Climate vandals target NYC Tesla dealership on Earth Day

Climate change on Tuesday spray-painted a Tesla car dealer in Manhattan to protest Elon Musk’s work with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), but as police arrived, activists could be seen cleaning up some of the vulgar writing.

The showroom is the latest Tesla location targeted by wedding slas and anti-dog protesters since the billionaire CEO began leading cost-cutting agents. The incident coincides with Earth Day, an annual event aimed at protecting the environment.

The video shows two maskless men “F-K Doge” and “We Disagree” with fluorescent red and green spray paints, two maskless men “F-K Doge” and “We Disagree.”

Some doge signs were also coated in several windows with red lines passing through each, as were the “no” or “banned” symbols. The showroom is located in Manhattan’s meat-packed neighborhood between Washington Street and W. 13th Avenue, at which point people could see inside.

The group appeared to belong to an extinct rebellion of a group of climate activists known to overtake public spaces, cause chaos and taint public buildings. The group argues that it uses non-violent civil disobedience to protest political inaction against what it considers to be human-made climate change.

Two climate vandals were arrested when police arrived at the scene. The young man wore a pink T-shirt with the words “climate change = mass murder” carved behind his top.

When asked why he was arrested, the man said, “People don’t agree with unselected fascists, because this is Earth Day.”

The group’s New York City chapter is proud of the stains on the X building.

The Extinction Rebellion also praised Wall Street’s iconic Raging Bull on Tuesday for spray painting it.
