Summary
Elon Musk called for arrests after posting a video on X showing a confrontation between women and a Tesla Cybertruck driver.
In the video, a woman pointed at the vehicle, prompting the driver to yell threats while the crowd chanted “Shame!”
Another woman called the driver a Nazi.
Musk claimed the incident was part of broader attacks and urged authorities to arrest those funding such actions, saying targeting only “puppets and paid foot-soldiers” would not stop the violence.
arrest those funding such actions
Wait, we can get paid to laugh at cybertrucks? And here I am doing it for free like a sucker.
That’s right. Setting fire to Teslas is OK so long as you do it for free!
Idk about you, but I had the best first IRL interaction. I love an a small town and had one pull up to me at a stop light. I immediately started belly laughing, and my shit carries even when I don’t intend it. Heard some sort of quick beep almost immediately when I started. I hope I see myself online someday.
What kind of lameass story is that?
Quit screwing around and flip them off like a proper adult.
Now this actually happened I assure you. Pretty sure I still got the dash cam footage, but you’re just going to hear the laughter and beep.
But you know, good job sounding like a dick. You must be a blast at social gatherings.
Post it.
Won’t be holding my breathe waiting for to apologize prick 🖕
Oh shit OP delivered guys.
It had some kind of siren/PA or something and honked at you because you laughed at it? Now that I’ve seen video evidence that’s actually so on brand for a Musk fanboy.
Yeah, I watched it after posting and figured out it was the cop probably giving him a compliment. If you keep watching you see a sheriff in the far right lane two lights later. But I only had my driver side windows down so it reflected off the side of the cyber truck.
I am still waiting on my soros bux for hating on trump in 2016
It’s always projection with those assholes.
Given that it obviously won’t happen, I have to wonder which particular thing he’s trying to divert attention from.
Given that it obviously won’t happen,
I’ll just put that on my overflowing inbox of things that obviously won’t happen, which is right next to my overflowing outbox of things that obviously won’t happen but did anyway.
Well he’s currently attempting to buy an election in Wisconsin, so you’re spot on.
“It is time to arrest those funding the attacks,” he wrote. “Arresting their puppets and paid foot-soldiers won’t stop the violence.”
How much funding does he think it takes to get people to protest against the world’s most publicly obnoxious Nazi?
Seems like something a person trying to buy votes would say.
He’s absolutely the kind of person who would think the only reason anyone would ever act like they hate him is because they’re being paid to do so. He can’t imagine anyone not really thinking he’s as great as he thinks he is.
He also loves money and has no principles. People doing something because they have values is just not something he understands.
I mean, the pathology goes so much deeper.
Musk’s family hates him. Like they actively go out of their way to speak against him. His father tweets shit about him, his grown children want nothing to do with him but will speak out against him, his ex… Well you could fill a book with that. His mother and his youngest child (who he uses like a prop) are the only ones that haven’t publicly worked against him
What friends does he have? His billionaire buddies will make moves with him, but we’ve seen the text chains - it’s all business. They barely react when he goes against his word… They congratulated him for buying Twitter himself after making plans to go into it together that he backed out of - no way that wasn’t a backhanded compliment
Trump hates his guts… But sucks up to him. What friends does he have? He has sycophants, he has people eager to use him… But every relationship he has is based around the fact he’s the richest billionaire. If he loses that, what does he have? Who does he have?
TLDR:
He has to pay people to pretend to like him, so he thinks the people who hate him have been paid too.
Deep down, he knows, and it torments him. Unfortunately he’s rich enough to take it out on the world.
Imagine how CORRUPT this would be if Elon Musk had Control over our FBI, our President and our Military! That would be EXTREMELY CORRUPT! Fortunately that’s NOT the case!
Wasn’t cyber tuck supposed to be a battery powered light tank chassis? Why are these punks scared of an old lady’s finger?
if it were a tank it’d be cast iron and rusty
They are already rusty, so halfway there.
The front can fall off.
And the sides. It’s typical.
And the bumper according to whistling diesel.
I’m with this guy - if I see someone towing with one of those, I’m going to stay away:

Its a good thing we have Elon protecting free speech. What a fucking sham.
But was she screaming the hard-R N-word into the face of a black guy? No? See? That’s “real free speech” is! We may never know how many harmless but funny pranks and jokes were lost to being potentially called “racist”, which should be also illegal.
— Elon Musk probably
it’s reddit-mod level free speech
Didn’t you hear, only billionaires with media companies can afford free speech now.
We can say whatever we want; they just delete it. And probably shoot microwaves at your house lol.
No one on the right ever gave a shit about free speech. They don’t care about actual freedom in general, either. They want to own people. It’s the Southern idea of “freedom”.
arrest those funding those actions
Every accusation is a confession.
Of course this isn’t an Onion headline.
Musk: comedy is now legal Also musk: flipping people off is not
Why not just ban Tesla and cyber trucks since they are offensive to people eyes, are linked to a Nazism and provoke violence.
The Cybertruck would be done for in the blink of an eye If the NHTSA had balls and treated it fairly in response to its disastrous statistics.
That reminds me, I have to sharpen my guillotine.

Mama mia! What has the world come to?
I’m so confused as to why someone would downvote your comment. I guess they think you’re trying to shut someone down or something? Like you just mentioned it is risky, I assume because it has happened to you, which is good to know
deleted by creator
I guess maybe. It’s just still odd though. Like you weren’t really making a political point. Maybe they’re just downvoting all your comments? I dunno just strange
deleted by creator
I guess it is a double edge sword of lemmy. One could write a script to have the voting power of ten people really easily

Also, you know you’re doing something right when you get brigaded haha
Let’s go through elons post history and arrest him for every bad thing he’s said about liberals or anyone else. Remember that pedo comment he made? Arrest him for it.
high profile non binary, non white, non male identified people deal with actual life threats on their life just for existing.
Meanwhile here’s a white cisdude with billions worried about some woman pointing in a general direction.
Elon’s self esteem is the strength of soft tofu. it’s not for the world to walk on eggshells. He needs to get some actual real therapy cuz this isn’t managing at life.
A good criminal justice system ought to have comprehensive mental health services as part of the goal of rehabilitation. Therefore, for his own good, he should be in prison and we should reform the prison system.
I cannot wait till someone gets pissed off enough to shoot this motherfucker
who’s not pissed off enough for that now? i can’t wait until someone grows a pair.
Not sure why you got downvoted.
I’m not a violent person—I want peace. But if the quickest path to it, with the least bloodshed, is removing this idiot, then so be it.
some people think the newport folk festival is on the edge of peace. others are ready for dylan to go electric.
Didn’t know what you were talking about so I looked it up. Nice reference!
the scene from “a complete unknown” really hammers the point home.
pete seeger: “we’re so close to peace”
dylan: “they just killed JFK and Malcom X”
I got you boo! I’ll fund your gofundme for a great lawyer.
[Elon glances at GoFundMe suspiciously]
(Elon buys GoFundMe)
Id really consider it I weren’t foreign to the US. Really really bad look for my whole country if I did anything. But if USA invades us then I’m absolutely going to try.
I’m hopeful I’ll be so popular after that no lawyer will be required 🤞
