A Tesla dealership in Berlin was vandalized with blue paint to protest Elon Musk’s support for the German far-right political party on Monday, March 31, Report informs via Storyful.
Video shows a Tesla dealership in the Reinickendorf section of Berlin covered in blue paint, the bright blue a nod to the primary color used by the German far-right party Alternative for Germany or AfD.
The political action group New Generation staged the protest, with members recorded spraying paint. Six cars were damaged in addition to the facade of the building, according to police, who arrested two protesters.
New Generation has staged multiple protests related to Tesla in recent weeks, including throwing blue paint on a showroom in a mall in Berlin and “die-in” protests at multiple Tesla stores in Germany.
Musk endorsed the AfD in recent German elections and has been supportive of the party’s populist and anti-immigration agenda.
Tesla dealerships and cars have been targeted across the US and Europe as Musk has joined the Trump administration and has been increasingly vocal in his support of far-right causes.
