So climate denial and no more green new deal?

I disagree. I think the Tesla is uglier. And I also hate Elon Musk so there's that.

Teslas are different. The brand is associated with Elon. No other car make is associated with a single person.

DH just leased a Toyota EV. He test drove several EVs, but not a Teslas. We both despise him, even before Trump.

No, it makes very good sense.

But you do you. You keep fighting for better wages for the five people still employed in auto manufacturing here. You win!

No. I don't believe in that. I believe in a free marketplace of ideas. Not trying to shut it down or delete it (like happens here every day).

Are we really going to live in a world where we make businesses choose political sides and then we only buy from companies on “our” side?

Back in the 80s people were boycotting Shell gas because of their presence in South Africa over apartheid.

The logical end game of this is so stupid. I imagine the vast majority of farmers and oil producers lean right.

Free marketplace means consumers can choose which businesses they want to support.
