Did the police actually plant drugs on black people in the past or is that a conspiracy theory?

I'm sure there were at least a few cases. Some people are a bit fucked

Yeah. I get the sense that it probably happened was less than what you hear. I base that assertion on the disproven claim that cops are indiscriminately shooting black people today. I’m assuming that drug plants probably happened to white people too, but no one talks about it.

Ah yeah

We generally get an overly simplistic view of historical events

@Salacious Swanky Cat thing is, electric cars are seen as something of a pariah here

@Deleted User really? That’s interesting. Most people in the us don’t care, but are skeptical.

Tesla? Okay cool, have fun with your $100k hot wheels, retard

Hybrid Camry? Wow, so big, fag

Prius/Lexus CT200h? Wow, what are you, a grandma?

Electric cars are what happens when people are tired of the Prius

Hybrid Civic? Which of your hipster friends are you trying to fuck you limpdick?

Both in terms of bragging about having one and making fun of someone who has one

Well, people do rag tesla because they are expensive. Lol. I will never buy a Prius because of how smug some environmentalist spoke about it to me.

Pretty much the attitude here

Cue obligatory South Park reference

I will never buy a Tesla because of the parts, and the whole “ooooooh it’s saving the world” attitude around it

Nevermind the battery production is worse than anything regular fossil fuels will ever have on its record...

Everyone just owns Civics in Canada

Ugh. You should see the attitude on some of these forums. Tesla is practically a religion for them. Question it and they freak out.

It would be the perfect getaway driver car

@Beemann I heard

I’m not a big fan of Honda’s in general though

More an Audi/Holden kinda guy

There's not enough room in a Tesla if you have testicles

@Deleted User that’s not exactly true, battery production is less impactful than fossil fuels.

@Salacious Swanky Cat oh? Even with the rare earth mining involved?

@Salacious Swanky Cat on a more practical note, I used to work in a panel/body shop before I opened my takeaway, and we had to fix several Tesla’s

@Deleted User yes, mining is involved, but it will ultimately be for less physical material than fossil fuels. Plus it can be recycled. The obnoxious attitudes of ev supporters try to make it sound like nothing happens.

Parts were just high retard in terms of sourcing, each one had to sit in our garage for _at least six months_ before we got anywhere near fixing it

By the time we get the parts, the starter battery would be long dead, ie we had to order them too

Which would take another month or two before we get them

The worst was a car we got in in January 2017; the car was brought back to the customer in April 2018

@Deleted User yes, the success of tesla is definitely questionable because they are nowhere near prime time, but that’s not an indictment of the technology.

Fair enough

But yeah, it’s that side of it that’s convinced me never to get one

Nothing beats the note on a good old V8 or higher engine, too

😛

I’m not buying a Tesla either.

Lol. I personally want people to buy EVs because of the technology’s merit. I don’t want mandates for them. The ev enthusiasts want mandates. I’m concerned about it.

Haha, _wow_
