It's never class infighting when you are attacking class traitors. They are free, of course, to stop being class traitors.

Same logic applies to cops.

They didn't "simply buy a car", they bought a symbol, and everything that brings along with it.

The hate boner for musk is so hard, that some people now fail to see that burning other people’s cars is a problem.

So, you'd be ok with someone wearing a Nazi pin, because "It was their grandpa's"?

I’m still waiting on all those “Luigi copycats” people keep thinking are gonna appear

There's been 2 attacks on CEOs since... The copycats are appearing.

Yes, it uses the same engine, but it blocks their ads.

Which means nothing, when Google can, and is, pushing technology to freely unleash their ad network on all web pages, as a function of the engine itself.

No, it's not a competitor. Excepting in their ad markets, and frankly, it's not a competitor, it's a statistical blip.

but we’ll have one less competitor to Google’s absolute hegemony over the web browser market.

Brave isn't a competitor to Google, it's an enabler. It uses the same engine, which is all Google cares about: Their engine, their internet.

He probably got that idea from Kathy Hochul's CCIA, which mandated anyone getting a pistol permit, or semi-auto hunting rifle permit to fork over all social media logins.

That was, of course, knocked down, as a 1A infringement, rightfully so. I'm guessing the SCOTUS will love this version, though.

A PD placing.... anywhere is evidence.

Another fairy tale is thinking that Vooting Bloo No Matter Hoo can defeat fascism.

It's far more childish to be unable to stick to principles. Children will punch another child for a cookie.... adults know not to, and ones that punch people for cookies are held in contempt by society.

Your stance would be the former: do whatever is easy.

Good.

By that logic we should be attacking Fords because Henry Ford was a Nazi.

Is Henry Ford, right now, at this moment, a Nazi?

Maybe we should be burning 3M and Bayer products in the store?

Is 3M and Bayer today, at this moment, supporting Nazis?

Most existing Tesla owners are left-leaning and purchased the car in good faith before Elon was a public Nazi figure.

Ok, we're not talking about the past right now. We're talking about the current situation. If they are left-leaning, as you imply, they understand the need to NOT display actively in use Nazi symbols and paraphernalia.

It’s not always easy to just sell your car. People are locked into financing contracts and have perhaps shelled out money for charging solutions at their home.

Then they can park it, cover it with a tarp, and use public transportation. Or, ride bike. Or, use rideshare.

Your worldview is childish and reductive. Grow up and come back later.

No, it's principled: You NEVER show support for nazis, regardless of how inconvenient it is for you.

I suspect they would NOT be in a rush to sell, given their comments.

Fascism is the closest descriptor of what Elon supports.

Did you his his nazi salutes? Or his neonazi messaging?

Worse than rejecting... castigating and ejecting them whenever possible.

Im expecting all the first ringers last term, who have since spoke put: Pence is top of lost, imo.

Just waiting for the shoe to drop on the Long Knives.

You have the context: they are still showing their support for a fascist state, and this is worthy of harassment, as a matter of community defense.

Would you defend a woman wearing her grandpa's swastika pin, for any reason, or is that enough context, in that case?

We, as a society, are swinging back to making displays of fascism unacceptable. That's all the needed context.

So, are you opposed to fascism, for it, or just waiting for the winner?

Or, what's your other option here? I fail to see any other at this time.

Again, perhaps some people, who just wanted to not deal with fuel costs, or tried to be altruistic about their cost to the environment, might not be able to just walk away from it.

So, sell it, get a different one. Many companies make EVs now.

Amazingly, some people are unwilling to fuck themselves over financially over protest, regardless of how well intentioned it is.

But they are willing to show undwindling support of a fascist fucking over everyone financially... No matter how evil the intention is.

So, the time has come that people need to ask themselves: Are they willing to be associated with a fascist, in any way? If they are ok with that, why?
