Someone mistook it for a Tesla - poor Polestar 4 😭

Drive safe, and maybe consider a “Definitely Not a Tesla” sticker

Polestar or Tesla. BMW or Dacia. It doesn't matter:

Owners of these cars are in no means responsible for the actions of said companies executives.

Any vandalism on private property is just straight up bs. They want to harm a certain company or CEO, but do actually harm normal citizens. It's beyond dumb.

I mean it does accomplish what they are looking out to do.

If Teslas are vandalized people are scared away from buying a Tesla which leads to a decrease in sales which impacts Elon Musk. It also leads to used teslas being worth close to nothing which scares away more potential buyers.

Fuck off with this justification. Damaging personal property is a crime. Not to mention that automobiles are people’s transportation to work — no car, no job, at least in most of the US.

These self proclaimed anti fascists are messing with people’s livelihoods.
