JF García, a New Jersey retiree, was among the dozens who protested in front of the Tesla dealership in the Manhattan Meatpacking district.
“We have a crazy person who is blowing our democratic processes without grades, he was not chosen, he has no idea what he is doing,” he said. “I think your phrase is to move quickly and break things? That’s not how you provoke a positive change.”
Garcia, driven by fear, explained: “I am scared, not for me, I am old, but the people of your age and younger. We are living on the edge of an oligarchy, a dictatorship. If we do not say something about it, we are convicted.”

Where Tesla’s protests became violent
The plan for a day of mass demonstrations follows a series of violent incidents. Anti-Musgo activists have been accused of launching Molotov cocktails in the Tesla facilities in Colorado, Nevada and Oregon and disfigured the Tesla vehicles there, and on Monday, the authorities said they found multiple “incendiary devices” in a Tesla location in Texas.
And last weekend, two pro-muses were arrested in separate incidents in Tesla exhibition rooms: one to get a stunned gun in a protest in California and another for driving towards protesters in Florida.
More than 200 Tesla protests planned this weekend after a series of violent incidents
Tesla has become a lightning rod for violent attacks and vandalism in the months after CEO Elon Musk joined the Trump administration. Now, People who do not agree with the role of Musk in politics hope to channel their emotions to something peaceful: a day of massive non -violent protests in Tesla locations throughout the country.
More than 200 protests are scheduled on Saturday during what the organizers call a global action day, part of a campaign called “Tesla Takedown”. The organizers hope to damage the political position of Musk damaging sales and the price of the actions of the electric car manufacturer, the basis of Musk’s wealth. They have established an objective of 500 demonstrations worldwide, although it is not clear if they will fulfill it.
There have been similar manifestations worldwide since the beginning of February, shortly after MUSK and his government efficiency department, known as Doge, began their aggressive campaign to dismantle parts of the federal government. But the organizers say that Saturday’s events are the largest so far and attract thousands of people in total to the Tesla exhibition rooms, repair workshops and load stations.
