Don’t buy a car to attract attention and then complain it’s not the attention you wanted.
"Did you see what she was ~~wearing~~ driving? Totally asking for it."
Won’t somebody think of the Musk fanboys?!
Not at all what I'm saying. Just saying that you're using rapist's logic by blaming the assaulted for the assaulter's actions, and I think that's a pretty shitty thing to do, even if they drive an rusty nazimobile.
If a woman wears a short dress to feel pretty that is not an invitation for someone to assault them.
If someone buys a vehicle that is a know disaster, from a guy who can’t stop lying and cheating, and then makes it shiny gold to really drive home that they love their nazi-built pile of rolling garbage and then complains that people are expressing their displeasure in said person’s support of the person who is actively doing things that are killing/will kill people well buddy they can absolutely go fuck themselves.
The basic mechanism is similar, but if you can’t see the ten mile wide gap between those two scenarios I’m not really sure how to explain it to you.
Fuck Musk, fuck fascists, and fuck anyone who buys Tesla during all this garbage(some people before may, or may not, get a pass but I mean come on).
Shiny gold with an ad for a business complete with QR code on the back. That makes it even worse to me.
Not sure why you are being so heavily downvoted. This is a reasonable contribution to the conversation, even if people disagree it.
You think people making fun of a shitty car is comparable to rape?
I'm not talking about making fun of the shitty car, I'm talking threatening and harassing the driver.
No, you're talking about rape when you should really shut the fuck up.
Edit - this user has harassed me off site. He has been reported to the admins.
No I'm not, and no I won't. I'm talking about harassing the driver. I compared defending that behavior to a rapist's victim-blaming mindset. I've been very clear about that.
I'm not trying to put words in your mouth, not sure why you're trying it with me, though.
You should quit while you are behind. I'm telling you that you should shut the fuck up because you are making a fool of yourself. It is advice, don't be a clown.
If you don't have anything to add to the discussion, you don't have to comment. Either make your point - should you have one - or move on.
Yeah my point was "Shut the fuck up, you're embarrassing yourself". I thought that was pretty clear :)
Yeah, so once again you feel the need to put words in my mouth. I'm guessing because you realize that you had no actual point to make to begin with.
So no, I'm not embarrassing myself. If you think I should feel embarrassed for saying that it's a bad thing to harass people, then you're a fucking idiot. I'd be more embarrassed to be caught defending or justifying such shitty behavior.
oh god shut the fuck up, take a telling.
Did you see the nazi uniform that guy was wearing? He was asking for it.
Was she wearing a swastika? If yes, she's asking for a punch in the face. Same applies to driving one.
