Demonstrators in Berlin have spray painted a Tesla dealership with blue paint to protest Elon Musk’s growing influence.
In a post by protest group New Generation (Neue Generation) the organisers have said they are protesting the destruction of democracy and the climate by the rich.
They have also said they chose the color blue because of its association with German far-right party Alternative for Germany (AfD), who Musk has expressed support for.
This is the latest in protests against Musk around the world after Donald Trump’s election in the U.S. Musk’s company, Tesla, has itself suffered a stock market slump after its EU and UK sales fell by almost 50% January.
