Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

This. The only reason I have a tesla is the supercharger network. There is simply no argument for any other car brand if you are only considering full electric. I hate Elon as much as the next guy but that won't change my mind about buying a car from him. I'd be a real fuckin idiot if I made financial decisions to spite a billionaire who doesn't even know I exist and never will.
That said, once the Ford transition to NACS is complete in 2025(?) I'll definitely ditch Tesla. As a union worker myself I'd prefer to drive a union-built car, and as a bonus it would be nice to not have people assume I'm an Elon fan just because I drive a car made by a company he works at part-time.
Elon is a giant fucking tool. But lets not act like the other billionaires or multi multi millionaire CEOs of the other companies aren't giant pieces of shit. They are. They are just smart enough to keep their mouth shut publicly.
