    I’m curious how destroying Tesla dealerships hurts them. They have insurance, and are reimbursed after a claim. I get it shows how upset and discontent people are with the company. Am I missing something more?

      Several ways, although it’s not enough:

      • insurance rates go up, and eventually will make them uninsurable
      • until the dealership is rebuilt, they can’t really sell cars from there
      • sends a relatively strong message about how hated they are
      • dissuades people from shopping there
      • a point of escalation above a boycott, on the way towards a guillotine for the CEO.
