Comment on Framework supporting far-right racists?

  Cope however you want but the fact remains driving a Ford means supporting Nazis. His involvement with the Nazis was no small amount, regardless how long ago it was. Slavery was centuries ago, yet white people are still vilified for their ancestors. How is it any different?

    My choice of car today doesn’t give any money to a guy who’s been dead for 3/4 of a century. I’m not the one coping here.

    Also, I don’t drive a Ford anyway so go grasp at straws somewhere else.

      The cope isn’t about driving a Ford, it’s about supporting a company that directly profited from actual Nazis. The virtuous thing is to not support a company who progressed through blood money.

        Well, as I already said, I don’t own a Ford. So I’m not sure how you think I’m supporting them.

        But even then, your point is nonsensical because the Nazi supporters are dead and the current CEO wasn’t even born until long after Henry died and the war ended.

        Unless you want to get into North Korea style multi generational punishment. But I think we all agree that’s a bad thing.

        So unless you can articulate how Ford Motor Company today is actively supporting Nazis, we’re done.

  Be careful. Stanning fascists is making a serious comeback among the billionaire set.
