In a striking display, campaign group Led By Donkeys projected a 10-minute video onto the walls of Tesla’s European HQ in Amsterdam. Their goal? To reveal how Elon Musk transformed from a quirky tech billionaire into one of the most powerful—and, some say, dangerous—men in America.
From Tesla Guy to Presidential Salutes
A few years back, Musk was just the Tesla guy with a passion for rockets and space travel. Now, he’s doing Nazi salutes at US presidential inauguration events, championing far-right figures like Tommy Robinson, targeting British ministers on social media, and securing a top advisory role in Donald Trump’s new administration.
Led By Donkeys’ video highlights how Musk’s takeover of Twitter (now called X) in 2022 paved the way for him to amass even more influence, eventually playing a major role in Trump’s recent election victory.
“Don’t Buy a Tesla”
In the clip—projected boldly onto Tesla’s Amsterdam office—the group chronicles Musk’s rise and recent controversies, before bluntly concluding:
“This is who Elon Musk really is. Don’t buy a Tesla.”
Whether you see Musk as a visionary or a threat, Led By Donkeys’ searing exposé is sure to fuel the debate on his ever-expanding influence.
