    Imagine having to resort to violence against a private company just because you lost an election LMAO 🤣

    You guys do realize that by promoting this, you are doing JD Vance’s campaign for him, right?

    The stunlock continues at pace.

      If the major stakeholder and CEO is actively being an unelected politician addressing policy changes onto the public, then repercussions need to happen.

      It would not be wise to show people that they can achieve plutocracy. Plutocrats only lose their power by losing their wealth, so if that’s what has to happen, then that is the plan.

      I’m not from the US, but I straight out recommend quickly educating oneself about military stuff at this point - about fiber guided drones (here in Eastern Europe we like them) and remote weapons stations (we like those too). Because the US is heading somewhere at a rapid pace. Let’s hope it won’t get there (the simplest and most civil obstacle would be lots of court cases and Trumpists losing midterm elections), but if it does, then strongly worded letters will not suffice.

      Trump’s administration:

      “Agency,” unless otherwise indicated, means any authority of the United States that is an “agency” under 44 U.S.C. 3502(1), and shall also include the Federal Election Commission.

      Vance, in his old interviews:

      “I think that what Trump should do, if I was giving him one piece of advice: Fire every single midlevel bureaucrat, every civil servant in the administrative state, replace them with our people.”

      Also Vance:

      “We are in a late republican period,” Vance said later, evoking the common New Right view of America as Rome awaiting its Caesar. “If we’re going to push back against it, we’re going to have to get pretty wild, and pretty far out there, and go in directions that a lot of conservatives right now are uncomfortable with.”

      Googling “how to remove a dictator?” when you already have one is doing it too late. On the day the self-admitted wannabe Caesar crosses his Rubicon, it better be so that some people already know what to aim at him.

      Tesla dealerships… nah. I would not advise spending energy on them. But people, being only people, get emotional and do that kind of things.

      And to go and take it out on people who aren’t involved, just because they own a vehicle. Childish brats.
