Modern-Day Peaceful Protest… TikTokers are hunting Cybertrucks—pulling up behind them and projecting anti-Elon Musk messages onto the tailgate. What’s genius: the driver has zero rear visibility & zero idea. The Cybertruck Hunters account launched a week ago and already dropped a dozen videos.

Elon Musk’s AI said he and Trump deserve the death penalty

This is amazing! We all need platforms to securely and anonymously organize, share stories, and be there for each other. Thank you to the wonderful team who's put this together.
