MAGA Is Losing It Over VW

The MAGA media/crowd, is losing its shit, because an actress said she sold her Tesla, and bought a VW EV in its place.

They "own" her now, because Hitler liked VW.

They apparently are not aware that the year is 2022, and that while Lincoln was a Republican, the GOP today is not a champion of racial equality.
A few months ago they hated Tesla and musk because he was all woo electric vehicles and their impact on climate change. Now that musk has fallen in with them he is one of the new gods of their republican Pantheon. So VW is the new enemy when no one cares before. Also it makes no sense since they embrace neo Nazis. So what do they care anyway.

when a single person replacing a car triggers mass outrage or applause, it's possibly a sign of mental illness on the part of those obsessed with this.

@SusanInFlorida People should be free to base their purchases on their belief systems. They should, however, ground it in reality.

@Northwest the worlds top scientists are advancing the idea that there is no actual "fixed" reality. because we all experience the world differently (senses, upbringing, random encounters) our perception of reality is wildly disparate. it's pointless for to spend huge amounts of time trying to convince others that my reality is the right one.

Perhaps you can share a sample of these top scientists?

because we all experience the world differently (senses, upbringing, random encounters) our perception of reality is wildly disparate.

So, if a person in Ethiopia, is shot and killed by a rebel, and a soldier is shot and killed in Ukraine, their deaths are different realities?

While our perception of what happens around may be influenced by our family of origin, and life experience, reality is as real as a heart attack.

it's pointless for to spend huge amounts of time trying to convince others that my reality is the right one.

Yes, there is a point of diminishing returns, but I fail to see what that's got to do with my post.

Interesting. Are they going to give up their Ford vehicles, then?
Hitler was a painter and vegetarian too. Does that make every artist and vegan a mass murderer too in their eyes? 🤔

@NerdyPotato If he had been a good painter, the world may have been spared a word war. He was not a vegan, or a vegetarian, not sure how this rumor initially started. VW makes cars in the US, and it also owns Audi, Lamborghini, Bentley, Porsche and Ducati.

It is 2022, but they have yet to figure it out.
If they hate EVs, why do they like Teslas?

@LeopoldBloom Because Musk bought twitter and restored Trump's foghorn.
@trollslayer It's hilarious. They hate EVs and "big tech" while idolizing a man who made his fortune in both industries. Just more proof that conservatives don't really have an ideology, they have memes.

This is an example of picking anything, real or imagined to use as a weapon against something. I'm glad everyone's so astute and socially conscious, and no doubt they're aware a lot of companies are founded in racist theories and histories, like:

New York Life
Tiffany and Co
Aetna
Brooks Brothers
Norfolk Southern Rail Road
Bank of America
U.S.A. Today
Wachovia
AIG (American International Group)
JPMorgan Chase
Wells Fargo
Ford Auto

And that's just the outwardly racists bunch. There's a rich history of discrimination again the poor, women, same sex people and couples... If you ask me, they ought to mind their own "wokeness" every time they promote the opposite of their religious teachings.

Interesting given their love of authoritarians. I'd guess "We hate Hitler" is the best way they can provide cover for their supporters.

Lincoln was a liberal RINO, wake uppppp /s

Dunno how MAGA attempts this while simultaneously tolerating Holocaust deniers
