While I am generalizing about your average rabidly proud MAGA Tesla driver, I'm not saying that every Tesla driver is a Nazi.

Your original comment:

Tesla has become the official automobile brand of magastan. When you see one rolling down the road, or more likely stuck in 2 inches of snow, at least you'll know where its owner stands on things like equality and the new national norm of fascism.

You're the one who just pivoted into the Nazi word use. Your original comment was clear. If you call for a false dichotomy, don't be surprised when "true patriots" push back as that rhetoric is what fascists use. I don't want you to drag the rest of us down with you.

I'm going to break this response down.

Lots of rage here, but you know the right answer.

Are you just trolling? No rage, I'm simply pushing back against people who paint people like me as "fascists and fascist supporters" with a broad brush and encourage others to do the same. They're actively making my life worse.

I won't even dignify "you know the right answer" with a response.

I'm a federal employee in the process of losing my career over this shit.

I see you missed that I'm LGBTQIO+. I'm not cishet. I'm in fear for my life and the lives of my partner and friends, so I'm fleeing the country and starting over, hoping the next place doesn't want me to die at some point too. Sorry about your job though.

Your last paragraph is just a big, lazy strawman that similarly suggests you never bothered to understand my previous comments before responding. I wasn't going to respond to it as I'm now quite sure you're just rage baiting at this point, but then realized someone on the fence about thinking like this might be reading.

I've been actively protesting the US decline into fascism for over thirty years. I'm a scientist that worked in public health. I'm disabled and am a disability advocate. I am this "true patriot" you pretend I'm blaming with the radical notion that we...*checks notes*... not assume everyone who drives a particular vehicle that has been sold for over a decade is a Fascist or fascist supporter since the CEO went mask off as a neo-Nazi in the last few months. That clearly means I'm "hating the haters" and "blaming the true patriots". Clearly.

Seconded, I use a Define 7 and it's fantastic. Best big black box I've ever owned.

Have you checked out United Allergy Services? They claim to have self-administered allergy shots.

Thank you. I was just wondering why the hell anyone would work for AA to begin with. This helps explain some of the draw.

I'm of Sicilian heritage and Cash's first wife, Vivian Liberto, would look perfectly at home at a family reunion.

Looks like Reddit is leaking again.

I drive a Prius and can confirm. Large trucks act threatened by my existence on a regular basis.

I just stumbled over your post at random. I use Voyager and it's great..

As someone with a rare disease that took seeing literally dozens of doctors over 20 years to get a diagnosis, I'd prefer an AI doctor for diagnosis and maintenance. I'd prefer a human doctor working with AI for treatment.

In my experience, critical thinking is lacking in the medical profession.

We had ours during the pandemic. While my friends and coworkers griped about toilet paper shortages, it was like having a hidden superpower.

I know they make terrible shirts.

 

I have a disability and want to smack these jerks with my cane.
