My favorite one is this.

I think there was only one that suggests pressing the lock door button. But apparently that’s not a universal feature because most of the suggestions tell him to press a button on the touch screen console

Teslas have killed about twice as many people as the Ford Pinto did at a roughly similar level of sales

I would love to have a source for this, because this is too hilarious to leave to anecdote. doggy-beg inshallah

Google is your friend, but yeah, this was probably true not long ago. From a very cursory search: the pinto sold 3 million units and killed at a bare minimum 27 people. tesla is now creeping up on 5 million total vehicles and 95 deaths from battery fires or autopilot crashes: https://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-deaths

Same ballpark

The difference between a company that's multiple generations separated from its fascist founder vs. a company that's currently run by its fascist """founder""""

It's also the difference between a regulatory state that can still function and one that's been thoroughly captured and hollowed out.
