Some North Georgia and Hamilton County residents protested Elon Musk on Saturday afternoon near the Chattanooga Tesla location, as part of hundreds of protests planned worldwide.
Demonstrations were planned against Musk around the globe Saturday in an official “Tesla Takedown” day of action, according to the Action Network organization. It called for people to rid themselves of Musk’s electric-car company stock and join picket lines by Tesla locations.
Musk is a senior adviser to President Donald Trump and has become the face of the Department of Government Efficiency.
While there are “a million issues” at hand, the call to fight against Musk was an easy ask, Katie DeRoche, 37, said, saying the businessman shouldn’t be involved in political decisions.
“Elon is a very obviously problematic man,” she said.
