On Saturday, thousands protested worldwide against Elon Musk's influence in dismantling the U.S. federal government through rallies at nearly every Tesla showroom. Organizers urged the public to boycott Tesla, divest from its stock, and join the "Tesla Takedown" movement, highlighting that damaging Tesla directly impacts Musk. Despite his claims of minimal job cuts, backlash mounted over his budget-slashing policies affecting key government agencies. The protests united voices across various countries like Australia, New Zealand, and several European nations, signaling widespread discontent and a collective call for action against perceived threats to democracy and social welfare.
It's too overwhelming to do nothing, said Louise Cobbett-Witten, who has family in the US and was protesting at the Tesla dealership in west London. There is real solace in coming together like this.
Hurting Tesla is stopping Musk, reads one of the group's taglines. Stopping Musk will help save lives and our democracy.
