Local activists made their voices heard at Fresno’s Tesla dealership on Herndon and Palm Avenue, where the peaceful protest resonated with passing motorists who showed overwhelming support, with only a couple of negative reactions.

The protest, part of a nationwide #TeslaTakedown movement, saw dozens of passing motorists honking in solidarity, with only a handful expressing opposition.

Demonstrators urged Tesla owners to sell their vehicles and encouraged stockholders to divest, citing concerns over Musk’s government contracts and corporate influence.

This local action mirrors similar protests happening across the country, as citizens take direct action to voice their concerns about corporate influence in government affairs.
