Hey guys heads up

On the Wikipedia page for the Tesla Takedown demonstrations, someone had put "Terrorism" as a "Method" used and approved by the movement. I quickly changed it to alleged vandalism (some destruction of property is occurring, yes, but not terrorism), but if yall can check the page and other wikis relating to American politics for misinformation or fearmongering, please be responsible editors and correct.
They are trying to hijack our stories, our anger, and they have no right to do that to us.
Edit: added some new tags as the more i think about this incident, the more I realize the need for people who can quickly find a source (news article, scholarly, primary artifact, etc) and correct misinformation/expand on ongoing social/political issues. Literally, the correction took me 15 minutes during my lunch break while I was doom scrolling. And it took that long because I accidentally closed out of the app/editing page since I've never edited a wiki page before. So easy. So. Freaking. Quick.
If you got time and were gonna look up info anyway, might as well go fact check wiki. Soooo I'm adding more tags for visibility. I'll look through the reblogs to see if I've missed any. Love ya 馃枻馃枻馃枻

BTW idk if it's just the ADHD or what but like, here's some actual, concrete considerations that would need to be addressed if a charity/company like this existed (*cough cough* or if i started it):
We'd need a legal team that'd be able to draft contracts between us (the purchaser), the Tesla-owner (the seller), and any banks that may be owed payments (related third parties)
We'd also need contacts or contracts with various towing companies since I'm not intending for these cars to be driven. Therefore, they wouldn't need all the insurance that a street-legal care would need. It just needs to get from the seller's driveway to the demolition site. We wouldn't be paying those insurance rates, but the money we'd save would go towards towing and business expenses.
This would definitely not be a for profit company, nah. I just want to legally smash stuff, not make money. Besides, I think making a profit would hurt the political message we're promoting, which is that rich fucks don't always know best and money should not be prioritized over the health and well-being of our communities.
Proposal for one (1) Telsa Problem:
Okay, call me an idiot who is way too generous, but I was raised on this principle: don't give people too much credit. I guarantee, people are way dumber than you think. To be fair, it's not *sheer* stupidity. Humans as a species are hard-wired to consciously and unconsciously make life relatively more comfortable when given the opportunity. Being comfortable in late-stage capitalism means thriving from others' stolen labor. People who can afford Teslas aren't free from this sin. Neither are we.
Point 1: gurl we gotta give some grace to the fuckheads who are now realizing their investments tie them to a Nazi. Yes, it took them wayyyyy too long to get this this realization, but I say be positive. Be glad they're here now.
Anyways, I was watching some videos that talked about how Teslas and Tesla-owners are being attacked due to the growing public outrage towards Musk and his actions. In a lot of these, we hear Tesla owners lamenting the losses they've accumulated since the election and how they can't get rid of the cars no matter how hard they try.
Point(s) 2 & 3: A lot of people want to vent their rage on Teslas. A lot of Tesla-owners want to get rid of Teslas.
My proposal is this: so like, does anyone wanna help me start a charity or campaign in which we'd legally buy unwanted Teslas that had been verifiably purchased prior to the 2025 inauguration (like, proof of purchase or a title or something like that) and allow our righteously angry fellow Americans (or like, whoever buys a $5 ticket or makes a donation) the chance to beat the shit out of those cars like it's the world's greatest Rage Room.
Financial and Administrative Support Needed for the Following Items (nonexhaustive):
Acquiring suitable protective gear (PPE)
Rage Room insurance (the usual stuff a business would have)
Locating and legally securing land for the proposed demolition sites
Training and maintaining staff (first aid, de-escalation, etc.)
Securing funds to pay off Tesla-owners remaining payments (not including any interest accrued if financed with a bank or credit union outside of Tesla or Musk's domain)
Advertisement/social media (like, not much. I can do this myself, actually, but like it is something to consider)
Do I like the idea of paying off Tesla debts? Fuck no. I'm a housekeeper. I've been lower class/below the poverty line most my life. I'm beyond pissed off by the state of our government.
But I can't get ahold of my congressman. He's refusing to hold public town halls, like many others throughout the country. The Trump Administration is drooling at the any and all chances to demonize the American public's justified outrage, and I'm sick and tired of having my voice shot down. Words are not enough, and all of our actions are being weaponized against us.
And, at the end of the day, we can't keep hurting each other when we have more dangerous threats ahead. If buying some rich guy's Tesla and letting him and his fellow angry voters take a sledgehammer to it for an hour or five, if that's what it takes for people to find an inch of common ground, if that's what it takes for me to be able to legally smash the shit out of an overpriced lemon of a fascist symbol, fuck it. I want it.
And I think, deep down, ya'll want that, too.
Intended Outcomes of Proposal:
Providing a legal and effective venue to vent frustrations regarding the current administration.
Allowing previous Tesla-owners some grace and space within the anti-Tesla community (ie most of the sane world rn)
Strengthening ties between the impacted economic classes and unifying their anger towards the actual tyrants that are screwing us all over
Emphasizing the height of the American public's outrage by using newly acquired rage room footage to advertise and reach concerned Tesla-owners and partners who have unwanted Tesla merchandise and stocks.
TLDR: people are stupid and suck and lets all be nicer to each other and legally smash unwanted Tesla cars.
I will be taking notes, thank you for your consideration :)

Brfore hes even talking, there's a quick football-esque chant of, "U S A! U S A!" Can we not treat politics like it's a game and we're on different teams?

One side is clearly standing and applauding while the other sits solemnly

*grumble* time to do my civic duty and watch this fucking address to congress

if you're trying to get into the head of your story's antagonist, try writing an "Am I the Asshole" reddit post from their perspective, explaining their problems and their plans for solving them. Let the voice and logic come through.

I really hate a lot of the advice on the Internet about taming birds.
So much of it is literally "isolate your birds so they bond to you instead of each other" or "clip your bird's wings so it can't get away from you when it feels nervous." I'm no expert, but that's fucked up, man.

Was catching up on the news on CNN when i saw this:

How in the hell do yall only get 200 tips regarding the UHC Ceo shooting. Like, i can't find exact numbers, but 200 doesn't feel like a lot of tips, especially not for a case as sensational as this. People may have been joking that stitches weren't covered by their Healthcare, but we all should all be fine considering how few snitches there are.
The bastard is becoming a new American Folk Hero istfg and I'm still undecided as to whether that's a good thing or not
