I'm indifferent on unsold Teslas being targeted, not like law exists in this country anymore. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I am absolutely 100% fucking appalled that people would be ok with doxing Tesla owners. These are real people with families who now have to fear for their safety because they thought it was cool technology when they bought the car. They also may not be able to easily afford to sell the car and buy a new or used one right away.

This does nothing good for anyone and hurts any resistance movement and sadly makes any resistance look like it lacks empathy for fellow human beings just like how what the right is doing shows they lack empathy.

Eh, I think most people would agree with you here but no one would go out of their way to stop or even denounce this cause that's at the very bottom of the list of issues.

And just like that we're now all focused on the couple of (quite frankly) idiots that are burning consumers' Teslas instead of the unsold ones at dealerships. Again. Just like every discussion of a protest is not about the tens of thousands of people protesting but about the 10 people looting.

Looks like the attempt to control the narrative is working as expected.

People need perspective. The right is literally killing people with policy and detaining /disappearing citizens and destroying this country.

The left is burning cars in protest as it actually hurts the bottom line of a right leader. The other leftists are more apauled at the burning cars than at the stuff the right is doing that is much worse.

I've got news for you. This is going to get a lot worse than burnt cars if you ever want it to get better.

Why limit it to just teslas? Make everyone who wastes money on a luxury vehicle while their are starving children regret it.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 days ago

Its about hurting musk more than anything else. Its not about attacking luxury. Its not about attacking green. Its about hurting Musk since he is destroying lives with his doge bs. This is said as someone who has no interest in vandalizing Tesla's. But I understand where they are coming from.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

Because 'luxury' is a sliding scale. A lot of dudebros spend 100k+ on 'trucks' that have never seen dirt, let alone hauled anything. An acquaintance of mine has a V12 Jaguar that he has lovingly coddled back from the dead by sheer will and a LOT of late nights in his meager garage. He's just to the positive side of 'poor' but that car is his fun-money-entertainment (doesn't have kids or a GF at the moment).

Reminds me: HOW THE HELL is their stock UP 23.72% this past week. I mean, what. the. fuck.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago

probably artificially kept up by investors, or by musk or his cohorts so they can sell thier stocks before it crashes.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

Because investors know that they will almost certainly eventually be bailed out by a massive government purchase, so they bought the dip.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

The same way a brand new crypto coin suddenly gain a lot of value. You bump it until you're not the last moron holding the bag.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 days ago

I went there and there are 5 people listed on it, like Elon and Kash Patel. If they have regular innocent people on the site it isn't showing them to me.

The vast majority of icons are just dealerships and superchargers.

It still looks like there's a clearweb site: https://dogeque.st/

I'm not sure if it's a mirror or the OG. Love the custom cursor.

And, for convenience, the .onion link: dogeqstqzn2yjns2d6ccns7aa52tglno63ay2uv2orfvd7e23khcsxid.onion (you will need Tor to access)
