symbol of his influence, and symbolism is powerful.

Destroying private property in protest is just stupid. Take on the cooperations, but not the other 99% trying to get by.
