Just torch random teslas
There was a time people could buy Teslas just wanting to do the right thing and not knowing any better. Some are also public assets that we'd all be paying to replace.
Advocating violent protest is a line I will cross for the right cause, but it also has to be aimed at the right targets. We can't be even taking a chance of eating our own, when there are sacrifices enough to be made already.
Torch random Tesla dealerships?
On Canadian soil, it would still be Canadians losing jobs (faster) and collecting EI (when otherwise they might have gone straight to another job given more time), Canadians paying higher insurance premiums after that industry absorbs the cost, and Canadian productivity spent rebuilding wasted infrastructure.
Maybe the message and damage to Tesla's profits are worth that cost, but I sincerely do not know. Consequently I'm disinclined to form an opinion regarding what others should do, but I wouldn't do it myself.
Next one could be as soon as your next stop light with a sharpie.
Does demo stand for demolition here?
It could if you make it happen

I wonder how spray paint yellow look on a Tesla.
Orange. You can call it a “Trump Makeover.”
