Summary

Elon Musk called for arrests after posting a video on X showing a confrontation between women and a Tesla Cybertruck driver.

In the video, a woman pointed at the vehicle, prompting the driver to yell threats while the crowd chanted “Shame!”

Another woman called the driver a Nazi.

Musk claimed the incident was part of broader attacks and urged authorities to arrest those funding such actions, saying targeting only “puppets and paid foot-soldiers” would not stop the violence.

    Given that it obviously won’t happen, I have to wonder which particular thing he’s trying to divert attention from.

      Well he’s currently attempting to buy an election in Wisconsin, so you’re spot on.

    You guys are so quick to judge Elon. It’s not fair.

    He’s not a Nazi. He just likes Nazis.

    Get a grip guys he’s not a Nazi. He just really likes everything they stood for.

    Quit calling him a Nazi. He’s just a guy who really really likes Nazis and hitler and being a piece of shit.

    He’s not a Nazi guys. He just likes Nazis. A lot.

    He likes them as much as any Nazi would.

    Can’t a guy just like Nazis and act like a Nazi and do Nazi things without being labeled a Nazi?

    It’s unfair. Maybe you have too small a brain to understand the distinction.

    Elon musk is not a Nazi.

    He just really really wants to be one.

    “It is time to arrest those funding the attacks,” he wrote. “Arresting their puppets and paid foot-soldiers won’t stop the violence.”

    How much funding does he think it takes to get people to protest against the world’s most publicly obnoxious Nazi?

      He’s absolutely the kind of person who would think the only reason anyone would ever act like they hate him is because they’re being paid to do so. He can’t imagine anyone not really thinking he’s as great as he thinks he is.
