Activists label Tesla cars in London with controversial stickers to criticize Elon Musk

newsweek.com

Activists from the group 'Everyone Hates Elon' have placed stickers on hundreds of Tesla cars in London, labeling them as "swasticars." This campaign aims to criticize Elon Musk's perceived support for far-right movements. The stickers reference a gesture Musk made during Trump's inauguration, which some interpreted as resembling a Nazi salute. A recent survey shows that 71% of people in the U.K. view Musk unfavorably, an increase from previous months. The campaign, launched on Sunday, is expected to raise over £50,000 for anti-racist and anti-fascist organizations. Activists have also turned Musk's tweets into donations for various causes.
