“Fire it at the Tesla in front of me…” The animosity toward Tesla owners (or Prius or any other EV/Hybrid owner) is stupid. Why hate them?

Because the CEO of Tesla is a massive bastard? That’s not their fault. They may not have even known what a fuckhead he was when they bought it, nor should his behavior influence their car ownership. Plenty of good people work for Tesla too.

Or because they don’t support the gas/oil industry? That’s moronic. As much of a shit goblin Musk is, he holds no candle to the collective evil of the fossil fuel lobby.

Don’t hate someone for their taste in consumer goods. They’re just trying to get through life, same as you.

Now, if you wanna launch that snow drift at a “coal rolling” diesel pickup truck who is intentionally destroying the environment, that’s a different thing altogether.

Yes, because the CEO of Tesla is a massive bastard, in addition to the fact that Teslas have spear-headed spyware for cars. There is no doubt in my mind the cameras on those cars will end up like Ring Doorbells, giving law enforcement unfettered access to footage without a warrant, not to mention the fact they can (and will!) be selling your location data, and anything else they can scrape from you to the highest bidder. Are you a tesla driver who wants to have an abortion? Too fucking bad you're now on a MAGAt harassment list because they bought that information directly from Tesla. Good lord why are we defending CORPOS on a federated platform. FUCK. CORPOS.
