Elon Musk sparked heated debate over his controversial ‘Nazi salute’
Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has been a polarizing figure. His actions and statements often draw criticism.
Recently, Musk was accused of making a salute that resembled a Nazi gesture during one of his public appearances.
Although he has not denied this, he claims it is part of a “dirty tricks campaign” against him.
Anti-Tesla ad campaign
The billboard is not an isolated event. It is one of several signs that have appeared across London.
The campaign, known as @OverthrowMusk, aims to rally people against Musk and his companies.
Many people are unhappy with his leadership style and the direction of Tesla. Protests have also taken place in the U.S. and other parts of Europe.
In addition to the billboard, there are other posters around London. One poster at a bus stop reads, “Hate doesn’t sell. Just ask Tesla.”
This emphasizes Tesla’s significant stock losses in recent months.
Another poster on the London Underground says, “Tesla: The Swasticar. Autopilot for your car. Autocrat for your country.” The language used in these posters is strong and provocative.
Protests are occurring outside Tesla dealerships across cities.
Protests against Tesla have also occurred outside its dealerships. People gathered to call for a boycott of the company.
They held up signs with messages like “Honk if you hate Elon” and “Enough fascist nonsense.”
These protests show that many people are unhappy with Musk’s actions and the impact of his leadership.
Transport for London (TfL) did not approve the posters that appeared on public transport.
A spokesperson for TfL stated that the posters are unauthorized and instructed their teams to remove any found.
They said: “These posters were not authorised by TfL nor our advertising partners and we have instructed our teams and contractors to remove any that are found on our network.”
Musk faces declining popularity and significant business challenges ahead.
Elon Musk’s popularity has declined recently. This decline has coincided with political changes in the U.S.
His net worth and public standing have taken hits due to various factors, including stock market fluctuations.
Many people express frustration with how his companies operate and their societal impact.
People’s discontent with Musk extends beyond London and the U.S. Other countries are also witnessing similar feelings.
In France, for instance, cars at a Tesla showroom were set on fire as a form of protest. In the Netherlands, graffiti denouncing Musk appeared at a Tesla dealership.
Even in Australia, anti-Tesla sentiments are growing, with vandalism reported at a dealership.
