“5 ActBlue-funded groups behind Tesla protests”: Elon Musk alleges Tesla protests politically motivated, names Geore Soros and Reid Hoffman as backers
Elon Musk has claimed that a coordinated campaign is being waged against his company Tesla, alleging that multiple activist groups are behind recent protests against the electric vehicle giant. In a social media post, Musk suggested that the organizations involved in these demonstrations are funded by ActBlue, a major Democratic fundraising platform.
Musk further named high-profile individuals, including billionaire philanthropist George Soros, LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, and hedge fund investor Herbert Sandler, as financial backers of the groups. These allegations come at a time when Tesla is facing growing criticism from activists and a shift in consumer sentiment, raising questions about the extent of political influence on corporate reputations.
