Tesla - a political chess piece? β οΈ
The political war against Elon Musk escalates - direct threats to Tesla owners across the United States. βοΈ
Elon Musk put himself in an uncomfortable position for the public company Tesla when he took on the DOGE role in the Trump administration. πΊπΈ
This has truly turned into a telenovela - and now:
A leak that is shaking the US - a mysterious website called "Dogequest" published a full list of names, addresses, and phone numbers of thousands of Tesla vehicle owners across the United States. ποΈ
But that's not all β the site displayed an interactive map with the exact location of all Tesla owners - and a particularly disturbing addition: a mouse cursor in the shape of a Molotov cocktail. π§¨
The site's clear message:
"Want to remove your name from the list? - Prove you sold your Tesla." π
According to the site, this is a direct response to Elon Musk's ties with the Trump administration β and the protest is becoming more personal than ever. π
And a brief background for those not updated on recent events -
While Tesla owners live under personal threat, Tesla agencies and service centers are also being attacked across the country.
Note the events of recent days -
Shooting at agencies: Several sales centers reported gunfire at storefronts. π₯
Arson: Cases of deliberate arson on new Cybertruck vehicles have been recorded. π₯
Harassment: Tesla owners report personal harassment β damage to vehicles, graffiti like "Tesla get out of here" on car doors - and even direct threats. π€
As the protest turns personal - recent events prove that hatred towards Tesla has moved from the stock market arena - directly into personal living spaces. β
In his new role, Musk is not only dealing with an economic price tag and online shaming for his life's work β but also with a personal and dangerous price tag for the customers of the company he owns? π
- Has Tesla become the punching bag in a geopolitical battle between countries? πΊ
- Will we see a massive wave of Tesla sales due to fear? π»
- Will this struggle escalate to more violent realms? π©Έ
One question that requires much thought - now that Tesla has become a political chess piece - where do you think this will stop? π
