I love that you were downvoted, for all we know your previous vehicle was a Daewoo or something. A Tesla is likely a better quality vehicle than a Daewoo.

You sound like a forbes article

Edit for clarification. My comment was intended to a be a bit tongue in cheek and its because of this part of the top comment that i made what i thought was clearly a light hearted joke. Sorry if it wasnt so obvious

The article is less about informing and more about crafting a narrative that fits a preconceived notion, all while skating on thin ice made of half-truths and strategic omissions.

In response to the assertion of owning a Daewoo. I assumed your comment i replied to was also referencing this quote

Lemmy is pretty toxic. There are 5 opinions allowed on here and your personal experience is irrelevant.

Pretty much. I'm looking through the replies I've received, and one says, "You sound like a forbes article" with two upvotes and only one downvote. Why would I continue to contribute to this community if that's how people are going to act?

There’s a small center of people who are actually knowledgeable and courteous here. You just have to wade through the shit and sewage to get to it.

Yeah, and I need to get back to blocking people. The signal improved drastically when I was doing that a while back.
