A new poster mocking Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who is also an adviser to U.S. President Donald Trump, appeared in a London advertisement space in late February 2025, specifically at a bus stop on the corner of Pollard Row and Bethnal Green Road. The poster showed Musk extending his right arm while standing with a Tesla vehicle, with text mentioning the Nazi Germany-associated swastika symbol and 1939 — the year Germany invaded Poland, starting World War II.

The poster read: "Goes from 0 to 1939 in 3 seconds. Tesla. The Swasticar."

Fuck Elon Musk, and Fuck Tesla, been saying this for years now. Also, Volkswagen Mercedes & BMW used Jewish slave labor in Auschwitz and other death camps to make their automobile and airplane parts, and shouldn't even exist anymore, but they do.

History, example, so much fun huh, too bad nothings learned. Everyone's so anti Nazi these days, so few are pro Jews to the point of needing to exclude Jews from the entire conversation. As a Jew, It's been a pretty incredible thing to watch happen realtime.
