- Comment on Tesla is banned from Canada EV rebate program, gov freezes suspicous $43 million in rebates 4 weeks ago:
Yes, but that 13% is massively leveraged. So it would significantly impact his ability to pay his loans that use those shares as collateral.
- Comment on Never send a text message when drunk 4 weeks ago:
Is it though
- Comment on Bluesky made more money selling T-shirts mocking Mark Zuckerberg in one day than it has in two years of selling custom domains 4 weeks ago:
Alternatively, no ads and we can support it through donations or anti-oligarchy purchases like this shirt.
Ads open up a pandoras box of monetization of user data/traffic/clicks/links/additional engagement, etc.
It’s a dark, dark, dark road, and we’ve been down it dozens of times with tech giants. It never ends well.
Let’s stop having advertising be the way we fund pseudo-free services, and instead just give people options to donate or pay into it some other way. We need to end this reliance on advertising industry for revenue.
- Comment on Why aren't there mass protests in the USA? 4 weeks ago:
We met have the level of social safety nets that France does to allow people the freedom to pretest without starving or becoming homeless. It is by design. They keep everyone just on the verge of poverty so nobody can afford to be disruptive.
- Comment on The Volkswagen ID. EVERY1 is an affordable EV for the masses 1 month ago:
A lot of that isn’t known until nearly the last minute. Especially any of the hard metrics like mp/kwh, range, and especially any infotainment specifics.

- Comment on is it wrong/selfish to cut contact with my trump-supporting father? 1 month ago:
Nope. Do it. I did. It’s rough at first, but it gets better over time.
You won’t miss him. You’ll miss the idea of who he was, but then you’ll realize he was never the person you grew up believing in/admiring.
Sometimes you grow up and your dad stays your hero. Other times, you learn he’s a narcissist misogynistic selfish small minded person.
Cut people like this out of your life.

- Comment on The Oligarchs Who Came to Regret Supporting Hitler | They helped him in pursuit of profit. Many ended up in concentration camps. 2 months ago:
To seize their assets as “state” assets after their deaths. It’s a somewhat common tactic of fascist regimes to treat their oligarchs as piggy banks.
Anytime you need some more money for the “state” (aka the dictator’s pockets), you knock off an oligarch and seize their assets.

If it actually was attempted to be cooked in a skillet, a very, very different outcome and text message would have been shared.
- Comment on I am required to pay taxes to the US government, not elon musk running a fraudulent government agency, why should I pay? 2 months ago:
I was with you but if you’re calling out logical fallacies your ad homenims are a little much against the guy, who I agree, sounds 15 or a 55 sovcit.
The majority of your post is valid though, outside of the personal attacks.

If someone was doxxing you on bluesky, for example, and in the doxxing, you got attacked/injured by someone who recognized you/went to your house.

- Comment on Building DIY Heaters for $7 to Keep Unhoused People Warm 4 months ago:
“Unhoused” is the preferred nomenclature.
“Unhomed” is the wrong tense and way to use when referring to someone in this situation.
“Homeless” makes it seem like they don’t have a home, which isn’t true, as homes are not always a structure and can be considered more of a concept.
Unhomed is past tense and still refers to them not having a “home”, which again, is not true and is generally seen as a demoralizing way to refer to their situation as if they don’t, or can’t build a home from the communities they find themselves in.
Unhoused is referring purely to the structure of a house, not the concept of a home. A house is a physical thing, whereas a home is where you make it, sort of thing.

As the saying goes: It is a well known fact that reality has a liberal bias.
- Comment on 'Democrat propaganda': Marjorie Taylor Greene plans to team up with Musk to defund NPR 4 months ago:
NPR has remained exactly where it was, politically, for decades.
It’s the world you’re noticing that has moved significantly further to the right.

Put wayyyy too much time into that :P
- Comment on X rival Bluesky gains 1.25 million users following U.S. election 5 months ago:
This.
Back in the day this in his the internet worked. Every forum host was just some guy or girl hosting a platform so they cloths build a cunning with the people and hobbies they love.
We need to go back closer to that works. The fediverse bridges the gap between the centralized experience, and decentralized management.
Optimistically, it’s the best of both worlds.
