Rick Wilson, founder of the Lincoln Project, faced a permanent suspension from X (formerly Twitter) after posting a provocative article advocating for corporate pressure against Tesla. Despite the backlash, Wilson remains unfazed, referring to the reaction as 'moral panic'. His article encourages peaceful actions such as protests at Tesla showrooms and pushing for shareholder lawsuits to make the Tesla brand socially toxic. Wilson argues that Musk's wealth is tied to Tesla's stock price and suggests that dismantling this bubble would weaken Musk's influence on politics and social media.
Wilson noted that while the article's headline and image were provocative, the core message was about peaceful corporate pressure to diminish Tesla's market power.
He emphasized the importance of raising public awareness on Musk's controversial behavior, suggesting protests outside Tesla showrooms could deter potential buyers.
