  • The obvious response would be that customers deserve to buy vehicles from the manufacturer without dealing with middleman stealership BS. Under your definition, American Eagle jeans has a "monopoly."

  • ? Forcing Tesla to sell through dealers instead of direct-to-customer would eliminate the licenses. I'm confused about what you think "transferring the licenses [to dealers]" means, if not "Tesla can no longer sell direct."

  • Dispite my comment below yours, I also disagree with what NY is doing here. I think the most innovating thing Tesla ever did was normalizing direct-selling to customers. It's part of the reason why I (regrettably) defended the company/cars so long even if I knew Musk was a POS for years. Dealerships are horrible for consumers.

    This reads like auto dealer lobbyists getting what they want being passed off as "progress".

  • Imagine being such a dumb power-hungry Nazi you tank your entire EV company, the highest valued auto brand in history, bankrolling the guy/movement who promised to get rid of EVs. Seemingly very little "6D chess" comments about Musk because his actions are that indefensibly stupid.

  • A few weeks ago I poured some cane sugar coke in a half-drunk glass of Port and all my friends looked at me like I was crazy when I said it wasn't half bad

  • Hmm interesting.

    Tangentially related, I like adding Tonic water to sodas as a way of making them more bitter/less appetizing as a way of forcing me to drink less and slow down. Usually a 50/50 mixture and it effectively turns a 6pk of bottles into a 12

  • Eh. The majority of people live in cultures where it's expected their children will take care of them when they retire. Not being able to afford to retire is a pretty specifically Western thing.

  • This is polyphemus erasure

  • You. Cannot. Build. A. System. Of. Social. Justice. In. A. System. Of. Political/Economic. Injustice.

    There's a reason why we got so much shit done in the 60-70s, socially, and why nobody really feels like we've progressed much since then.

  • I stopped reading after the lie in the first sentence

  • It feels good to be acknowledged

  • Just realized that the first video on YouTube is a dick joke.

  • Trump drops profits for corporations who funded his inauguration, too.

  • "No b-because he was a bad guy so we can accuse him of other bad guy stuff too!"

    Inb4 police find "a mysterious white power" and never mention it again
