Per this @theguardian.com article, if Tesla stock drops, it affects 1/3 of Musk's wealth. 1/3 is in SpaceX, which is totally enmeshed in the federal government.
We need to find ways to drag down SpaceX.

@theguardian.com covered the #TeslaTakedown protests yesterday, but somehow the @nytimes.com , @washingtonpost.com , @msnbc.com , @cnn.com etc could not be bothered.

Anyone want to get rich??
There’s a whole lot of musk mobiles in my area…
No federal $$s to Space X, Tesla, Neuralink or The Boring Company. Musk needs to learn to stand on his own 2 feet, no more handouts!!
We stop the leveling where we can.
Where we can't, we rebuild.
Then we put the obscenely-anti social-megalomanical rich aboard SpaceX and ship them all out into the deep state of space.
Maybe instead of going to Mars, we adopt Branson’s vision to make going to space more accessible and affordable?
Are those the same people from within Tesla who argued that a judge should not overturn his $50,000,000,000+ compensation as CEO as it would keep him fully engaged in the company?
After that, grind it (and its subsidiary, Starlink) into dust.
Invests in Nova Scotia Space Launch, Canada
I don’t know the detail but I think it’s international not just US
So we need to encourage just boycotting cars but the credits too
Ontario cancelled a starlink contract Boycotting starlink users could help too
putting in our sky?

Merely an observation.
1. Tesla, Inc. - Market capitalization at $1.36 trillion, Musk’s 13% stake is valued at $176.8 billion. Contribution to Net Worth: Approximately 43%
2. SpaceX - valued at $350 billion, Musk’s 42% share is $147 billion. Contribution to Net Worth: Approximately 36%
Take that down, and it’s a major blow.
SpaceX appears to explode on its own.
1) was at the state department, not DOD
2) is apparently part of a large number of proof of concept contracts at State.

Pro tip: if ya gotta light a candle to get heat and light, your little EV is useless.
Nobody uses candles for heat, and using them for light is a bad idea. Batteries that power LED lights essentially last forever
Candles are very much a light source and fire a source of heat. What planet are you from?
Putin doesn't continue conversations unless it benefits him.
If he's too rich to jail, then Russia has officially overthrown the US Government.

SpaceX is a much harder target… but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try.
Convincing foreign govts to boycott Starlink would also have an impact.
This needs to be an across the board attack.
Take Tesla out and dominoes will fall.

There’s a lot we can do individually. Protesting at dealerships and factories is important. His sales numbers are already dropping fast. When his quarterly numbers come out in April, that’s going to be the beginning of the crash.
We just have to help.

Maybe we should mount a campaign to seize the company using Eminent Domain for the public good?
He needs gov contracts to avoid caring what people want. We don’t want his shitty teslas but he’ll have the gov buy $400 M worth.
