Lol this guy is apparently also trying to 'go after' people who talk bad about Tesla. Get a grip homie, the people have a right to think whatever they want about whatever company that want. What's he going to do? Arrest people who post negatively about Tesla? And the guy claims he's such a pro-freedom man. Hilarious except it's tragic enough to just be sad.

Not enough people realise this fact. It's not Free Speech. It's Freeze Peach, which is defined as only allowing adoration for the cult.

He's just a guy grown up in apartheid South Africa who wants to call people slurs

Uh, yeah. That's exactly what they're going to do. Trump is already calling Tesla demonstrators terrorists and pushing for charges in that area for simple vandals.
