    You know what’s horrific and evil? Cutting Medicaid and social security for millions of people because your billions of dollars isn’t enough money to make up for the fact that you’re a giant man baby.

    He assumed his opponents would kill random people instead of targeting his property.

    He probably can’t even comprehend a worldview where people prefer to attack wealth over taking another human being’s life.

      That would require empathy, which he considers a weakness. So he probably is genuinely baffled by this.

      Burning lithium batteries are explosive, toxic and released heavy metals.

      There’s a limited supply of the materials for EVs and e-bikes but a huge value in replacing gas cars with these vehicles.

      Burning these huge batteries harms people breathing the air in the area.

        Yeah, it’d be better just to cease their purchase and let them sit, completely useless. A burnt car gets an insurance payout. What about throwing those giant stickers on the windshield that don’t peel off without ripping and leave a ridiculous mess? There was a Russian YouTube channel where people would do that to people driving on sidewalks.

          I would agree normally, but at a larger scale, it would cost insurance more to replace everything leading to higher rates and possibly refusal of insurance due to the risk associated.

          I thought Teslas (or maybe just the Cyber truck?) wasn’t insurable. I thought that was the whole reason Tesla has to offer car insurance, because regular insurers won’t cover them.

        The problem is the physical latch is hidden for esthetic purposes. So when something happens that cuts power to the main door release, it’s not easy to find the physical latch.

        So for liability purposes they get to argue that those people weren’t locked in, they just didn’t know the safely mechanisms well enough.

        In other words, they’re built to kill you and get away with it.

          Yeah, I remember this at the time and while a lot of people were relishing the schadenfreude, there was still the perennial point that when UI/UX is any more difficult than it needs to be for a loathesome person, it’s equally difficult for everyone else, too. And when that UI is repsonsible for fundamental safety and it’s overcomplexity results in confusion during an emergency… well, yeah, there it is.
