reading these comments i didn’t realize there was a whole subculture around teslas and how pervasive and trending toward toxic it was. wild.

genuine question: why call the police anyway? say the tesla driver was right and there was no compatibility. what were they thinking the rivian driver is gonna do? worst case scenario is they are gonna realize their mistake and… leave?
like how is this different from me seeing someone accidentally filling a minivan with diesel and calling the fucken cops about it? i feel there is something more malicious going on here than “a need for education” unless i am missing something.
despite its various shortcomings, i have to say i’m proud of the lemmy community for doing trans people a solid across instances in this situation. shouts out y’all. 🏳️⚧️🫶
sorry buddy but you did transphobia. whether or not you are in the mood to label it as such that’s what it was.
i have beef with power tripping mods as much as you but this is in no way an example of that.
edit: also it was a three day ban? i have seen folks permabanned for similar. be thankful you are allowed to return, look inwards and do some self examination instead of complaining.
sorry, i mean lemmy. not the news site.
good to see content on here taking this seriously. seen one too many comments making light of the situation for the partisan clout.
lemmy commenters when a meme post on a meme channel doesn’t have the rhetorical nuance of a three hour video essay: 😡😡😡
fair enough
i can’t wait to see post flairs on lemmy. a simple [misleading headline] goes so far.
misleading headline, and it’s not even close.
“residents beg mayor”
no they didn’t. the article doesn’t cite one singular instance of a resident asking the mayor to stop the eclipse. what it does cite is an off hand, likely facetious/joke comment by said mayor in relation to a bridge that is under construction.
of course, this fact didn’t stop the author from running with this absolute lie, the media entity from publishing the deception, and most of the comments here are falling for the perversion of truth and are clowning on and smearing an entire township.
pardon me if this comment is overly serious. i get this is a satire-of-satire community but holy smokes we need to have better standards for our media. if they can get away with this white lie, imagine what they do every other day when lives are on the line.
yes! this type of headline is essentially misinformation???? this is twitter-level mincing of words and an embarrassment to real reporters everywhere.
this type of post should not be allowed, not as real news, and not as c/nottheonion content either. clown behavior.
horrific to see the fear of losing literally everything derided as “fee fees getting hurt.”
anyone who actually thinks florida sinking memes are funny is clearly coming from a place of notable privilege or affluence. i’d expect this kind of behavior from r/conservative, but i guess some of the neoliberal community are showing their true colors right here on c/climate.
“fuck the poor lmao i only care about the aesthetics of climate activism; the actual harm of climate change on the ground is irrelevant to me.”
reality is often disappointing
