Police Probe Projection of Musk Salute at Tesla Factory
The British activist group “Led By Donkeys,” in collaboration with the German “Center for Political Beauty,” projected an image onto Tesla’s Gigafactory depicting Elon Musk giving a Nazi salute. This action, which is under investigation by German authorities for potential violations of laws prohibiting the use of symbols of unconstitutional organizations, involved the phrase “Heil Tesla” and sparked debate over the nature of Musk’s earlier gesture at a political event. The groups claimed responsibility, stating Musk is promoting the far right, and vowed to continue such actions. Tesla has responded to the controversy, while the Anti-Defamation League condemned Musk’s subsequent social media posts.
