Surge In Tesla Protests And Vandalism: Teslas Set On Fire In Las Vegas—As Musk Baselessly Blames ‘Larger Forces’
Forbes ^ | 3/19/25 | Conor Muray

Posted on 03/19/2025 10:34:11 AM PDT by DallasBiff

Tesla CEO and DOGE chief Elon Musk slammed the growing Tesla protests and vandalism in an appearance on Fox News Tuesday night, calling the protests “deranged” and stating “there’s some kind of mental illness thing going on,” hours after five Teslas were engulfed in flames at a Las Vegas dealership in what police said was a targeted attack.

Tim Walz said recently, when he needed to see something uplifting, a pick me up, he checks Tesla stock. He loves it when it drops.

This ends when the price paid to these “protesters” pales in comparison to getting all your teeth smashed out of your mouth.

the way things are going open season on lefty activists can’t be too far away. we’ll be just like europe and their many wars within wars within wars while praying for simple survival every day. too many disparate factions to even have a traditional “civil war” so a Mad Max War will probably ensue. we can all thank the judicial branch for the things to come because they don’t believe in the constitutional rule of law...they only believe in destroying THESE United States of America at any cost. gotta wonder how these “judges” became presidents.

How could anyone say that phrase is baseless?

But the task problem is that the left abs democrats in general are little nazis. Sorry but it’s true. They are intolerant and they support persecuting their opponents.

The lib media is going back to their vax mantra, that all vax concerns were “baseles” or when concerns of plats of bricks showing up during the Floyd riots were “baseless”.

I guess you can see what side Forbes is on. There is no rational way you could say this is baseless. Dem Politicians and their media have been outright endorsing this.

I think Forbes is at least partially owned by ChiComs.

It’s truly bad that journalists insert these kinds of phrases like “baseless” or “disproven” or “debunked”. That is not news. That is propaganda. News is reporting the event and maybe also getting quotes or information from other sources (preferably not “anonymous” sources”).

In this case it is definitely not baseless. “Larger forces” is quite accurate, if vague and non specific. It’s not some kind of spontaneous random event like a meteor strike, and even if it was there would still be larger forces at play! This is some kind of ideological force, a movement, it may or may not be financed or organized or instigated with intent but there is absolutely a larger force involved. Many forces if you ask me.

The domestic terrorism by the left would end in 5 seconds if Bondi, Kash and Bongino came out and issued this statement:

“The left in this country is committing acts of domestic terrorism, apparently they only language they understand is violence so the fix is very simple, for everyone out there who owns a Tesla, if you own a gun, wonderful, if you dont, please go out and purchase one, and if someone goes and vandalizes your vehicle I am giving you full authority to shoot on sight, and we will NOT prosecute you..and for those who are firebombing tesla dealerships, we will find you and prosecute you under the terrorism law, and you will face life in prison in Super Max, and if you end up harming someone during this process we will charge you with the death penalty and execute you, trust me say that and this ends QUICKLY, these douche bags are doing this because they know NOTHING is going to happen to them, if they knew they could possibly die they wont bother
