  • I mean, when people point out that Joe Biden is a Neocon who supports Israel and USAs rightful dominant place in the world… Erm I agree with that and want to vote for him.

    I’m a Neocon. And proud of it and can defend a lot of my positions.


    What pisses me off about the new wave of conservatives is that it’s all reactionary. There is no guiding philosophy.

    With regards to neoconservatives: I know we get a bad rap since Bush. But events like Ukraine show the importance of us being the stalwart defenders and stepping up to challenges around the world.

    But thats the thing. I’ll tell you that while proudly wearing my colors as a Neocon. This ‘Libs of TikTok’ bullshit is just fucking awful politics. We can’t actually work or talk around our issues when people are pretending to be on the wrong sides of debates

    Politics shouldn’t be about ‘owning’ the other side. Politics should be about effectively communicating our beliefs to each other, especially our disagreements. And finding compromises where possible.


    Anyway, it’s Joever to some extent so I guess all in on Kamala. She’s still acceptable to my philosophy if only because Trump + JD Vance is such a bad choice. So y’all got my vote this year, at least temporarily.


  • Unlike you and your ilk, I’m willing to go outside the safe zone (fkn lol) and interact with people who have different opinions. Only cowards stay in their little bubbles chit talking day in and day out. And that’s a knock at both leftists and rightists.

    I’m a Republican. This area is outside my safe zone. But outrage politics affects us all and I judge people who engage in it harshly.

    But sure. Judge me harder daddy. I haven’t stated my opinion yet, I’m simply pointing out that you’re engaging in outrage politics and you probably shouldn’t be flexing on that.










  • Edgelords who are serious (or even joking) about this tragedy.

    Tomorrow at the RNC, watch it. Every right-winger will be using this as proof of political violence and blame the left.

    And the left will be angered and make more edgelords jokes and we lose the election in a few months. Well, at the current path anyway. None of this shit helps.


    With luck, cooler heads prevail and people remember why we have a calm President like Biden in charge right now.

    But now DNC will have this shit hanging over it. Just a few shitty protesters will make everyone in the country hate Democrats.



  • You fuckers (erm… not you specifically. But more like the edgelords) are turning Donald Trump into the next Regan. We will literally never hear the end of this for the rest of our lives.

    A successful assassination would have turned Trump into a martyr and only embolded the far right.

    A failed on: this case, will only embolden Donald Trump himself and the religious right will now see it as a sign that he’s been chosen by God himself.

    Good job fuckers. You are making us lose the election. And leftists are edgelording as if this was a good thing.


    Hitler was deposed by USA and Soviets kicking Germany’s ass. Who is going to fight USAs army today if an authoritarian like Trump gets the reins?

    Oh right. No one.




  • If Elon fucks it all to hell they’ll break the company into pieces, sell the various pieces to other auto manufacturers and life will move on

    You mean like Delorian? Or Fisker Ocean?

    Nah man. When a car company goes under, they’re dead. We know what it looks like. Otherwise, the #1 car recommend should be Fisker Ocean since its like $25k per car right now. But we all know that company is dead and no one will buy it out of bankruptcy, save those cars, or offer services (or parts) on those cars moving forward.

    Same thing if Tesla ever collapses. At best maybe some patents get bought out but no one will want to be left paying the bill and supporting the (now screwed) customer base.

    A bunch of auto manufacturers are switching their primary port, that’s another way of fucking your charging network

    I don’t think you realize how much Elon fucked over Superchargers with the firing.

    There were projects with $50,000+ to $300k amounts put up by local businesses as they prepared for Tesla Superchargers to be installed in their parking lots earlier this year.

    These businesses have gotten ZERO emails, phone or any other communication from Tesla. Why? Because the company fired everyone. Everyone involved in Superchargers is gone. That’s no more build out, no more maintenance, no more nothing.

    Presumably Elon will figure out (eventually) that this is a bad idea. But then what? He already betrayed a huge number of business customers. Who will want to install new Superchargers in their business after this misstep?


    Like I get it. Tesla is losing money and they needed to fire people to keep going. But its not a good look.



  • The charger network: Superchargers are so much more plentiful than the alternatives, and there’s still not a great central charging app. I have 3 different ones installed on my phone and honestly most of them suck besides Tesla’s. Non-tesla chargers are basically just at apartments, businesses, and malls. Very few of which actually help me

    Good thing Elon Musk fired the entire Supercharger team then.

    https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/inside-story-elon-musks-mass-firings-tesla-supercharger-staff-2024-05-15/

    Yes, Elon is a massive piece of shit. You know who else is? Every auto exec. The only difference is that they’re quiet and effective. Those old money fucks have done so much more harm to our planet because they know how to influence politics effectively. Something something, ethical consumption, something, something, capitalism

    Other autodealers aren’t fucking their own company over by destroying the top reason you listed for buying their cars. We’re well into the point where its clear that Elon is a terrible businessman not just morally, but also for you as the Tesla customer. There’s no way Superchargers can be maintained (let alone expand) if the team is gone.
