The Biden administration shoveled American taxpayer money into Tesla by subsidizing the purchase of Model Y’s, making it the 4th best selling car of 2024 (according to Car and Driver). 400k Tesla Y’s sold in America in 2024 alone.
Many people on the left purchased Teslas. I refuse to demonize my friends and neighbors.
It is unclear to me how demonizing millions of Tesla owners is going to win hearts and minds. This is madness.

in reply to Bruce Sterling @bruces • • •There's a lot of human stories behind every one of those machines, and also there's a lot of humanity we imbue into the machines themselves (particularly JAXA, but also others).
