For me one of the key articles about this is movement elder George Lakey's 2016 essay, "Why campaigns, not protests, get the goods": wagingnonviolence.org/2016/10/elec... #nonviolence

What does loss of weather radar do to airplane flight safety? If we lose a lot of weather radars and can't do forecasting, presumably it becomes much less safe to fly because you have no idea what you're flying into?

Here in the San Francisco Bay Area we have the Rapid Response Network, which uses a hotline and a large team of volunteer responders. www.sacredheartcs.org/rapid-respon...

Thanks. We're now circulating your new sign ideas. If you can include even 1 slide of suggested Telsa dealership protest messaging in your March 6 Freedom over Fascism briefing, that could help the nearly 100 sites nationwide that are doing this. Protest map here: actionnetwork.org/event_campai...

We still see plenty of people going into the Tesla dealerships when we do our protests (we don't block the venues), so there's plenty of work for us to do. SF Bay Area is about 6% of Tesla's GLOBAL car sales, so if we can develop effective sign and leaflet messaging, it will make a difference.

My messaging goal has been to link the Musk and Tesla brands with each other and drag both brands down together, along with the stock price by suppressing sales.

I'm with Tesla Takedown San Francisco Bay Area. Does the research offer suggestions about what (very short) messaging we should be using on our signs at our Tesla dealership protests to dissuade would-be Tesla purchasers? One area of focus has been "Tesla unsafe to drive", i.e. user-facing harm.

Per cognitive linguist George Lakoff of _Don't Think of an Elephant_ fame, there is no such thing as "centrism" or "a centrist voter": www.huffpost.com/entry/no-cen...

Here's a printable half-sheet "Don't buy Tesla" flier of scary news headlines suitable for handing out at protests. Print double-sided on white paper, then cut in half. We're using this as a local Indivisible chapter. tinyurl.com/anti-tesla-f... #TeslaTakedown #coup
