Well, moral compass will be weighed up against personal finance (actual income has declined drastically in Norway) and whether Elon is a US problem or a Norway problem. A lot of people might think that Elon is a stinking Nazi turd, but we can’t smell him on this side of the Atlantic. Not a good way of approaching the matter, mind you. We should keep in mind that throughout modern history, the US has had a habit of making their problems everyone else’s, like the problematic uncle at the family Christmas gathering.

I certainly agree, people should be more conscious of where they allow their money to end up. I have a VW now, but would probably not have bought one in 1938.

The sales of Model Y have actually declined in Norway, though they’re still slightly up from the same month last year. The main reason is most likely that they launched a 2,99% interest sale and reintroduced free charging at Tesla stations. Good luck to the buyers with selling it in a couple years, though.

I think he’s smarter than he lets on. Being a doofus for the whole world to see is for some reason highly profitable.

Very good point. Many personal journeys of discovery and liberation make for an exodus.

He’s an attention-seeking edgelord and a buffoon, but I highly doubt the Nazi allegations. This comes from someone who genuinely believes in the right to punch Nazis. We need to be careful about throwing the Nazi-card in all directions, or the real ones will slip through the cracks (some have already managed to skip into positions of power while us plebs are squabbling). He did a couple of insanely stupid things that he should have grown out of by age 15, hopefully he learned from that.

Not personally a fan of Pewds, but this is a good thing. Dude’s still got 110M subscribers, he can reach an enormous viewer base. Not only that, but he’s got a magical ability to reach younger people in a way that grumpy old farts like me can’t (I’m five years older than him, which makes me a fossil). If Linux has had one problem through all its years on the good, green Earth, it’s marketing. Pewds might be just what it needs for this to finally be the Year of the Linux Desktop.
