A protest against Tesla took place in Manhattan with about 50 attendees rallying against Elon Musk's actions, particularly his efforts to dismantle parts of the federal government. This protest was one of many occurring nationwide under the campaign labeled #TeslaTakedown, which originated as local grassroots efforts. Protesters are committed to continuing these demonstrations in response to perceived inaction from Democrats. The events show increasing participation, with over 65 protests listed, and growing international interest in the movement, reflecting broader concerns over Musk's influence and corporate behavior.
"The movement is largely grassroots, lacking any clear leader or organizational structure. Joan Donovan, noted disinformation researcher, is credited with starting the hashtag."
"Protesters say they intend to keep showing up, no matter how long it takes, as they see it as the only real outlet to fight back against Musk's actions."
