DESCRIPTION:We are taking action at Tesla. Last week we had a great showing in front of 
 the Tesla showroom in Sunnyvale but we need to keep up the pressure! For 
 this event we'll be picketing in front of the showroom, we won't be taking 
 disruptive action.\n\nElon Musk and his lackeys are carrying out a vicious 
 administrative coup against our government that threatens our freedoms, our 
 future, and our way of life as Americans. Time to speak loudly and 
 publicly: NO MORE!\n\nWHAT: A nonviolent rally outside of the Sunnyvale 
 Tesla showroom. Let's show the world that Silicon Valley knows who Elon is 
 and we won't tolerate his threat to democracy! Actions like this one can 
 help to push down Tesla's stock price and directly reduce Elon's 
 power.\n\nWHERE: Tesla Sunnyvale Sales Office, 750 E. El Camino Real, 
 Sunnyvale\n\nWHEN: Saturday March 8, 2-4 PM PST\n\nThis is a nonviolent 
 action. We'll stay on sidewalks and won't obstruct traffic. We won't enter 
 the business, nor stop people from entering or exiting the property. No 
 violence or threats against anyone, or destruction/vandalism of property, 
 will be tolerated. Tesla dealerships are owned by the company, so we aren't 
 impacting a small business, and this location is chosen because of its high 
 public visibility.\n\nBRING high-contrast signs with letters at least 8" 
 high or bigger so that passing motorists traveling @40 mph can read 
 them.\n\nSuggested text for signs:\n\n- Honk for democracy!\n- Don't Buy 
 Tesla\n- Stop Elon's Coup\n- "You're Better Than Tesla"\nThis message 
 appeals to the status-consciousness of the viewer and is a good alternative 
 to shaming Tesla drivers.\n- "Don't Buy a Musk-mobile"\nThis is a good way 
 to rebrand Tesla as tied to Musk\n- "Unplug Mad King Musk"\n- "Sell While 
 You Can (No TSLA)"\n\n\nBe creative, but remember that passing motorists 
 won't have time to read more than three words on your sign, maybe six at 
 the very maximum if at gigantic billboard-type sign size. Please also avoid 
 repeating right-wing frames that bash immigrants. And remember, Tesla 
 owners are not the focus of this action. We want Tesla owners to feel 
 welcome in our movement so we can encourage them to move away from the 
 company, whether that's by trading in their vehicle for an EV from another 
 manufacturer or forgoing service appointments at Tesla dealerships.\n\nTake 
 the bus, or park across the street at the Safeway shopping plaza at 785 
 East El Camino. There's a Michael's Crafts in the Safeway plaza if you want 
 to arrive early and purchase sign-making materials. If we have enough 
 attendees, we can expand to the sidewalk on the Safeway side and get even 
 more visibility along El Camino.\n\n⚡ Sell your Teslas, dump your stock, 
 join the picket lines.\n⚡ Hurting Tesla is stopping Musk.\n⚡ Stopping 
 Musk will help save lives and our democracy.\n\nThe stakes couldn’t be 
 higher. No one is coming to save us—not politicians, not the 
 media.\n\n#TeslaTakedown #BoycottTesla\n
