I wish that were true for the automotive industry. You sound like the health and safety guy; idealistic and with a lot of ‘good ideas’ that get thrown out by the shop leads as soon as you leave the room. I have been a tech in service, manufacturing, and engineering. Not going to name the manufacturers. The article is…

Obviously you missed the memo.

Nothing absurdly horrific about this forklift ‘accident’. People do stupid things everywhere, so its not unique to Tesla.

“To be clear, it’s possible to both admire Tesla’s ambition and disruptive qualities, and think that the way the company is run is crazy—two truths the Bloomberg story makes all the more evident.”

I agree with schererna on this. Plus, Tesla isn’t being picked apart because they are making an inherently dangerous car, they’re being picked apart for numerous mistakes related to management, missing production targets, missing pricing targets, and for producing a technology that supposedly takes over for human…

Well since we’re just deciding on reality, I have decided that they would not have auto pilot, because that would be an incredibly stupid thing to do and actually nobody at all would want it.

The reason Tesla accidents are picked apart is because of autopilot, not because of Musk, or the Tesla badge, or because they’re electric. Tesla motorcycles wouldn’t have autopilot, so I don’t see why they would be scrutinized any more than any other motorcycle accident.

That’s a stupid reason.

As of last year, the unemployment rate in Saudi Arabia was 12.7 percent, which is about 906,552 people. About 75 percent of that figure were women, according to Al Jazeera. Hopefully, with more women mobile, that figure will drop.

“Their idea of human rights is different from ours. E.g. they believe women have the right not to be looked at by strange men. Etc”

Dear Saudi Arabia,

Wtf. Fuck off with that women have the right not to be looked at by strangers horseshit. In SA its men cover up their property (women) so other men dont see her.

Permission to drive anywhere...

Yeah, and how badly will they be beaten for a traffic infraction? Fuck SA, they’re a long way off from even being remotely close to having decent human rights.

I wonder if you are deliberately mischaracterizing their position, or simply ignorant of it. Weiss, et al, do not say that it is immoral to criticize offensive speech and would encourage people to do so. The basic “marketplace of ideas” view is that it is better to let bad ideas be aired and roundly criticized than to…

And there-in lies the problem, so clearly demonstrated by the posts here. Free speech and debate are dead. Why challenge those you disagree with, when it’s so much easier to try and ban them and maintain your ‘safe place’. Of course someone will label me a troll from the right, which will prove my point.

I agree that it is poor that a writer used a source that was fake and the opinion piece is meh.

Garsh, a group of people who wear black and attack people who say things they don’t like?

I’m not sure what the point of the article is. Antifa and the rest of the alt-left are facists, just like any extreme group.

Socialist financial policy + identity(race) politics + anti-free speech(suppression of opposition) = Fascism = Antifa
