      Yeah that’s more of a french thing. Us Brits will continue to use tongue in cheek references rather than directly addressing the issue with force. We want a rebellion, just not an uncouth rebellion.

        I’m British-Canadian and when I went back to London I told my British friends how much I’d like to strangle Musk or Trump to death with all the problems they’re causing.

        My friends were like: “you realized you just said take the life of another human being”

        Your comment really reminded me of that lol.

          I’ve thought about it, and I’d totally do it. I would have also killed Hitler if given the chance.

              The consequences, obviously. Why do I see comments like this all over the internet?

              The poster above was obviously saying they have no moral qualms about killing elmo, not that they are ready to sacrifice their own life to accomplish it. Surely, that was easy enough to understand. So in a climate where a lot of people are venting their frustration and rage about this issue on the internet, why do I see people putting in the effort to give this as a response.

          Unironically probably the best way of seeing some action. Just a shame most are too busy eating whatever slop farage throws out.

      As a proud son of San Bernardino I can say you are absolutely right, you’ll get terrorism charges regardless here in the US go for an IED it’s the same charge regardless. Also who gives a fuck if he employs people, GTFO with that “job creator” bullshit. If nobody wanted to work at Tesla because they may get caught in the crossfire then that’s fucken good, if ya can’t get a rope around that sub-human Afrikaner profligates neck then burning down his company is the next best thing.

        So you are for American’s losing their jobs. When these scumbags burn down a dealership what happens to those people that were working there? They need to find new jobs to feed their families but thats ok right?

          This is the most insidious line of reasoning that has prevailed our culture, fighting back against evil corporations is actually bad because the people whose labor they exploit will no longer be employed.

          Look, that sucks, but can you not see that just allowing these corporations to continue unchecked is exactly what lead us to this situation in the first place? It’s simply another way to sow division.

          The obvious answer within the current system would be having robust government systems to assist with finding a new job and ensuring bills are paid in the interim but that’s evil socialism.

          I’d go even further and say the whole fucking concept is rotten to the core

          Isn’t the exploited labor of said employees empowering muskrat to be an evil billionaire? Wouldn’t them working there be an implicit sign they are cool with what musk is doing? I don’t think a single employee of Tesla doesn’t know that Elon owns the company. Right?

          “Noooo, dont protest the oil wells in Bolivia, think about all the Americans who will lose their jobs q.q”
