Summary

A fire at a Tesla dealership in Rome’s Torre Angela district early Monday destroyed 17 cars and damaged the building. No injuries were reported, but investigators are exploring multiple causes, including arson.

The incident follows recent Tesla vandalism in Rome amid rising backlash against Elon Musk’s leadership and cost-cutting at DOGE.

Tesla has faced arson, protests, and boycott calls across the US and Europe.

The company’s stock fell 5% Monday, down 34% this year, with sales dropping sharply in both the US and Europe.

    There’s that darn 4th branch again, trying to manufacture the thoughts we think.

    10 years from now, I hope we all remember how EVERY SINGLE mainstream news outlet refused to call what Musk did a Nazi salute. I hope that we can all see that they work solely for the billionaire class. And I hope that we can still see all that, even when they’re “on our side”.

    Fuck America.

      That’s why it was so shocking when a judge recently compared them to Nazis, and even implied that the Mazis were kinder! Unfortunately, many MAGA Trairors woumd be proud of that.

      Also, I have NEVER heard a news personality call any of them Traitors, despite an Insurrection, the False Electors Plot, hundreds of stolen classified documents, turning against our allies, smooching the world’s worst authorities, etc.

      By any objective measure, Agent Krasnov is the most prolific traitor in American history, more than all other American traitors COMBINED.

      And yet not one talking news head has ever called him a Traitor.
