No one. No one is paying anyone. I spoke to a wide mix of people at the protest in Chicago yesterday. They are united in loathing Musk (and Trump). This is made up bullshit from a panicky Musk and Fox News. A lot of nonsense and zero receipts.

Is that really a surprise? The ones that need to be asking the questions are those MAGAts who go there to retaliate. If they actually spoke to the protesters they would hear it for themselves.
This is a great reason to casually mention to your friends and acquaintances that you were at an anti-Tesla, pro-democracy protest over the weekend.
You don’t need to give more details but hopefully it helps inoculate your community from the new big lie invented by Trump-Musk and right wing media.
A friend is involved in funding some organization. But the extent of it is social media, posting Tesla addresses, etc. The crowds showing up is entirely individual. And people honking and cheering as they drive by is spontaneous.
"I steal their pensions, call them lazy, crash their planes, steal their bank info, bankroll the most vile POS ever, build ugly, unsafe cars and rockets that spontaneously combust, give an open forum to Nazis, and heil Hitler publicly. But they still hate me. I don't get it. What am I doing wrong?"

Sales don't collapse with "paid protesters"
Tesla is TOXIC
But yeah, I've never been paid to demonstrate and no political leader I've ever support has told me not to read or listen to the news.
