    I disagree, both are engaged enough to show up. Some can’t afford to take off work, that’s the reality in the US right now.

      Then they’re not engaged to show up. Protesting on a weekend doesn’t impact the fascists in any way, so considering that “showing up” in your calculations is nothing more than self-deception.

          No, the sheer amount of outrage at musk and vandalism/burning have been very effective at deterring Tesla sales. The two Hands Off protests have nothing to do with that.

              Okay that’s at least marginally productive, but it’s still not deterring Tesla sales (which can simply be done on weekdays if one is afraid of the protesters); Elon being public enemy number 2 is deterring Tesla sales.

                Weekends are peak car shopping time. It’s not impossible to buy a Tesla, but a lot fewer people are, and the company has been forced to sharply lower prices
