To some extent, they are the dog that caught the car. They have been actively working to make Americans dumber for at least 40 years. Supporting creationism, denying climate change, promoting xenophobia, homophobia, and a bunch of other prejudices. They missed how that would leave them vulnerable to having all their…

Shouldn’t be too shocking. Palin in 2008. The clown shows for the GOP primaries in 2012. Trump in 2016, MAGAs in 2018 and 2020...

I’d argue that Tucker Carlson dying would ultimately save lives, so hoping for that outcome wouldn’t make you a monster.

Agreed.  Who knows how many deaths he’s responsible for helping spread disinformation to further his ambitions.  There are a few people in this world whose leaving it would make the planet a better place.

the first part is plausible given how increasingly batshit the already batshit cultists have become lately, and the second part is certain.

But serialization still only applies when the 80% lower is sold with other parts intended to turn it into a firearm. If you read the regulation, it doesn’t appear affect manufacturers selling a piece of metal that resembles a firearm receiver but doesn’t have the ability to accept the necessary functional parts and…

Except that’s not what this new ATF rule does. So called “ghost guns” are legal to use and own under federal law and will remain so without updated legislation. This legislation doesn’t change that. A legally-possessed ghost gun used in a federal crime wouldn’t be treated any differently than a legally-possessed gun…

There are democrats that also support gun rights too. That is the reason the last director of the ATF didn’t make it through, several democrats were not going to let someone that over zealous on gun control get into power. Guns are not a republican vs democrat fight as much as many will have you believe. While a lot…

Where to begin?

Lol, no it isn’t “unfair”. Tesla showed this at a semi-public event and let people record it. How is that unfair?

Did.... Did you just drop ‘You started it!’? What are you, nine?
Anyway, I needed a good laugh. You see, describing your actions (to someone else, mind you) as seagull-like is hyperbole, not name-calling. To boot, you underscored my first point in that post (the one not addressed to you), probably without realizing it.

He just believes that hyperbole is not allowed in others.
He is really more of a seagull; he just flies in, drops some crap everywhere, and then squawks away when people engage him.

They aren’t sanctions, they are Special Economic Operations.

So kill EV adoption until we have a dramatic breakthrough in battery energy density, great idea.

I am very interested in your 300% tax on all existing EVs in the US. The Honda E and Renault Zoe would be hit by your tax. 

Fuck it all, no engines over 200 hp without paying for a more comprehensive license and any vehicle over 3000 lbs gets taxed at 300%.

My 2018 Mazda3 manual is listed at 3013 lbs. So even my compact (it’s smaller than my wife’s Cruze) compact car is heavier than that.

More taxes eh? Just what we all need.

a modern nissan sentra weighs more than that. thats how heavy cars are these days.

First of all, every single one of these heavy EVs has every safety system already baked in because of the higher overall cost. They have emergency braking, collision avoidance and lane centering as standard. Thus, they are better at avoiding hitting other obstacles than the average vehicle around them.
