    This is why the planet is fucked, you all whine that climate change is scary but then you cheer on people attacking electric cars just because Twitter man bad. You’re all desperate for tesla to fail because Elon upset you, someone doing something petty that’ll have zero effect on Elon but will negatively affect a regular person fills you with joy because it’s a way of hitting back at the bad man. Totally childish and pathetic.

    Spend that energy learning about and praising positive things, don’t win by tearing your opponent down win by building yourself up.

        Their work sharing battery tech was monumental in starting the market and they’ve continued to really push things forward.

        I understand you have an emotional response to a distasteful man but ignoring reality makes you seem totally unserious and frankly absurd.

          Right, I’m the one seeing things through a funnel of “emotional response” and ignoring the rest of the EV market because of nostalgia and a sense of devotion …

    This is dumb. Sure Elon Musk is a dickhead. And sure Cybertruck is a dumb vehicle that only dickheads would want to have.

    But I’d rather the dickheads be driving a Cybertruck than some other massive vehicle that runs on fossil fuels.

      @SpaceCowboy @return2ozma ~60% of Tesla’s profits come from the sale of carbon credits, which enable other massive vehicles that run on fossil fuels to be built. E-cars are not about “saving the planet” they are pure Greenwash which is saving the motor industry.

    I forgot how cancerous this site was. This place is such an echo chamber that the users are actually defending crimes
