Does anyone else think the “happening in my town of (insert town name here)” is a bot account he set up to blow up small isolated incidents?
Musk: “Civil War is Inevitable!”
People destroy his company’s products.
Tracking devices with car (driving) features*
You know how they demolish bridges that have become unsafe to use?
Well… its the same with vehicles… 👀
Who knows how many lives these heroes have saved.
Seems a shame to waste the batteries though.
Slashing tyres is probably more eco friendly.
“Vandalise Responsibly” isn’t advice I ever thought I’d have to consider but I can’t say I oppose it either.
I love that we have found a way to hurt him, keep it up.
Burning lithium batteries are explosive, toxic and released heavy metals.
There’s a limited supply of the materials for EVs and e-bikes but a huge value in replacing gas cars with these vehicles.
Burning these huge batteries harms people breathing the air in the area.
Yeah, it’d be better just to cease their purchase and let them sit, completely useless. A burnt car gets an insurance payout. What about throwing those giant stickers on the windshield that don’t peel off without ripping and leave a ridiculous mess? There was a Russian YouTube channel where people would do that to people driving on sidewalks.
Bonus money and business for car detailers? Lol
I would agree normally, but at a larger scale, it would cost insurance more to replace everything leading to higher rates and possibly refusal of insurance due to the risk associated.
I thought Teslas (or maybe just the Cyber truck?) wasn’t insurable. I thought that was the whole reason Tesla has to offer car insurance, because regular insurers won’t cover them.
Yeah, maybe. I didn’t know that was a thing, but I believe it
throwing those giant stickers on the windshield that don’t peel off without ripping
I read that in snowcrash, didn’t know it was a real thing.
Waaah, waaaah, waaah…!
More chemicals than a SpaceX launch?
We can be concerned about harm of all scales, not only there greatest harms.
hey what if we used trains with overhead wire instead? they’re better in basically every way, especially someplace relatively flat like vegas.
Yeah I absolutely love the video made by some guy, I forget his name, but it basically lambasted the “Tesla tunnel” in Vegas because for the same amount of money or even less they could have built an actual Subway train.
over a longer distance with more capacity more safety less maintenance cost and probably prettier.
Probably “Adam Something”
name a media person born after 1975who doesn’t know what his cock tastes like, and they have made a version of that video.
Yep that’s the one.
Time and place
genocide? cool and good. black bagging people for protected speech? yeah, pretty fucking cool. letting people die of preventable disease and disaster? yeah, what are you, gay?
but damaging a car? you’re basically the worst thing a person can be.
not damaging a car, what he considers attacking his ego by damaging his worthless scrap heaps. Weight on the word his, as they remain his cars even if you pay for them. he can take control of them or do whatever so you literally can’t even own a tesla, only suck up to musk.
The funny thing is, he doesn’t even feel it that much. His ownership of Tesla is peanuts compared to SpaceX, where the contracts with the government are. Just some food for taught 🤔
How the hell do Elon and other oligarchs feel so safe to call for a literal civil war? He thinks the other side cares more about fighting Joe Bob more than the billionaires? Such strange delusional behavior
Historically, that is how elites have always maintained their power, so yes. It’s just a lot more difficult to 1) mobilize an overworked and comfort-seeking populace, and 2) we are more interconnected than ever before.
The power of propaganda is being seized by the people. We create the content. We cover current and localized events (in actual real time) because it’s our actual communities. We know who is who and what is what.
He assumed his opponents would kill random people instead of targeting his property.
He probably can’t even comprehend a worldview where people prefer to attack wealth over taking another human being’s life.
I was looking for someone saying this. He was envisioning a bunch of us poors fighting each other when he called for civil war. He never thought it would be all of us against him.
It really does show that violence might be the only way to get through to these people. Not that I would ever advocate for such a thing directly myself of course of course. But if this is the only thing that gets their attention, it seems like he’s inviting more of it.
That would require empathy, which he considers a weakness. So he probably is genuinely baffled by this.
I don’t know if he consider that a weakness.
He’s a narcissist and it’s how they work, they just miss empathy and they can’t recognize their errors.
Do you understand what he means with suicidial empathy?
That Gaad professor shows how deep is the rabbit hole Musk fell in. It seems like he follows any idiot who’s is line with his own trip.
We brought him a little taste of civil war. He’s just mad he’s on the losing side.
Elon has done some impressive things but his voice carry’s as much weight as the president. Even more. To call for civil war seems reckless and will stir up the MAGA side. So with all his money and power he isn’t able to form some kind of mediation between all parties. He could be a beacon of reason and peace with his immense wealth. Why choose this path so quickly.
Elon has done some impressive things
The more I look into that, the more I question this.
He has has bought companies that have done impressive things and tarnished nearly to the point of ruin all but one of them.
He wasn’t the brainchild behind any of these products; he was, at most, the person who convinced venture capitalists to invest and the one who bargained with lawmakers to allow them.
I’m increasingly seeing brilliant people who have dealt with him in person mentioning that he has quite sub-par reasoning skills, and we’re seeing more and more of that in the news.
Because MAGA doesn’t respect discourse, only shows of strength no matter how sloppy or feeble
MAGA is also under the false impression that liberals don’t own guns.
Personally i think the level of violence could be a little higher still… Or way higher! Burning megafactories levels of higher.
You know what’s horrific and evil? Cutting Medicaid and social security for millions of people because your billions of dollars isn’t enough money to make up for the fact that you’re a giant man baby.
Your self-driving Teslas literally drove a woman to the sea where it acted as her watery coffin, this was also the sister-in-law of a major Senator of the party YOU support
Can’t imagine what they’d do to people you actually don’t like.
I thought it was a pond on a ranch and she was drunk driving and the primary issue was the doors wouldn’t open so she drowned in the car? There was also recently a Cybertruck that crashed and burst into flames and the doors wouldn’t open so the teenagers inside were burned to death in what could have otherwise been a survivable crash.
The problem is the physical latch is hidden for esthetic purposes. So when something happens that cuts power to the main door release, it’s not easy to find the physical latch.
So for liability purposes they get to argue that those people weren’t locked in, they just didn’t know the safely mechanisms well enough.
In other words, they’re built to kill you and get away with it.
Yeah, I remember this at the time and while a lot of people were relishing the schadenfreude, there was still the perennial point that when UI/UX is any more difficult than it needs to be for a loathesome person, it’s equally difficult for everyone else, too. And when that UI is repsonsible for fundamental safety and it’s overcomplexity results in confusion during an emergency… well, yeah, there it is.
“Oh no, the consequences of my actions!”
