Polestars far surpass Tesla especially in terms of build quality. That has nothing to do with China, and everything to do with Tesla cutting corners.

Oh no, downvotes! Those are surely much worse than a very expensive car that is super unreliable and has panel gaps from the factory line.

You're totally right, it's gotta be a circlejerk. Even review websites like Consumer Reports are joining in on the circlejerk. It can't be that the product is bad or anything like that, they must just hate Tesla to hate Tesla!

completely ignoring that maybe some users are actual owners that now hate their purchases

Every Tesla I've had the 'pleasure' of either driving or being a passenger in had massive panel gaps and issues with the interior. Not to mention the last Model S I drove broke down after going through a canyon. I don't dislike Tesla because of Musk, I dislike them because they have very poor QA for their price.

Why would you use WhatsApp in the first place?

Glad I could make you feel small enough to turn to personal insults.

So you agree that calling everyone you disagree with a tankie is pointless and exhausting?

BYU is always on the racist/sexist side of things, along with a large chunk of the population there. Check out Utah's demographics from census.gov:

• White alone, percent - 90.0%
• Black or African American alone, percent - 1.6%
• American Indian and Alaska Native alone, percent - 1.5%
• Asian alone, percent - 2.8%
• Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander alone, percent - 1.2%
• Two or More Races, percent - 2.9%
• Hispanic or Latino, percent - 15.1%
• White alone, not Hispanic or Latino, percent - 76.7%

For BYU, while the share of White students is overall lower compared to the state, there is an even smaller share of Black students, with the Dept. of Education reporting 0% Black students (this doesn't mean there aren't any, but it shows how few Black students there are):

• White alone, percent - 81.0%
• Black or African American alone, percent - 0.0%
• American Indian and Alaska Native alone, percent - 0.0%
• Asian alone, percent - 2.0%
• Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander alone, percent - 1.0%
• Two or More Races, percent - 4.0%
• Hispanic or Latino, percent - 7.0%
• White alone, not Hispanic or Latino, percent - 81.0%

Growing up in Utah, it's like you're in a bubble. Barely any diversity, the Church controls the government, and behind-the-back racism and discrimination is the norm. It's a state I'm very glad I was able to escape.

See: Democratic People's Republic of Korea

Yeah. If they gave a shit about their kids, they wouldn't vote against education like they have their entire lives.

Idk, dude. Seems pretty fucking pointless and exhausting to me.

He'll never regret it, he'll just blame those around him until another scapegoat is found.

Huh? If you use "tankie" for everyone, no one is a tankie. That has nothing to do with this.

--style=plain will do it!

Fair, but you could just donate instead, no?

I use bat as a drop in replacement for cat (overriding cat in my .zshrc) by using --style=plain --paging=never on the bat command. Basically looks and works the same as cat, except with syntax highlighting.

Fingers crossed. If they were able to eat plastic as thick as a water bottle that would be a game changer.

When I was was a teenager, I sure understood what racism was. You didn't?

Damn, would be a shame if you got put into prison indefinitely while we wait for reform to come.
