  • We did evolve grandmother's.

    Grandmother's what? What's implied by the "'s" after "grandmother"?

  • Elon Musk is running out of ideas to save Tesla

    Jump

  • Couldn't a SPAC buy it out if/once he "comes to Jesus" and steps down as CEO and divests?

    Essentially a reformation of the publicly traded company? Granted, these are just my own "pie in the sky" musings.

    Ultimately, I think it's logically consistent to want to have Tesla do well as a company, but also still be against Elon Musk in everything he stands for. Personally, I would also discontinue the cyber truck and refocus towards producing an affordable and reliable EV starting at less than $30K. I don't think any of this is going to happen, mind you.

  • 'Homegrowns are next': Trump doubles down on sending American 'criminals' to foreign prisons

    Jump

  • It seems that I must repeat this to non-Americans until the heat-death of the universe:

    To attempt to overthrow a government by force that has, at its disposal, swathes of 5th generation multirole fighter aircraft, drones with Hellfire missiles, and an army of sycophants more than willing to gun down their brother and sister citizens is a fool's errand for suicidal rubes.

    Wildcat Strikes are de wei.

    So please, cry harder, because I need more material!

  • Absolutely nobody on any of those sites believe that Vladimir fucking Putin is a leftist.

    I have seen evidence to the contrary.

    Those wannabe champions of labor are temporarily-inconvenienced-dictators-in-waiting.

  • Anyone who praises Xi Jingping, Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un, and <insertAuthoritarianMurdererHere> as hard as I routinely see on lemmy.ml, hexbear, and lemmygrad is an awful person and deserves derision, contempt, and distrust. They can call themselves a "leftist", "socialist", "communist", or a whatever-ist. Fundamentally, they're edgelord bootlickers and temporarily inconvenienced dictators-in-waiting.

    "wHaTaBoUt USA, iSrAeL, nAtO, etc.?"

    You can hate "The West", their people, their foreign policy, and their economics.

    Doesn't mean you should suck dictators' dicks because they're "not The West".

  • lemmy.ml, hexbear, and lemmygrad users verbally fellate contemporary and historical autocratic mass-murderers they deem to be “leftists”, or "great leaders and allies to the cause", most recently being Vladimir Putin, Xi Jingping, and Kim Jong Un.

    They are, in reality, bitch-made invertebrates who don’t even have the arm-strength to lift their Molotov-sippy-cups out of their premium-outdoor-brand backpacks, let alone form meaningful opinions on economics, political philosophy, or geopolitical reality.
