Kudos? She benefits financially from this little virtue signal.

First she’s going to pick up some new fans that will buy her music, plus the publicity also has monetary value to her. And secondly, because she donated the proceeds of the sale of the car to NPR, she gets to write off the donation from her taxes to benefit financially yet again. Nor does she need to worry about someone vandalizing her property, which would cost her money to repair.

Just another profitable day for a person with a $70 million net worth.

Not so sure about the jokes. I use Arch BTW…

Disclaimer: I actually don’t. I’m too lazy these days.

Don’t be a dick and ruin a stranger’s things just because.

Still, those early adopters weren’t the people making $45,000 a year. It’s not like they can/could afford a new $60,000 car. Anybody buying a Tesla is solidly upper middle class. And often are DINO’s politically. And they can live comfortably if they aren’t too busy trying to maintain an image.

Oh don’t worry, states are already working on mileage taxes for EVs. A few even already have them in place.
