How does that make me a fascist? So every single person who likes Elon Musk and allt he people working for him are fascists?! LOL congrats! You have totally become a Lemmy stereotype. lololololololol

Ok, so now we are getting somewhere. You are mad because they hype stuff up. And that’s the reason you brought them up in this thread, even though they and OTHER EV companies don’t use a technology that even you yourself don’t think is that great. Correct?

Tesla hypes stuff up a lot, and that makes you really mad. You don’t even agree with the tech the article is talking about, and Tesla doesn’t use a tech that even YOU don’t fucking agree with.

Tesla doesn’t use a tech that other EV makers don’t use either, and you don’t even like the tech, but Tesla hyped it up once, even tho they made the correct choice in not using it.

Think about that for a sec. Then put the interwebs away, and go outside.

My used manual hatchback, cost me $5K used last year, and gets 45mpg. My house was built in 1975. Brother, no way am I gonna pay for any of that stuff you listed.

I may have to start doing that too. I don’t like knowing that if an instance I’m on get mad at me, they can just delete all my stuff.

Yeah, I’ve never gotten the impression that NASA really takes the subject seriously. I love NASA, and I don’t know if they are hiding something or just think it’s all foolish. But either way, they really don’t take any of seriously IMHO

Look around people are ready to eat the wealthy and take down

Then you have no reason to be upset, right? Revolution is right around the corner, right? You’re about to win and get what you want, right? So why you mad? You should be happy!! Cheer up and celebrate!!

Also this is a UFO sub, so not sure why you are so obsessed with Trump. Hmmm, you talk about him a lot. You know what I think? I think you might be a fan. Maybe you are doing all of this just to confuse people.

I can’t take you seriously. Oh well…

I didn’t write the article or name the article. Did you think I wrote the article?

How does that mean I love him? Lots of comms see it as bad from to retitle an article from it’s orginal title.

This is a UFO sub. What are you even going on about?!

Costs. EV cars are still too expensive for the average person. Not everyone makes the salary of Lemmy posters.

To buy an EV car, besides the fact they are expensive, most would have to pay for a huge upgrade in their electrical system to update enough to charge at home.

Right now, EV’s are an option for upper-middle class people.

But you yourself, said you didn’t really believe in the tech. So Tesla not doing it is a good thing, right? Who cares if something is hyped. Every fucking company hypes shit. That’s biz as usual.

Tesla said it might be a big thing. It wasn’t. So they don’t do it. Same reason other EV companies don’t do it.

Sure, but acting like every news story is a “Trump distraction” is pure brainrot. Nobody’s forgetting how much they hate the guy.

I also understand exactly how Einstein felt, when I log into Lemmy.

Thought this was a spot for tech nerds geeking out on niche weird shit. Instead it’s nonstop political derangement no matter the topic.

Bro… we’re in a fucking UFO subreddit talking aliens and flying saucers. And you clowns are screeching it’s all a Trump distraction?

What the actual fuck is wrong with you people? LMAO

So you think people are so distracted they forgot about Trump? You sure about that? No on I know has forgotten about him.

Why single out Tesla for blame when no other US EV maker even tried battery swapping? They all skipped it too. My point is that everyone should be held accountable. Not just Musk, like the user I was replying to, tried to imply.

But you just said you’re not convinced it’s even a worthwhile idea. So what’s the actual problem with it? The Chinese company in the article has been running 4000 stations for eight years and it directly fixes the “sit around waiting for a charge” headache.

If it’s a dumb tech, fine. But this thread devolved into “Tesla bad!!!” yet every other EV maker that never even tried it gets a free pass.

I’m still team “cheaper cars + faster turnaround for normal people who can’t drop $100k,” not team “Musk is rich, so he must be scamming us.”

Nah.

What part is rage bait? You think NPR is writing rage bait articles now?

Good point. I was excited about EV cars when first announced, but after seeing the costs and hearing so many issues with it, no longer on my radar. My E-scooter and E-bikes are awesome tho!

Ok, so what about the other EV cars that never even tried the battery swapping. Shouldn’t they catch heat for not doing it as well?

Yeah? Ok, show me some proof where he says he’s a Nazi. lmao

no one’s arguing he’s not a Nazi.

I’m arguing that. He’s not. And he’s never said he was a Nazi. In fact, he has denied it. You are lying. And not only that, him being a “nazi” isn’t the real reason you hate him.

You hate him because him and Trump got along, and he’s rich. You hate rich people. Has nothing to do with being a nazi. And you know it. Just admit it, bro. lolol

I don’t think he’s a Nazi, but keep going. Hey, don’t forget to post that hitler/musk side-by-side gif! I know you are waiting for it! Dooo it.

I don’t think he’s a Nazi though. I did see a lot of nazi’s painting nazi symbols on Tesla’s parked in predominately Jewish neighborhoods. And pepole who would put a Nazi symbol on any Tesla they saw. Those people are def Nazis.

I’m mentioning Tesla solely because of the lies relating to this article.

Ok, but the article didn’t talk about Tesla. And we have other EV choices here in the US. So how come you aren’t talking about them? Because they aren’t doing the things talked about in this article, so are they in on the “lies” too?

I am a huge fan of Musk. He’s awesome. People on Lemmy cry all day. But he’s works hard and I admire him.

I know, I know,but but all rich people suck?! Big bad millionaires are evil! Eat the rich!

How’s that been working out for ya?
