Considering the pickup EV has been an enormous commercial flop, only selling barely a fraction of Musk’s promised 250,000 to 500,000 Cybertrucks a year, there’s a good chance Tesla is using the mercurial CEO’s other venture to boost the numbers ahead of the end of an otherwise disastrous year.

I actually refuse to separate out any of that,

Well, as long as that's your stance you're always going to be misinformed or angry about things.

This is a garbage in garbage out situation.

You've painted yourself into this garbage corner where you can't/won't accept something, and that cascades to your entire view on the topic.

Lmao, I don't agree with your premise for specific reasons and now you want to guilt trip me. This shit might work on your family and friends, but not on some random internet weirdo with a diff opinion.

Kinda makes you look like a weirdo too, that just my opinion tho. Enjoy your temper tantrum.

When the premise at it's core is faulted yes. It's not a guilt trip. It's like people who deny climate change and then base all their decisions based on it being fake. Trying to convince them climate change is real isn't guilt tripping them.

Man i really triggered you by disagreeing with your points! You really have to act like I'm disagreeing with climate change. That's fucking hilarious.

[–] NotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.world 0 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

No, I'm not triggered. I never said you disagree with climate change.

You self said you refuse to differentiate someone buying something and someone being given money, it was just an example.

[–] AWistfulNihilist@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Naw, you're pretty fucking assmad, the example is loaded. Comparing Elon companies to anthropogenic (I'm assuming) climate change is a wild reach. One only a guilt tripping weirdo would try to lay down on some stranger in an anonymous argument. Like you should step back, getting cringy now.

Okay, have a good rest of your day, I didn't mean for my example of not accepting something and it clouding future decisions to trigger you so much.
