This could potentially be a concept in 100 years but is a stupid question for now.

They did it during Black Lives Matter. Would cover their faces, remove their badges, and use rental cars to pull people off the street and disappear them. It’s happening now with ICE.

Same reason Truth Social does. A bunch of idiots praying to their master.

Although I love the positivity, this is more a story about Tesla than VW.

It won’t help Tesla one wit. They are going to collapse.

My point was more that they will believe they have created a scalpel but it’s actually a cudgel. They aren’t as clever as they think they are and will mess up here.

I hadn’t considered that, but looking at Elon as an example, yes, this is likely.

I have no faith in their AI efforts. They are going to flag so many random accounts.

He’s one of the very few conservatives I feel respect for. I may not agree with his takes but believe that he is thoughtful, honest, and filled with integrity. His opinions are reasoned and rational. Wish he were a progressive, we’d think of him like Bernie.

If they were different when new then it likely has to do with what threads were available at the time of production.

There’s a huge pet trade for ants. Really big hobby.

The argument is symbolic. He’s still a foreigner and will always look and sound like a foreigner. His Thai friends will consider him part of the community, but he’s just some expat to everyone else.

It seems like every 10 years or so a story like this comes up.

I remember in the 90s there was a case of a teenager who vandalized or put graffiti on a building in some place like Singapore and was sentenced to caning. There was this huge outcry about how cruel it was and such, and I remember (I was in high school) thinking that the guy was an idiot who made how own bed.

Then you get Otto Warmbier who somehow was allowed into North Korea and then decided it was a good idea to rip a post of the country’s founder off the wall.

The lesson? Know where you are. When you’re not in Kansas, then don’t do Kansas things. Consequences are different in different parts of the world. It’s really easy to be a respectful traveler.

He was getting on or off a plane as I recall. In something like 2017 or 2018.

In Captain Planet, it always bothered me that the South American dude got a ridiculous power like “heart” while everyone else got something useful.

This is the case. They are mimicking the original Japanese choreography and movement style.

Yes. They will also sacrifice their own children and their wellbeing.

This will impact the stock price. Tesla will lose more than the fine in total.

Even the billionaires are going to lose money. It’s just unjustifiably stupid.

This is actually a very big thing in conservative areas. It’s like they all want to be that princess that they were told they were at 3 years old.
