    You can have my upvote, but commenting here risks the echo chamber that is Lemmy to attack this comment too.

    This place is perfectly OK stooping as low as the “other side”. Our violence is justified, theirs is not. Under no circumstance is the owner of that Cybertruck owned by someone that LOVES EV’s and just loves its looks/capabilities. They absolutely must have bought it because they support Nazi’s, no other reason. Everyone else here is virtuously perfect.

    So each ‘side’ of America keeps stepping lower, justifying it by the previous act bringing us deeper into this hell we’re building in real time.

    For the record, Elon can go f%$k himself, but under no circumstances am I going to inflict violence/anger on a random AMERICAN going about their day in their stupid Cybertruck.

      If you loved EVs, why on Earth would you get a Cybertruck when there are legitimately good EV trucks out there?

      If you scroll down to the list of other EV trucks, the Cybertruck is the most expensive after the Hummer, which, no shit that’s ridiculously overpriced like all Hummers. That’s not an endorsement.

        Seems a question you’d have to ask the person that bought it, not me.

        I think everything about them is stupid. EVs in general do not fit my use case.

        I do track days / time trials in my fun car I tow a boat and haul stuff with my truck (sometimes hundreds of miles). I guess if I could have a third commuting car a EV might work, but I use my motorcycle for that whenever possible.

          You’re the one who came up with the explanation that it’s about loving EVs, not the person who bough it. So I’m asking you.

      If they’re just an EV enthusiast, they would have bought a good EV that doesn’t crash itself, lock you inside, and rust out from a little morning dew. A Rivian pickup still costs less than a Swasticar and functions a lot better.

      This was a personal choice that these drivers made when they bought their truck, and they get to live with the consequences. Your argument has more holes than swiss cheese.

      Our violence is justified…

      Please point me to a news source that reported actual physical violence to a swasticar driver. All I’ve seen is light vandalism at best.

        Light vandalism is a good start. Violence against Nazis IS justified - it’s the only language they speak, so be sure to communicate loud and clear.

      Fuck off with the bullshit moral equivalence.

      Damn straight, violence against Nazis is justified when violence against egalitarian people is not! What the fuck is wrong with you, that you think defending against hate is wrong?

      Your argument is bad, and you should feel bad. 🤦🏼‍♂️

      How many logical fallacies can you spot, kids?
