Looking forward to the headlines: "Tesla Robotaxi passengers need medical attention after Robotaxi hits speed bump at 70mph"

Guy in a Dogecoin t-shirt and a neckbrace: "i-i-it was r-r-really great."

We live in the dumbest timeline.

I just read on the article about how all the "tesla influencers" are refusing to comment on news media and instead insisting they only talk about it on Twitter.

Couldn't be more manufactured consent if they tried.

I read that in RFK Jr.'s voice

That part really pissed me off.

I think folks see it for what it is. Sales are cratering, public spaces that are not twitter are increasingly intolerant of the Tesla fanboys glazing the supposed tech advantage ( that we can see with our own eyes is not real )

Is he the one that sounds like he smokes 30 packs a day?

And these greedy, unscrupulous, technofascist enabling influencers promoted it. This is our current normal apparently.I hate mainstream internet culture with a passion.

Yeah but he has a disease that makes him sound like that. If he weren't such a terrible human being I would feel bad about making fun of him.

The sad thing is these things will probably not be taken of the road until a few dozen people have been run over.

I don't think he and Alex Jones sound exactly the same.

I don't think Alex Jones has a disease that affects his voice, I think he just yells about psychic vampires so often that's just what his voice has turned into.

The source is a fake website with the only articles being about criticizing Tesla.
I am not a fan of Tesla or Musk, to say the least, but this is no better than X's propaganda....

Pretty bold claim. Who can we trust in this scenario? How do we trust you?

Well you can check the site yourself, that ain't too hard to do

I did, and now I did again. I don't see/understand any clues to it being a "fake website" after browsing around and looking at various pages and articles. ‍️ Can somebody help me understand? (Besides the condescending "just look at it", thanks!)

I know you don’t live here so you can just be relaxed and ummm acckktually from behind your keyboard. But please understand that real humans live on the streets that this dangerous machine is careening through, and it’s only a matter of time before it kills someone. Intentional acts of violence must be stopped immediately, and they don’t need a devil’s advocate. Please watch any of the footage from the last 3 days of operation, it’s very straightforward and clear to any observer just how fucked up and dangerous these machines are.

We don't.

Robotaxi Drives Double the Speed Limit, Hits Speed Bumps at Full Speed… Tesla Influencers Describe It as “Excellent.” - Lemmy.World

Come for the video of a Tesla Robotaxi driving double the speed limit and hitting speed bumps like they are Mario Kart ramps… … But stay for the conversation about social media silos and corporate disinformation campaigns!

Oh shit Thanks for the clarity. I knew my gut feeling was tingling in the right frequency in this case.
