      Nazi-themed events continue following Elon Musk’s controversial salute last month.

      In Massachusetts, a Supercharger station was found with swastikas and hate speech chalked onto the ground.

      Tesla owners are also facing harassment; one individual reportedly discovered an offensive sticker on their Cybertruck.

      Authorities in Massachusetts are looking into the discovery of swastikas and "hateful graffiti" near a Tesla Supercharger station. On February 11, the Tyngsborough Police Department responded to the site and found the derogatory messages marked in chalk.

      During their investigation, officers came across two swastikas and multiple phrases, including "normalize hate." The police do not believe this incident was captured on security cameras and could not identify any witnesses at the location. However, they managed to clean the chalk off using hot water.

      Furthermore, a Tesla store in Loveland, Colorado has been targeted multiple times, and the latest incident involved an attempted arson, several vehicles being spray-painted, and “Nazi Cars” graffiti. An anti-Nazi group has also allegedly threatened to damage Tesla vehicles in California.

      Tesla owners are increasingly feeling the impact, with some expressing concern about becoming victims of hate crimes. Dr. Kumait Jaroje shared his experience with several news outlets in Massachusetts, stating he’s being targeted for his gold Cybertruck.

      Earlier this month, someone is said to have placed a “profane sticker” on his truck, and he received threats after posting a photo of the vehicle online. He told CBS News Boston about instances of being cut off and receiving offensive gestures. Jaroje expressed feeling “anxious and nervous” for his and his children's safety.

      The messages observed at the scene included "Normalize hate" and references to goose stepping, the high-legged marching style often associated with Nazi soldiers.
