Idiot.
Blew himself up and harmed innocent people. If you want to make a statement about being anti-Trump or Anti-Musk, there are 5,000,000 better ways. Of course, using an explosion will get you killed or arrested, so if you don't want to share a cell with "Bubba" and be his girlfriend and TP, best not to be arrested.
Idiot.
As for EVs catching fire around the world, the most likely brand to catch fire is BYD. They make a bunch of cars, so we can't just say BYD sucks. When you make and sell more vehicles than other brands, everything is magnified - the good and the bad. It is much more common for hybrid vehicles to catch fire than 100% EVs for 100% ICE vehicles according to the stats I found.
In China, 8 EVs catch fire daily. Nearly 3000 fires every year there. OTOH, Tesla vehicle watchdogs have counted just 232 Teslas have caught fire since 2013, worldwide, about 20 per year. To be far, China has many more EVs than any other country due to the power of the CCP mandates for EVs.

Perhaps another case of an extreme maniac disorder, Trump/Musk phobia?
Donald Trump has not even taken the Oath of office of the president of the United States yet.
I hope this is not a taste of possible mayhem to come.
