As a one off, sure.

As a concerted effort to remove the wealth and power of the man who is doing an incredible amount of damage to the US and the entire world, I'll allow it.

Attacking a private person who already has paid for the car doesnt really do much to Tesla and merely will have the same effect that those people glueing themselves to the streets have: making their cause known but reflected negatively on by those people they need to convince about it being a good thing instead.

Attacking Tesla charging stations has a certian effect for sure.
Attacking a Tesla trader is a grand show of dislike.

It’s pretty infantile to vandalise some someone’s Tesla because you don’t like Elon Musk.

I don't know any infants that would risk their liberty to make a political statement against fascism, unchecked & unaccountable power, or tyranny... So no, I don't believe it is infantile.

... what it is, is likely criminal damage, which is fine, and I'm sure people caught doing it will be held accountable.

The fact they choose to put themselves at risk of prosecution by committing these acts, is not something I'm about to condemn or cry about, personally.

Agreed for the most part.

Certain Teslas draw more ire than others, and that's probably as it should be. The Cybertruck, for example, is very much about Elon's particular personality and insanity, whereas the model 3 or Y is really not tied to him in that way. That's why people hate on Cybertruck owners.

But I like that people hate on Cybertruck owners. I like that Cybertruck owners are complaining about getting the middle finger constantly in traffic. Honestly I think they should have expected it, but also, I want them to have trouble selling it. I want them to realize that nobody wants it, not just because it's dumb and doesn't work, but because it has a stigma.

I do wonder if someday Teslas are going to be like VW Beetles, once the Nazism is somehow under wraps.

It makes other people think twice before buying a Tesla, even if they don't particularly care about what Elon Musk says and does. And for that reason it may well harm Tesla's future sales.

Doubtful, considering Beetles were designed to be easily repaired by the owner and kept running for decades after they were built. Teslas can't be serviced by anyone but Tesla, and once their battery packs, wheel motors or any of the other myriad of electronic parts fall out of production they'll have an unavoidable expiration date. Maybe a Cybertruck or two will find their way into some eccentric collector's garage, but without the ability to keep it running themselves it's not going to be much more than a historical oddity.

The man who views his children as things so gave his kid the name of a thing told Hannity that the astronauts on the ISS left because of the issues with the Boeing spacecraft were stranded for "political reasons".

Andreas Mogensen - literally the commander of the ISS from August 2023 to March 2024 - responds: "What a lie. And from someone who complains about lack of honesty from the mainstream media."

My-step-sister-is-my-step-mom immediately snaps back with ableist slurs and claims that SpaceX could have brought them back months ago but the Biden Administration refused to do it.

Mogensen replies, without rising to the insults: "You know as well as I do, that Butch and Suni are returning with Crew-9, as has been the plan since last September. Even now, you are not sending up a rescue ship to bring them home. They are returning on the Dragon capsule that has been on ISS since last September.

(Crew-9 launched in September 2024 with two empty seats, in order to return with four; this was all announced by NASA and SpaceX in August 2024)

Why-won't-everyone-call-me-Meme-Lord's carefully measured response to that was to announce he wanted to deorbit the ISS as soon as possible - rather than 2030 - because it was no longer fit for purpose.


So yeah. "Man" wants to destroy humanity's most complex engineering project (and biggest vehicle) ever early because he got caught out lying about it by a guy who was in charge of it.

Proper tantrum stuff.

Neither astronaut involved nor the NASA administrator for their mission heard of the offer from the weirdcocked gaslighter:


The latter notes that if it was suggested, it was either disregarded as unworkable (the rich guy Ked out a dumb idea then Twitted abuse at the actual experts... never happens) or went in at a low level and never made it up the food chain.

Also most astronauts generally don't mind staying in space a bit longer, if they know there's a safe way for them to get back. Their stay on the ISS tends to be the greatest thing they do in their whole life.

This whole thing is a non-issue.

Maybe Elmo is just jealous that they get to stay in space extra long, whereas he will never go there.

Hopefully he's all ketamine'd up today.

He's currently claiming there's a group- or state-sponsored cyberattack on Twitter.

Which means someone pushed the wrong button (him) and only one of the people he sacked knows how to fix it.

I guess he is not the master coder after all.
