Elon's Antics

[TB]

We walked through this rally yesterday on our way from the hotel to eat supper.

Objections to DOGE lead to demonstration outside Waikiki Tesla

Wonder what right-wingers who hate unelected bureaucrats think of this unelected bureaucrat, the one with more power and less accountability than any other in history.

No, don't tell me, I'm sure they dislike him just as much as the others.

What can you do personally to hold Elon accountable? Here are some steps you could take (I've tried to order them somewhat in terms of how easy it is to do):

• Do not buy a Tesla
• Do not use or repost Xitter
• Do not use Starlink (or I guess T-Mobile)
• Sell your Tesla and Xitter stock
• If you live in a republican district, call your representative to complain about Elon
• Sell your Tesla vehicle
• Do not work for Tesla, Xitter, SpaceX (or any other Elon company). I do not include the Federal Government in this list because Elon benefits from you leaving that job rather than staying.
• Protest at the facilities of one of these companies

Probably there are a few other things to do as well. But I'm not sure how many people in this thread have thought about the ways that they can refuse to support him on a personal level.

On the list of things to boycott, this has to be WAY up there. Maybe not past certain things (e.g. $TRUMP coin, or anything related to Putin or Uyghur labor), but it has to be pretty far up the chain.

Xitter doesn't have any stock anymore since it is private.

Good point.

Lol

Also discussions that Canada will implement a 100% Tariff on all Teslas.

I do admire Ford's approach, if only the rest of the Canadian provinces would follow his example. Trump thinks trade is essential, Ford is showing him that it isn't.
