A friend of mine who is a DC comics fan just purchased a Tesla. He’s rationalised everything as “but it’s a good car”. Brother, you just supported real life Lex Luthor while wearing a SuperMan T-shirt…

In other words; there are people out there who claim pure morals while ignoring heinous and terrible things just to have an extra 100km of range. So what the CEO made decisions that will kill millions? The car now has rear door releases! Think of the safety!

just to have an extra 100km of range.

Fake range. They just put a larger number on their screen.

I sent him an article before his purchase of the testing that was done showing most EV manufacturers were lying about the range, with Tesla being the worst. Didn’t phase him at all.

Teslas have the worst safety ratings from every single electric car. Including the largest fail and defect numbers.

What you’re not taking into account is how much you can ignore with the right amount of copium. I do hope for his sake nothing goes wrong with the car but if it does he has no one to blame but himself at this point.

Last autumn I spent the day with a surveyor at work, who believed in the new world order, cancel culture, covid vaccines were controlling our minds, IMF conspiracies, etc etc. Also drove a Tesla.

So he's a right wing nut job who supports right-wing nut jobs, sounds about right

Yup. There were some other comment that made it all quite ironic and I can’t what remember what it was. Should have added that really.

May Saint Kendrik bless him with the ability to hate with his whole heart.
