Whoa now. Some people bought their teslas an indeterminate period of time ago and are now afraid that people will look down on them for it or they’ll have to file an insurance claim. And even putting a “I bought this before he went crazy” bumper sticker on the back to show ANY form of solidarity is a personal attack on them.

And that is obviously the real issue. Not the people who chose happiness and transitioned to their actual gender identity and are now afraid that they’ll be violently assaulted for it. Or immigrants who are afraid they’ll have their visas or permanent residencies revoked and get deported to a random country. Or, you know, anyone who cares about any of those issues and are worried that the rest of the planet will hold them accountable for the horrific crimes coming out of our government.

But nah. This shit is the real issue. Gotta protect those purchases. Protesting is good so long as it doesn’t impact anyone who matters. And this is the kind of shit where people will complain that it is a waste of government resources and how it only serves to protect musk’s interests. All while they quietly are happy because it makes them feel safe and snuggly.

That’s not true at all. A Trump swallower drove his Nissan Pathfinder into a protest crowd, and another shot protesters with a taser. People are getting hurt alright.

Terrorist acts don’t have to directly hurt anyone. Terrorism is meant to invoke terror.

Burning a cross is terrorism, but doesn’t directly hurt anyone. It’s meant to send a message.

This is not the same as burning crosses, and I don’t believe it’s terrorism, but the point stands.

Oh, they’re terrorized. This is the worst thing they’ve ever experienced. That’s who we’re dealing with.

Because they’d arrest 90% of the government if it continued.

Corporations over people. Capitalism over community. That is the American way.
