Doesn't it say something about how often Teslas catch fire that a dozen cars burned and their response is "arson suspected"?
- The French really do love to set things on fire though. It's part of their national identity.
Oh no!

Anyway...
Beautiful.
What do you call a dozen burned teslas?

A good start.

I’ll be here all week. Tip your waiter.
- I was gonna say "a severe understatement"
- Pay your employees
- How's the veal?
What fire? Anybody see any fire?
- It's France, if vehicles aren't burning is it really even a protest?
  
  Great great! Carry on!
I’m so tired of peach Mussolini and his lackey Mush that I want Tesla to burn. I would never encourage people to do it, but I get it.

All the nazi and fascistic shit has consequences.
- be responsible! don't burn down buildings or vehicles while people are inside
  
  Yeah actual murder would be a bit of a dick move.
And nothing of value was lost
- That's a bit harsh... matches may be cheap, but they're not worthless.
  
  I'm pretty sure you still need an accelerant, which would be the more expensive part.
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-NAZI-CARS
- I do feel bad for people who bought Tesla EVs a few years ago, before mask-off Elon.
  
  Before or after he called someone a pedophile for not showing deference to his idiotic cave rescue idea? He's been publicly questionable since at least 2018.
  
  I can see your point. Buyer's remorse is real. Although, the cyber truck is an especially easy target because of its high price, low quality, and poor styling.
- Na na~ nanananana~ na~ na~ na, nazi cars are not for meeee
  
  (To the tune of Katamari on the Rocks)
We should be beating up teslas for charity
Now this is more likely to get some jury nullification going. Even more so if you can cast doubt on if it really was the suspect.
I wholeheartedly considered anyone who damages anything belonging to either Muskrat or Turnip, including their bodies, to be a global hero.
- You'd have sang differently if it was your property
arson is ~~suspected~~ encouraged
Fuck yeah!
Does this hurt musk? Or the dealership?
- No. Not in the slightest. All you did was give them insurance write off.
  
  Cars staying with no one buying them, THAT hurts Tesla. Musk? Nah, he's checked out since Teslas and EVs aren't exactly something right gives tow shits about... At least until he needs another payout, but that's not why he became a president of USA for! Infinite money.
- As far as I know, Tesla owns all of their showrooms and service centers. Sort of a point of contention between them and other American automakers that they don't use the traditional dealership model.
  
  I believe that's accurate. Well then, fire away!
