dynamojoe , in Trump says he won’t sign RNC loyalty pledge ahead of first debate

Honestly I agree with his reasoning. There are people on the GOP ticket I wouldn’t support either (all of them). I wonder how Ronna is gonna wriggle out of this.

DozensOfDonner , in Disapproval of Elon Musk is top reason Tesla owners are selling, survey says

The way Musk is acting should have some severe effects on any company he touches. It’s pretty annoying that he just so insanely wealthy that he can screw around and still have fuck-you money.

style99 , in Southwest Airlines appeals order requiring its lawyers to take 'religious liberty training'
@style99@kbin.social avatar

When people say that you need to "respect religious liberty and diverse viewpoints in the workplace," what they mean is that they want you to tolerate their bigotry and continue to silently receive their abuse.

This is what happens when you make conservatives your leaders.

TopShelfVanilla , in Red Cross ends blood-donation restrictions that singled out gay and bisexual men

Cue right wingers refusing transfusions. Actually, that’s fine.

gothicdecadence ,

Blood is blood is blood. I’m sure that people who need it don’t care if an absolute bigoted moron gave it to them, they wouldn’t know anyways.

Edit: I’m the moron, you meant refusing taking blood, not giving it lmao

Rachelhazideas ,

We should make it known to these people that it’s ‘gay blood’ though. What they do with their own body is up to them because I support bodily autonomy, including dying of bigotry.

nomadjoanne ,

The rule was very necessary in the 80s. It vast majority of HIV-infected individuals were gay and bisexual men. However, those days are long gone, and we can test blood pretty well for even very low levels of HIV nowadays.

Rachelhazideas ,

Are youIn 2006, the AABB, American Red Cross, and America’s Blood Centers all supported a change from the current US policy of a lifetime deferral of MSM to one year since most recent contact. One model suggested that this change would result in one additional case of HIV transmitted by transfusion every 32.8 years. The AABB has suggested making this change since 1997. The FDA did not accept the proposal and had concerns about the data used to produce the model, citing that additional risk to recipients was not justified. Source

We are well past the 80s and decades behind something that should have. Been corrected a long time ago. The systemic discrimination towards gay men is apparent when you look at EU models of deferment compared to the US.

GCostanzaStepOnMe , in Disapproval of Elon Musk is top reason Tesla owners are selling, survey says

This really just tells us that people who sell their Teslas don’t have any real problems.

sweetdude ,

Not to mention they surveyed 5000 out of 4+ million Tesla owners. I’m sure those numbers are reflective of the rest. /s

cassetti , in Disapproval of Elon Musk is top reason Tesla owners are selling, survey says

My partner needed to buy a new vehicle. A Tesla Model was easily in budget. But they opted not to buy one because they want zero affiliation with Musk or any connotations that they may endorse his behavior by owning one of his products.

BloodForTheBloodGod ,

FWIW, they’re also terribly made cars that keep poorly.

cassetti ,

Oh no doubt that was also a big factor, but even if they were well built high quality cars, it would still be a non-starter as long as Elno has anything to do with the company.

Anecdotally I have to disagree.

I really enjoy our Model 3 and Model Y. After renting an ID.4 for a week in Norway I find that the Tesla setup is a lot more “no nonsense” than other OEMs.

For example the ID.4 has many “safety” features that help center the car in the land if it detects that you are leaving the road. In Norway that have very narrow roads and you often have to pull over to the shoulder (far past the lane edge) to let a car pass.

To turn those settings off in an ID.4 I had to dig through a menu and disable them every time I get into the car. Every. Time.

Tesla’s UI experience is much more like a smart phone with persistence like one would expect. Like or hate the form factor, the infotainment on Tesla’s are done about as well as you can with a giant touch screen in my opinion.

I really fucking loath Musk these days though and wish he would be ousted from Tesla.

Sarcastik ,

Not really fair to compare the ID.4 against your Teslas. The Audi Etron on the other hand has a far superior infotainment system compared to the Tesla and none of the issues from the base model VW.

I’m not accusing of intentionally comparing apples to oranges, but given the price brackets you made a really terrible argument.

navi ,
@navi@lemmy.tespia.org avatar

The price brackets seem the same to me. Our Model 3’s config is actually cheaper than it’s similar ID.4 spec, where as an etron is like $30k MORE.

sweetdude ,

Strange. We’ve got a 2019 SR+, 70k miles and it’s been flawless. I’ve only replaced the tires and the updates have actually added features. Y’all need to stop reading some of these anti-ev articles. You will always have a minority of vehicle owners complaining about whichever one they bought. Tesla isn’t any worse than others. Hell, here’s a recall from Dodge and they’ve been building vehicles a lot longer. www.msn.com/en-us/autos/…/ar-AA1f5hb4

money_loo ,

Same experiences here since 2018.

Musk is a fuckwad but he’s not hand building the cars, these comments reek of children and ignorance.

BloodForTheBloodGod ,

I hear a range of issues with Teslas that mostly come down to shoddy manufacture.

Either way all cars are bad, EV or no, and only collective transport solves any of our problems. Short term, buying a used gas vehicle is still less harmful to the environment.

He’s playing 4D chess, decreasing his net worth by being a Nazi. Libs and demsocs just don’t understand. He’s not like the other boys.

So, when will the U.S. be sending their National Guard to Florida like they did during the integration of their southern schools?

That’s what the gay agenda has been after the whole time!?

dustout ,

Yah, I had to laugh at that statement. I think the media folks go out of their way to find the punchable-face pics too as all of them seem to fit that bill.
