How do you just “reclaim” a vehicle, especially one with all these software and hardware dependencies. I don’t know if a stolen Tesla is worth anything at the moment besides scrap.
Sure, it’s a waste of resources, but those resources were never going to help anyone so it’s not really wasted.
It’s not because we value the wrong thing. It’s because of basic laws that protect us all.
How could they be reclaimed? They are owned by somebody who legally owns them. Unless the owner is found guilty of something that entitles the government to take possession then there’s no legal way to do that.
If someone is going to reclaim it illegally they’re also not going to use that money to help people. You don’t get many Robin Hoods so the criminals that do it are most likely to keep the proceeds for themselves.

Keep in mind this article is about Teslas in Germany, where expropriation is legal if a judge deems it to be for the greater good. But that’s only really possible in theory and thus far doesn’t happen in practice
The fuck? It’s illegal to burn these cars too, smart person.
I guess that you didn’t finish reading my comment as I pointed out that those that are willing to reclaim them illegally are extremely unlikely to do anything altruistic with the money.
What do you mean “taken them”
Do you think Elon just sells the cars and gives the money away?
Or are you talking about stealing the cars? What do you think can be achieved with that? The car will be found eventually and returned. The person who bought the stolen car lost their money and politically you achieved nothing.
I like your how nonsensical trying to connect unrelated things together, did you forget your meds. How do you propose to acquire something owned by some else that doesn’t belong to you
Okay you go convince the government to re-appropriate Tesla. While you’re doing that for the rest of your life everyone else will keep burning them to actually get something done.
What do you call it when half the Teslas in a showroom are on fire?
A good start.

If that’s what the money was being used for Teslas wouldn’t be getting torched.

If someone steals it, now they have a car that can be used as evidence against them in court.
Nice fantasy. But no, that was never going to happen in real life.
Now there’s a clear message in international headlines, and one heard by those trying to profit using Tesla.

I don’t think that’s how most car showrooms work, let alone Tesla showrooms.

They work by giving all the money to Elon Musk, who needs it less than anyone on the planet except Jeff Besos.
The point wasn’t to make the showroom work though. It was to make the showroom not work, and fire does that job wonderfully.

You’re correct, this course of action wouldn’t harm Elon Musk at all.
But I think you’re mistaking the user you’re talking to for something other than a right wing troll trying to sound like they care about poor people.
That’s a great idea… if that was ever done in the history of the world… ever

Ok boomer
Kids in Africa could eat those cars!
