ridiculous statement, you can hate Elon and Tesla, while caring about climate change. You may not be aware there are other electric vehicles not associated with Nazis.
Right now, Elon is pushing for changes that increase climate change by supporting the Trump administration. Dealing any kind of social and monetary blow to Elon and his companies would hopefully discourage him from continuing his actions.
Even if 1k burned unnecessarily, it’s No where near as impactful to the environment as the bad decision making a country with a GDP of 27 trillion USD will be making. We passed the largest bill to deal with climate change (Inflation Reduction act) the world has ever seen and now that may all get thrown away because of Donald, financially backed and influenced by the CEO of Tesla. Not only will Donald not fight to combat climate change, his is actively encouraging it by implementing policies that encourage fossil fuel use.
So in order to combat Trump’s lack of interest in reducing fossil fuel use, the solution is to destroy the most popular brand of electric cars, because the owner is of said electric car brand is helping Trump increase fossil fuel use, thus actively shooting himself in the foot.
Are you denying that Donald is encouraging fossil fuel usage and by extension worsening climate change? Are you denying that Elon chose to financially support the candidate that would worsen fossil fuel usage?
Elon mainly makes money from selling electric vehicles, doesn’t he?
Electric vehicles are sold as a climate-friendly alternative to internal combustion engines.
If Trump is vehemently anti-EV and pro-ICE, what the hell does Elon have to gain from supporting him? He’s a capitalist after all, isn’t he? Why would he throw away his life’s work on supporting the one candidate who promises to ruin his entire business model?
This is the dumbest take I swear. If it’s that bad to burn ONE, what do you think happens when you take the richest dude on the planet who directs slaves to extract the metals from the earth to make many more of them a year, the supply chain for which is incredibly polluting, and many of them just randomly do that themselves, requiring THOUSANDS of gallons of water to put out each time, and put him in charge of US govt’s spending priorities?
And just like that, worrying about climate change has become a thing of the past.

Forget climate change, have you considered the amount of toxic chemicals released into the atmosphere by burning down even one of these vehicles?

Make it make sense.
Nobody said Elon is smart.
Are you denying that Donald is encouraging fossil fuel usage and by extension worsening climate change? Are you denying that Elon chose to financially support the candidate that would worsen fossil fuel usage?
How does Elon profit from that?
What?
Okay’, let me ELI5:

Give me a break, you don’t give a single shit about the environment.
Neither do you.

Spoiler alert:
It’s not good (etc.)
Lol what?
To you, apparently. Not those of us who have our eyes and minds open and are actually trying to make positive change.
So you’re saying EVs are bad for the environment in general, or is it only when they’re produced by a particular person?
The time for worrying has passed it’s time to prepare and hold on
