The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Maybe people shouldn’t buy products from Someone who spouts fascism from every orifice and did an obvious and blatant fascist salute TWICE at a presidential inauguration. Maybe if they can afford one of these dumpster fires on wheels they should break their contract and sell it or just put it in storage until the contract expires and drive a hybrid or even an electric Lexus like someone with a functioning cerebral cortex.

FAFO

People have had many of those cars long before any of this happened though? You're saying people should have seen this coming 6 years in advance or something?

i dint know why anyone would buy anything besides a Toyota or Honda product American automotive corporations have shown time and again they put profitability and planned obsolescence over consumer trust and vehicle reliability in every instance. And if consumers could do their research and just understand that the WV revolution will never happen with the industry relying on LiFePo batteries. The mining of lithium salts is very harmful for the environment and the people doing it who are virtually all exploited third world inhabitants in countries with regulatory committees weak enough to allow mass exploitation of the labor force to ensure EV’s are profitable. We need to double down on solar tech and improve its efficiency. There is a brand from Germany, SONO, they manufacture a solar vehicle and if they had the amount of capital musk has conned off the American taxnpayers maybe we would see a path to a true sustainable form of personal transportation in the next 5 decades. But as things are it isnt possible. There is a bottleneck for LiFePo battery production. We would beed to increase output by at least 1000% to ensure we could meet consumer demand for new vehicles with ev tech. Not to mention the cordless power tool industry, disposable vapes and all the other industries that rely on this tech. So people have been buying into a mass delusion through advertising propaganda/pr just to stuff musks pockets at our expense
