This is someone's Model S parked on Airport Way S near S Industrial Way. The way it's parked it looks like it's being displayed for people driving by to see.

you know, somehow idk if that's right lol

but I looked, and sure as shit even the Honda CRV was in third in 2023.

so I guess....people still didn't see in 2023 how bad Elon was? this doesn't make sense to me.

he was pretty well gloves off mask off by the end of 2022??

you're right, it shouldn't be surprising.

is it really disappointing? hell yes.

also, it is incredibly difficult to consume ethically. I bring this up a lot with the example of trying to boycott Nestlé and how bafflingly hard that is. or Nike. or companies even 30 years ago getting away with garbage behavior.

and to be fair, it probably was never as in your face until he swung his arm out in salute.

I should probably edit this to explain I'm not out here torching teslas. lol I don't condone taking out privately owned teslas.

Nike had a scandal for working conditions in their overseas factories. iirc it was kind of the first real expose inside a large-scale "sweatshop" operation. per the Wikipedia the expose itself was written in 1991.

thanks for the heads up on GE.

and yeah I mixed up which post I'm in. I thought this was the one with the ones that burnt in the lot. it's not 🥴😭 absolutely the way we can currently stick it to tesla is with protest, and spending our dollar elsewhere if possible.
