    What do you call seven lawyers at the bottom of the sea?

    A good start.

    Still, Teslas are by far the most popular electric vehicles in the United States, and some car owners have said on Facebook groups that they have bought one to show their support for Mr. Musk.

    Well that’s just going to encourage more fires.

    With Musk being one of the ‘top gamers in the world’, maybe we can put this in terms he will understand:

    In Civilisation, when you maintain a happiness score of -5 or more for a long time, your people start rising up and breaking your shit.

      That would imply he actually knows any game mechanics.

    Not the charging infrastructure… isn’t there a better “target”?

      What else is owned by tesla that is easily accessible.

      Many teslas were purchased by people who were unaware, so the cars don’t make great targets.

      Damaging superchargers is an appropriate target to punish those involved in dismantling American democracy.

        Dealerships?
        Musk’s properties?

        Every Cybertruck was sold after the point where Musk was endorsing “Hitler was right” openly and in public. They seem to be a particularly popular target as a result.

        I don’t get why you excuse unaware buyers but then feel the infrastructure they depend on is an appropriate target. Doesn’t it hit them just the same?

        It’s it because there is alternative stations? (Are there?)
