Nah I’d say vandalising existing teslas definitely does something. It drives the narrative that this vehicle is a fucking liability and makes it difficult to ignore. I’m not condoning damaging peoples cars mind you, if it’s an older one they might just be caught in the crossfire. Nevertheless, it’s only a car.
Cybertrucks sure, fair game. Brand new Teslas, same. But I'm sure there's decent folk that can't sell their older Teslas today without taking a big loss...
Most people i "know" who drive teslas are not car guys at all, they don't know anything about the whole musk ordeal, they just bought a tesla because these were the only ev's to buy, other than the bolt and the bmw i3 or the nissan leaf or the little honda. And the tesla, just looking at them was the only one that looked like a "real" car.
I'm against wasting, even if it's a Tesla, but maybe in this case it helps avoid wasting a lot in the future..
