They’ll still hate Tesla almost as much as they hate you, Elon. They won’t suddenly start trusting Xitter or Starlink, either. Just shut up and go away.
I used to use reddit constantly, and did so for years. That level of hostility took over so gradually that I didn’t even consciously notice. I used Lemmy for a few weeks before it really sunk in that nobody had jumped down my throat over a minor, irrelevant issue (like a careless punctuation or grammatical error).
People here tend to give each other the benefit of the doubt, which had become virtually unheard of on reddit. Even when people make replies I don’t agree with, they’re usually discussing the point rather than the way that point is presented.
If they’re “unarchivable”, how are they online in the first place? At some point, the data sets were broken down so they could be read and searched via computer. Why can’t that information be backed up?
I’m smart enough to understand that setting up domestic manufacturing is much more complicated and expensive than I could guess. I also know that getting a project like this from concept to steady, reliable, marketable production takes years.
I also know that the people who think this is quick and easy will proudly wear their MAGA hats today.
The best way to hurt major political donors is to hit them in the wallet. Trump is cutting the MAGA lifeline, for himself and every other MAGA candidate. For that, I will gladly take the pain.
The economists are only “stunned” because they’re used to dealing with logic, reason, and numbers that make sense. You have to throw those things out the window when dealing with Mango Mussolini, folks!
All I can do is extend my sympathies, and tell you that you’re better off in the long run. Most people here don’t like corporate social media because of situations like yours.
Don’t worry about profanity. People swear all the time and don’t mark their posts.
I think you deserve credit for finding a humorous, joyful way to make your point, instead of being obnoxious about it. I don’t even want to imagine what this post (and the accompanying comments) would be like on The Site That Shall Not Be Named.
I like the idea of calling American football “handegg”.
