> Why aren't there similar stories of people throwing rocks at Tesla vehicles?
Public perception, editor choice, etc. If we were to point out every bit of hypocrisy that is determined by what stories NYT runs vs what they don't, we'd have really long posts.
> There could be a lot of reasons why someone throws rocks at a Waymo vehicle but also thinks Tesla is cool. Ludditism is not one of those reasons.
True. But there can also be lots of reasons why people are very upset at Tesla's approach towards auto pilot but thinks Waymo is doing the right thing. Or think they are both wrong. The presence of the articles alone are not enough to determine sentiment especially at such small numbers. Which is why closed-picture articles aren't fair to use to paint a picture much larger than the individual actors.
