News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Rich coming from the person trying to justify Tesla cars as not a ripoff when they're some of the worst shit to come out of North America in the past few decades, equipped with a ripoff self-driving technology that doesn't work even though it was promised to be coming as a fully fledged feature a decade ago, and which has been getting charged as a complete feature for just as long.
Maybe, just maybe, the ultra-billionaire fascist asshole who's hoarding wealth by inflating his companies' stock prices doesn't have his costumer's best interests in mind. I know, shocking, moral values kinda correlate with whether you're getting ripped off or not, its a crazy concept, and one that the MAGA folks so desperately think they understand but they sorely don't.
I'm literally saying Teslas are a ripoff.
You're paying extra because there's no competition. There's no competition because the same people profiting off of your naivete uses that profit to buy your government and make your laws.
OP literally said there's much better deals anyways. You focused entirely on the financial aspect of the comment, when that was never what was being discussed. Its perfectly fine for people to, in addition to thinking about good or bad deals, think about the moral implications of their purchases. At no point did they say or imply that morality was the only or primary basis for a purchase regardless of value proposition.
Edit: don't assume I'm a fucking gringo, ew
I'm the one who commented.
Use your brain.

But let's be real, that's asking too much of you. You're just upset that I dared criticize people for their mindless consumption.Keep spending.
You're zensanto. LadyMeow is LadyMeow. OP, in my context, is LadyMeow, not you. You're just being autistic for no good reason.
To quote OP:
Or is this too difficult for you to follow?
