settlers cozying up in their LARP bunkers while indigenous Hawaiians die from being displaced by said settlers.

he's basically presenting this "solarpunk" image of himself to greenwash all the Lex Luthor Elon Musk-stanning projects he's doing on the side.

you have to consider whether the points you make reflect the reality of billions of people on earth. i don't know what's so hard about it

keep in mind that 40% of the global population doesn't own a smartphone.

that's billions of people that you're leaving out of your analysis which doesn't sound very fair to them. you don't understand poverty because you're assuming your living conditions will be the same as theirs.

wrong, you're just too much of a coward to make shitty art and say it's yours. it's a hurdle that all of us had to get over

why are you assuming that someone who wants to make art would have a phone anyway? some people are poor

he regularly bans people for calling .ml users out on their denial of the Uyghur genocide. he was just one stone throw away from also denying the trans genocide.

this is why authoritarians should never get the benefit of the doubt, they'll never stick with just one dangerous belief.

associating psychosis and narcissism with being abusive is textbook ableism, so yeah

Maybe a more philosophical question, but my country classifies this gorgeous bastard as an electric tricycle because its max speed is locked at 25 km/h so it can be driven without any license.

fun fact, a mini version of this without a cabin is getting really popular with old people in rural areas as a way to replace their bikes because it lowers their chances of getting ran over by cars.

I assume it's also being used as a covert disability aid since it looks less like something that would get you discriminated by ableists or by your mates at the pub.

back to the model in the picture, I also predict a big uptake by the people using horse-drawn carts to haul cargo/people. yes, we do have street-legal horse public transport, why do you ask? 🤭

Zhang Yazhou was sitting in the passenger seat of her Tesla Model 3 when she said she heard her father's panicked voice: The brakes don't work! Approaching a red light, her father swerved around two cars before plowing into an SUV and a sedan and crashing into a large concrete barrier.

Stunned, Zhang gazed at the deflating airbag in front of her. She could never have imagined what was to come: Tesla sued her for defamation for complaining publicly about the car's brakes — and won. A Chinese court ordered Zhang to pay more than $23,000 in damages and publicly apologize to the $1.1 trillion company.
