Hey Tesla don't know if it would work but if I see one alone at a dealership totally going to toss a gas rag in and burn baby burn like Gone In 60 seconds. Ok now that I am a terrorist can I get three hots and a cot for about 4 years, then sue the ever living shit out of the US government? Then buy Reddit or whatever and shut it down and use the rest to promote lemmy.world

Aww, the dot world news mod team is gonna be so happy to know that the FBI is protecting their precious teslas.
Which mostly speaks to why this is "a good idea". People vandalizing swasticars was effective. It was a comparatively low effort action that people could do on their way to work or while out drinking with the gang. And it did an amazing job of putting the fear of labor in all the tech workers who "will just ride out the next 4 years". They couldn't just say "I am one of the good ones" anymore.
So... get rid of that and we go back to "This is horrible and I really do care about whatever issue we think matters this week. But if you worked just a bit harder you would be able to afford groceries so..." that we see EVERYWHERE (even on this site).
I guess a few agents get to slack off for a while rather than actually work. I know if I were in their position, I'd just be "following up on possible leads" for a while.
Honestly, for an FBI agent, it's insulting to be asked to do special monitoring for an unelected official's private business. They have more important things to do.
Getting rid of the dept of ed, cracking down on tesla keying.
Won't someone think about the cars!?
