Summary
A fire at a Tesla dealership in Rome’s Torre Angela district early Monday destroyed 17 cars and damaged the building. No injuries were reported, but investigators are exploring multiple causes, including arson.
The incident follows recent Tesla vandalism in Rome amid rising backlash against Elon Musk’s leadership and cost-cutting at DOGE.
Tesla has faced arson, protests, and boycott calls across the US and Europe.
The company’s stock fell 5% Monday, down 34% this year, with sales dropping sharply in both the US and Europe.
I think it’s quite telling that they’re likely considering the strong possibility that these wonderous marvels of cost-cutting may have just spontaneously lit themselves ablaze without help, at rest, in a parking lot.
For a majority of other vehicles, that’d be an absurd conclusion. But Teslas contain a baffling amount of greed-motivated engineering and numerous fire incidents. It isn’t talked about enough and I see more of these things by the day. There has to be some kind of “reputation management” going on.
Either way, ::: spoiler remember kids! If you see someone setting an unoccupied swastikar ablaze… No you didn’t. :::
I bet all these fires are of the result of Elon Musk remotely catching them on fire. Which means two things. One he is losing money and needs a insurance payout. Two he is planting these as false flags in order to further trump agenda. They already want to label anyone who even vandalizes a tesla as a terrorist. Musk is doing this and its fucking terrifying how trump reacting.
“Engage Insurance Protocol X!”
There’s a plausible case where either a very stupid OTA software update or a faulty charger could in fact cause a bunch of them to catch fire at once.
