"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."

Fun fact: a replacement windshield for a tesla is on average 1,200 - 2,000 dollars because of their dumb as fuck design

[-] Albbi@lemmy.ca 20 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Cyberwindshield: $1200

Cyberwindshield wiper: 3 months backorder

Making a Nazi supporter cry: priceless

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 week ago

I heard the horse cock of a windshield wiper is almost irreplaceable because it's 4 feet long and in limited supply.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 1 week ago

It's also made significantly more expensive by the fact that it IS an actual cock from a horse.

Purebred only, on Musk's insistence.

Hand picked by the man himself I hear

[-] miss_demeanour@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 week ago

Inspired by the Bible.

[-] Cort@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

You're not technically wrong since they were just early to the party with driver assistance & Lane departure warning/avoidance systems, but since the USA made those types of systems mandatory for all cars in 2023, most vehicles 2023+ will now have a similar cost.

for context the windshield of a big ass semi truck costs between $65-225 or just 18% at worst or 3% at best
and they're pretty large too

Oh so all that “first principles” design their CEO likes to talk about really just means “reinvent the wheel and sell the prototypes to customers at prototype prices?”

Huh, who would have thunk it?

Gotta be one of the biggest/fastest drops in a company’s stock value since Cutthroat Island opened in theaters.

[-] Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org 12 points 1 week ago

Which is really upsetting, because that was a good movie and the SNES game was great.

[-] Placebonickname@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Movie was fun, it just didn’t do well as far as sales go and it was expensive - so it’s considered a “box office bomb”.

[-] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 week ago

SNESDrunk has entered the chat

I was recently reminded of it because of the vid, but the game always was, and is, fun.

Oh noo, it caused mass terror throughout the country ... when people saw mildly vandalised pre-shitty cars, PTSD for life.

[-] Caffeinated_Sloth@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago

Plutocracy: Destroy Capitol? Ok. Destroy Capital? Not on my watch!

[-] ABetterTomorrow@lemm.ee 15 points 1 week ago

It’s always the opposite with these weirdos.

[-] AppleTea@lemmy.zip 14 points 1 week ago

the difference being private property and public property. only one of those is considered sacred

[-] Signtist@lemm.ee 14 points 1 week ago

Remember, Trump doesn't say things that are true - or even things he thinks are true - he only says things that he thinks will benefit him to say. So yes, it benefits him to say Jan 6 wasn't domestic terrorism, and that vandalism of his boss' cars is domestic terrorism.

[-] Wilco@lemm.ee 13 points 1 week ago

How many police officers got killed when those cybertrucks got spraypainted?

ALL OF THEM AND THE PERPETRATORS WILL BE HUNTED

no, the footage will not be released, you'll just have to trust the department.

[-] Hozerkiller@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago
[-] Schadrach@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 week ago

Such a massive number that you could add several zeros to it and not notice the difference.

[-] PyroNeurosis 12 points 1 week ago

So what you're saying is: the only wqy to not be a terrorist is to threaten elected officials until I get my way?

I'm off to be an upstanding citizen.

[-] painfulasterisk1@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 week ago

Can't be any elected official, the waiver only applies toward a specific group.

[-] SoleInvictus 9 points 1 week ago

And you have to belong to a specific group.

[-] Trashcan@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Pantone of racism

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

yeah sums up the vibes on this post. of course fascists are gonna use rhetoric like this to make themselves look good.

ohh I see it now...

[-] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Just a lil' FYI: you can use a marker/pen to draw on slices of cheese before you need to toss them "somewhere" and start another piece.

[-] chaogomu@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Cheese? only use American and only in extremely hot areas.

The real joy is using slices of bologna.

Or, if you want to go hard, get some sponges and soak them in acetone. But that's not for Cybertrucks. They need lemon juice and salt. Just mix up a batch and fill a squirt gun.

[-] taxiiiii@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

They're clearly destabilizing the countries integrity by checks notes vandalizing cars! Property damage is obviously much worse than actual violence, so long as the property is expensive enough. /s

[-] ITguru@feddit.nl 7 points 1 week ago

Why did you vote him in office?

[-] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago

About ⅓ of eligible voters voted for someone else.

About ⅓ of eligible voters voted for him.

About ⅓ of eligible voters didn't vote at all- either because they didn’t want to, or were unable to.

He won by the slimmest margin in decades.

So WE didn’t vote him in. A majority of voters did (by the slimmest of margins). But a lot of that can be attributed to misinformation, foreign (Russian) influence, oligarchs playing the system, and so on. There was a massive influx of campaign cash for him in specific states (from people like Musk).

Of the ⅓ who voted for someone else, the majority of them voted for Harris, and are absolutely miserable with the outcome. The bulk of the eligible American voters you meet on Lemmy probably fall into that category. When you come to them and say “why did you vote him in office?” You’re not asking the right people.

Many of us didn't. In fact, many people didn't vote for anybody, and that was a major part of the problem. These people, usually single issue voters, thought they had the moral high ground by not voting between bad and worst.

Trump received the same number of votes as last election, but Harris received significantly less than Biden did last election. Harris wasn't good enough for a lot of Democrats, and they thought not voting and letting Trump win was better than tossing their morals aside on a single issue.

Well then, shouldn't be long before we're all terrorists, seeing as this won't be the end of it.
