Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I thought I was stuck in my Tesla until September, but I called today and was able to negotiate an early release that doesn't require too much out of pocket.
I'm done. Fuck this shit stain. Will never buy Tesla again despite my last 2 vehicles being Tesla and being a referral for two other purchases.
I am now campaigning against. I don't care if the company collapsed at this point.
I care. I want it to collapse, leading to a debt cascade that wipes out all the rest of Musk's holdings. Then I want Musk's world to collapse on him.
One can dream. I'm more hoping that Musk just gets taken out.
Currently researching available alternatives to my 2018 Model 3 as well. I don't really care about the luxury aspect, which is where most EVs are. The big US auto makers still make terrible vehicles after decades, so I definitely don't trust their quality with first or second generation technologies. I'd rather trust a completely new venture based around the tech than legacy auto.
If you're looking for an EV sedan, you could do worse than the Ioniq 6. I love mine.
I love my Ioniq 6 too. It's the best car I've ever owned
Was looking to get into something a bit bigger. Would have gotten a Model Y if they had been on the radar at the time I got my Model 3, but that was years later. I'm pretty tall and getting tired of having to drop down into a car.
Been looking at the Hyundai and Polestar options mostly.
The KIA EV9 is pretty reasonably priced for what you get. As far as I can tell it's the only EV with a functional 3rd row that isn't exclusively in the luxury category.
I'm currently looking at Rivian or Lucid, despite their own evil ties, it is just a temporary lesser evil (for now).
