Summary

Elon Musk called for arrests after posting a video on X showing a confrontation between women and a Tesla Cybertruck driver.

In the video, a woman pointed at the vehicle, prompting the driver to yell threats while the crowd chanted “Shame!”

Another woman called the driver a Nazi.

Musk claimed the incident was part of broader attacks and urged authorities to arrest those funding such actions, saying targeting only “puppets and paid foot-soldiers” would not stop the violence.

    Because he’s funding fascism, he assumes anyone against his agenda must be “funded” by someone. He can’t comprehend that someone would be against living in a dystopian fascist hellhole without being paid.

        I was thinking the exact same thing. If you pay a bunch of people to have a political opinion, it must be natural to think that everyone who has a political opinion is being paid.

      Yeah, if you think about it, being a paid protester would be a really fun job, for gleeful jerks like me at least.

      You get to travel around, hang out with like-minded folks on the bus and in new cities. You get to strategize maximum shenanigans and once in a while get on the news.

      Strangely, my search for such job openings has come up completely empty. Guess you have to know some one?
