Telsa owners are getting creative as protests against the car and its founder, Elon Musk, accelerate.
Last week, protestors across the country targeted Tesla dealerships for a ‘Tesla Takedown,’ aimed at Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who has angered many people with his government policies, including calling social security a ‘Ponzi ‘ scheme, continued right-wing postings, and polarizing figure in implementing Trump’s agenda.
In an effort to distance themselves — and protect their cars from vandals — owners have gotten creative with bumper stickers that read things like :
Some Tesla owners removed the Tesla logos from their vehicles, replacing them with badging from other automakers and even using projections on a Cybertruck in one case.
A Tesla Cybertruck projecting images on its tailgate has been spotted several times in the last week.
It displays pleas not to graffiti the vehicle and adds things like “this truck already makes me look stupid enough.”
The short video is signed “Mussk production,” with the “ss” referencing the Schutzstaffel, a Nazi paramilitary group.
