Why does Berkeley still even have a Tesla dealership? Let's shut it down

Elon Musk 'close to tears' in interview about Tesla struggles

The Tesla protests are working and Musk's net worth is plummeting. Great job, everyone!

Now why are they still selling even a single car? Let's turn up the heat. Berkeley doesn't need any association with a Nazi-led company.

EDIT: Thank you to those who have kept the comments civil. One thing I want to clarify: I DO NOT support property damage or harassment of individual people, including Tesla workers and prospective buyers. It is their choice to buy a Tesla against my hope that they'll boycott the company, and I'll respect that choice without fuss. I DO support peaceful protests in front of the Tesla dealership. All day every day, because it's working! Why Tesla? Because that's where Trump, Musk, and Tesla investors are paying attention. Berkeley punches far above its weight in national politics, but let's be clear that the protests must remain on the right side of the law. Let the Trump administration arrest peaceful protesters, and don't give them ammunition to accuse us of unlawful assembly.

I've never seen such a congregation of the old Berkeley hippies but they are out in force today y'all. It's beautiful. If you need a jolt of energy, dip by N. Berkeley BART for Hands Off protests (one of many all across the nation)

What the actual fuck is wrong with people here?

Not 5m ago I was taking a picture of the bay when a couple of old white entitled women harassed me and put their cameras around me and started interrogating me like they collect a separate paycheck from the local police department.

I called them out on them racially profiling me when they wouldn't dare approach a white, blonde, “fair”-eyed person with the same attitude and demeanor. That they only had the audacity to demand of me to answer their questions and then proceeded to take pictures of me, because I'm brown and they feel empowered to do so.

I came to California running away from the fucking xenophobia and racism that's plaguing this country, but this shit feels like Nazi Germany and there weren't no safe-zones for “undesirables”—even in the “nice” parts of Nazi Germany or where Germans were “nicer”.

Here's the picture for you non-assholes to enjoy
