While Elon indulges in political theater and self-aggrandizing quips, Tesla is experiencing an unprecedented slump in both sales and stock value.

    I mean, at this point you get to choose between hurting the feelings of innocent bystanders or we get to be the smuggest people in the camps who feel great about ourselves for not “stooping to their level.”

    Consideration and care is great when you have the stable society that allows you to take that time and care. It’s arguable if we ever really had that stability, but we definitely do not right now. This is just like the people who couldn’t vote for Harris because of her position about Israel. Yes, you’re ethically correct in the linear little world of your own feelings about doing the right thing, but would those people make the same decision now?

      There’s a saying where I’m from “You can be the last righteous man or the last man standing” mind you this in context to killing Mormons but still I think the Left as a whole needs it etched in their fucken skulls. Is there really a point in holding punches if the other person has a knife, id say no since they aren’t holding back. Don’t hold your tongue when dealing with fascists just make sure it bites, throw a couple slurs around if ya have to.
