What did this accomplish? This person is down $4,000 and sellers just made money off of someone that isn't even a fan. Sounds like a win for everyone but the person that destroyed the guitar. If I sold my car to someone, I don't give a flying fuck what they do with it. I got paid and it's none of my concern anymore.

It’s like the worst case of broken window fallacy lol.
He’s just made himself poorer.
Like the money would have done more good if he’d donated it.
But I guess that his actual goal was to get attention, since that’s the currency of the day….. and the worst part is that it was amazingly successful.
Like he couldn’t have spent a better $4000 anywhere to get this kind of publicity.
The article states the auction money was going to charity anyway.
Although I guess he could have donated the $4k and someone else would have still paid about $4k for the actual guitar, for a theoretical donation sum of about $8k.
It restored the balance of the ballads to equilibrium
All I can figure is that they wanted to keep it out of the hands of someone who would enjoy it. He'd do the same thing with abortion clinics and immigrants if he had the money to buy them. Well, except the clinic where his daughter needs to go get her abortion and his housekeeper.
That ramble was brought to you by lack of sleep.
4.000 dollars? The seller made 4.000 easy monies?
I'd make and sell another thousand of such guitars if that's what floats their boat.
How much did you pay for the chunk of his guitar? The one he ruthlessly smashed at the end of the show. And how much will he pay for a brand new guitar? One which he'll ruthlessly smash at the end of another show. And how long will the workers keep building him new ones? As long as their soda cans are red, white, and blue ones
Your self-destruction doesn't hurt them. Your chaos won't convert them. They're so happy to rebuild it. You never really killed it. Excess ain't rebellion. You're drinking what they're selling.
An expensive temper tantrum.

Does he live in Mar a Lago?
He sure showed her. /s
