‘His rhetoric has made Tesla toxic’: is Elon Musk driving away his target market?

Elon #Musk has long flirted with #rightwing politics, and delights in pushing an image of himself as a contrarian showman. Yet in recent months the billionaire’s political allegiances have started to raise a question for Tesla, the company that he built into the world’s largest electric carmaker: just how far can he go before customers start to abandon his products?

The German pharmacy chain Rossmann was one of the first to put its head above the parapet this week. The family-owned company announced that it would not add to the 34 #Teslas in its company fleet because of Musk’s endorsement of Donald #Trump for US president.

“Trump has repeatedly called #ClimateChange a hoax,” wrote Raoul Roßmann, a spokesperson for Rossmann. “This attitude is in stark contrast to Tesla’s mission to contribute to environmental protection through the production of electric cars.”

Deek on the subject of the #warming of the oceans....the reason is down to massive under water #volcanic activity.....this has resulted in 20% more H20 up in the #atmosphere....this has to come back down, thus more rain....the geoengineering of the rainfall to fall in preferred areas where the populations need influenced is the man made aspect of this winters #climate-change. See Tom Nelson Podcast for more of this. Cheers enjoyed the show!

Sanders Says 'Children and Innocent People Do Not Deserve to Be Punished for Acts of Hamas'
JAKE JOHNSON
Oct 11, 2023

..."U.S. Sen. #Bernie Sanders on Wednesday called Israel's total siege of the #Gaza Strip a breach of international law and urged the Biden administration to work with the global community to bring about an end to the escalating #violence, which has already taken a grisly toll on #civilians in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territory.

"For many, it is no secret that Gaza has been an open-air prison, with millions of people struggling to secure basic necessities," Sanders (I-Vt.) said in a statement. "#Hamas' #terrorism will make it much more difficult to address that tragic reality and will embolden #extremists on both sides, continuing the cycle of violence."

The senator added that while he welcomes the Biden administration's offer of "solidarity and support to Israel" in the wake of Hamas' deadly attack, "we must also insist on restraint from Israeli forces attacking Gaza and work to secure U.N. humanitarian access."
...
Sanders said Wednesday that the focus of the international community should be on "reducing humanitarian suffering and protecting innocent people on both sides of this conflict" as Israel prepares for a ground invasion of Gaza and continues its bombing campaign, leveling entire neighborhoods and damaging schools, medical facilities, and other civilian infrastructure."...

"The targeting of civilians is a war crime, no matter who does it," said U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders.

#Israel's national unity government has collapsed - Yair Lapid has refused to be part of it and is demanding that two parties (Itamar Ben-Gvir's Otzma Yehudit and Simcha Rotman's Tzionut Datit) be excluded from the government.

#Lapid said that the government was "full of #extremists" - and that he himself would only agree to join it under the above conditions.

At the press conference, journalists shouted at Lapid: "Are you out of your mind? Do you think this is appropriate now?"

How dare you not to sit in the same government as the Jewish Taliban and xenophobic lunatics?

Deutsche Welle: German intel: AfD taken over by extremist factions

— "The head of #Germany's domestic intelligence agency has warned that the Alternative for Germany (AfD) has become increasingly extremist and anti-democratic as the far-right party, surging in opinion polls, picks new candidates for #EU elections.

Thomas Haldenwang, president of Germany's Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV), told the #DPA news agency that some of the #AfD candidates had expressed "far-right extremist conspiracy theories" during the party conference in Magdeburg, where the selections were made over the weekend.

Haldenwang said party members were swapping openly racist theories such as the "Great Replacement," which holds that political elites are deliberately introducing nonwhite migrants into Europe to supplant the white race."

The #colonial project has poisoned #Israel, as feared by its most prescient leaders, including Moshe Dayan and Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, who was assassinated by a #right-wing Jewish extremist in 1995.
Israel is an #apartheid state that rivals and often surpasses the onetime #savagery and #racism of apartheid South Africa.
Its democracy — which was always exclusively for Jews — has been hijacked by #extremists, including current Prime Minister Benjamin #Netanyahu, who have implemented #racial laws that were once championed mainly by marginalized fanatics such as Meir Kahane.
The #Israeli public is infected with racism. “Death to Arabs” is a popular chant at Israeli soccer matches.
Jewish mobs and vigilantes, including #thugs from right-wing youth groups such as Im Tirtzu, carry out indiscriminate acts of vandalism and #violence against #dissidents, #Palestinians, Israeli #Arabs and the hapless African immigrants who live crammed into the slums of #TelAviv.
Israel has promulgated a series of #discriminatory laws against non-Jews that eerily resemble the #racist Nuremberg Laws that disenfranchised Jews in Nazi Germany.
The Communities Acceptance Law permits exclusively Jewish towns in Israel’s Galilee region to bar applicants for residency on the basis of “suitability to the community’s fundamental outlook.”

Why the Past 10 Years of American #Life Have Been Uniquely #Stupid

source: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2022/05/social-media-democracy-trust-babel/629369/

#Babel is not a #story about tribalism. It’s a story about the #fragmentation of everything.

...

The #digital #revolution has shattered that mirror, and now the public inhabits those broken pieces of glass. So the public isn’t one thing; it’s highly fragmented, and it’s basically mutually hostile. It’s mostly people yelling at each other and living in bubbles of one sort or another.

...

“Those who express sympathy for the views of opposing groups may experience backlash from their own cohort.” In other words, political #extremists don’t just shoot darts at their enemies; they spend a lot of their ammunition targeting dissenters or nuanced thinkers on their own team. In this way, #social #media makes a political #system based on #compromise grind to a halt.

Texas Law Empowers Vigilantism and Citizen-Turned-Informers to Stop Abortion

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/sep/08/texas-abortion-vigilantes-sb8-citizens-sue

The Nazi's did this and the East German Stasi, with their huge nets of citizen-turned-informers did this as well.
Now the so-called Great State of Texas is falling suit, forcing Doctors and clinics into silence and bankruptcy by a clever circumvention of the letter of the law.

Anyone, without proof of harm, can sue anyone for helping someone get a medical abortion after six weeks even if it is for saving the life of a woman. A rapist's mother can technically sue as well but so I'm told, not the rapist. Well, thank God for that little help. How about an incestuous father? Or any one else, even if they are out of state, especially since they stand to make a tax payer funded bounty of $10,000 if their snitch on innocent people successfully results in a conviction.

Tell me how this is essentially different from the Taliban stoning women who were falsely accused of infidelity by a man who resented them. While the now illegitimate supreme court stands by and refuses to do anything about this cruel outrage.

Perhaps now, you are beginning to see where this is going?

Megan Hunt, Blocks Abortion Ban

"And if I go to the Pearly Gates and meet your God someday—which sounds great, I hope I do—I don’t think I’m gonna get in any trouble for killing all of your bills who vote for this. I don’t think your God’s gonna have any problem with that. And I don’t think I’m gonna see any of you there either."

George Monbiot ~ Why Does The Media Love War So Much?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AJIU7ud2dw

'The #media helped create #chaos in #Afghanistan, now they want to wash their hands.' For those who are too young to remember, it's hard to imagine what the atmosphere was like in October 2001. It was almost #fascistic. Most of the media sought to shut down and #demonise anyone who challenged the #war in Afghanistan. We were " #extremists" and " #terrorist #sympathizers".
