"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."

Fun fact: a replacement windshield for a tesla is on average 1,200 - 2,000 dollars because of their dumb as fuck design
-
Cyberwindshield: $1200
Cyberwindshield wiper: 3 months backorder
Making a Nazi supporter cry: priceless

You're not technically wrong since they were just early to the party with driver assistance & Lane departure warning/avoidance systems, but since the USA made those types of systems mandatory for all cars in 2023, most vehicles 2023+ will now have a similar cost.
-
for context the windshield of a big ass semi truck costs between $65-225 or just 18% at worst or 3% at best
and they're pretty large too
-
For the cybertruck? The design of the others are mostly reasonable, I would assume every replacement part for the cybertruck is much more expensive since it's so fucking ridiculous. I've never had to replace a windshield fortunately so I don't know how much they normally cost.
-
Oh so all that “first principles” design their CEO likes to talk about really just means “reinvent the wheel and sell the prototypes to customers at prototype prices?”
Huh, who would have thunk it?

Gotta be one of the biggest/fastest drops in a company’s stock value since Cutthroat Island opened in theaters.
-
Hey fuck you Geena Davis is a treasure and I love Cutthroat Island and I just want my childhood back!
-
Yeah, I like Gina Davis and I like the movie but the truth is that money never made back what it cost to film it, sorry!
-
-
Oh noo, it caused mass terror throughout the country ... when people saw mildly vandalised pre-shitty cars, PTSD for life.
-
I mean....ok.
that means we can storm the capital and it's ok, right?
-
is this from the Bee Movie reboot?
-
No. Its just the original design of Barry before the internet complained.

Plutocracy: Destroy Capitol? Ok. Destroy Capital? Not on my watch!
-
Remember, Trump doesn't say things that are true - or even things he thinks are true - he only says things that he thinks will benefit him to say. So yes, it benefits him to say Jan 6 wasn't domestic terrorism, and that vandalism of his boss' cars is domestic terrorism.
-
It’s always the opposite with these weirdos.
-
the difference being private property and public property. only one of those is considered sacred
-
How many police officers got killed when those cybertrucks got spraypainted?
-
ALL OF THEM AND THE PERPETRATORS WILL BE HUNTED
no, the footage will not be released, you'll just have to trust the department.
-
0s of them
-
Such a massive number that you could add several zeros to it and not notice the difference.
-
-
-
This isn't even vandalism. Zero windshields were harmed by the paint.
-
great title
-
ohh I see it now...
-
-
-
yeah sums up the vibes on this post. of course fascists are gonna use rhetoric like this to make themselves look good.
what we need is more destroyed teslas and punched nazis.
-
-
Just a lil' FYI: you can use a marker/pen to draw on slices of cheese before you need to toss them "somewhere" and start another piece.
-
Cheese? only use American and only in extremely hot areas.
The real joy is using slices of bologna.
Or, if you want to go hard, get some sponges and soak them in acetone. But that's not for Cybertrucks. They need lemon juice and salt. Just mix up a batch and fill a squirt gun.
-
-
They're clearly destabilizing the countries integrity by checks notes vandalizing cars! Property damage is obviously much worse than actual violence, so long as the property is expensive enough. /s
-
Terrorism only applies to brown or poor people.
If you’re rich you get a free pass to do anything including genocide.
-
It's only rich people who can boycott Teslas (poor folk wouldn't afford them in the first place) so it must be pardonable to boycott! Problem solved!
-
-
Well then, shouldn't be long before we're all terrorists, seeing as this won't be the end of it.
-
Now try living here. No wonder half of us are so cynical
-
I really get the feeling that this is really just insurance fraud. fElon pays some down and out fellow a few hundred dollars then he gets his fancy insurance to write them off as "totalled" pockets the difference and uses it to prop up Tesla as the roof caves in.
-
Why did you vote him in office?
-
I didn't
-
About ⅓ of eligible voters voted for someone else.
About ⅓ of eligible voters voted for him.
About ⅓ of eligible voters didn't vote at all- either because they didn’t want to, or were unable to.
He won by the slimmest margin in decades.
So WE didn’t vote him in. A majority of voters did (by the slimmest of margins). But a lot of that can be attributed to misinformation, foreign (Russian) influence, oligarchs playing the system, and so on. There was a massive influx of campaign cash for him in specific states (from people like Musk).
Of the ⅓ who voted for someone else, the majority of them voted for Harris, and are absolutely miserable with the outcome. The bulk of the eligible American voters you meet on Lemmy probably fall into that category. When you come to them and say “why did you vote him in office?” You’re not asking the right people.
-
That's all true but it doesn't change anything meaningful. All that matters is the end result of the election. People from other countries have every right to ask Americans wtf we were thinking.
-
I truly believe the reason is because even amongst democrats there are still a large group of people who are racists and/or sexists.
-
Plurality, as you pointed out he did not get a majoirty
-
-
Many of us didn't. In fact, many people didn't vote for anybody, and that was a major part of the problem. These people, usually single issue voters, thought they had the moral high ground by not voting between bad and worst.
Trump received the same number of votes as last election, but Harris received significantly less than Biden did last election. Harris wasn't good enough for a lot of Democrats, and they thought not voting and letting Trump win was better than tossing their morals aside on a single issue.
-
That's a shame really. Well I hope he won't do too much damage, before he's removed from office.
