SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) -- Anti Elon Musk protesters crowded the sidewalk outside the Tesla dealership in San Francisco Monday. Chanting things like, "Hey-hey, ho-ho, Trump and Musk have got to go," protesters waved signs emblazoned with anti-Musk messaging like 'Don't Buy Nazi Cars," "Our Democracy is Not a Startup," and "No One Voted for Elon Musk."
The demonstration was part of a national day of protest taking place across the country on the Presidents' Day holiday Monday.
"The Bay Area has long known who Elon Musk truly is, and his new venture, his foray into fascism, needs to be stopped," read a statement from the group behind the Tesla protest. The statement called for people to join in a nonviolent rally and "sign holding meetup" outside the dealership, "to let the entire city know that supporting Elon Musk is bad for Democracy, and to remind our entire community that his dangerous actions won't be tolerated."
Organizers called the demonstration a "peaceful action" and said they would not enter the business or stop anyone else from entering or exiting the showroom, which is located at 999 Van Ness Avenue.
The Tesla protest is one of several taking place across the Bay Area Monday. Protesters also gathered outside San Francisco City Hall to protest President Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
Monday marks the second time in the past few days anti-Musk protesters have congregated outside the Tesla showroom. A similar protest broke out in the same location on Saturday.
In the South Bay, protesters also rallied against President Trump in San Jose.
Across the Bay, there was also a large protest planned in Oakland Monday.
