During the presidential inauguration of Donald Trump in the United States, Elon Musk made gestures that were compared to a “Nazi salute”, generating significant backlash and criticism towards Tesla, the company he leads as CEO.
Musk’s support for Germany’s alternative right-wing political party sparked debates about the country’s focus on past guilt.
As a result of the controversial remarks, Tesla owners have faced criticism and even vandalism on their cars.
On the social media platform X, which was acquired by Elon Musk in 2023, posts surfaced denouncing behaviors associated with extremist movements, such as the inscription of the word “Nazi” on a Cybertruck.
“Got a Tesla? Maybe it’s time to reconsider,” posted an X user. “Someone spray-painted this on a Cybertruck after Musk made the controversial gesture.”
