    Normally I would care that it’s a fake story but in this case I don’t mind spreading it. That guy needs to pay for what he has done to our country.

        You know I might be just crazy enough to have even upvoted the original post.

        Seems unfair for only one side to have weaponized fake news

      The reason to care is that when Tesla does pull shenanigans with their cars, now everyone’s going to just call it “fake news”. This incident has just bought them all the cover in the world to be assholes.

      No, when you spread disparaging lies about someone it only makes their critics look less trustworthy in the future. It’s like the boy who cried wolf.

      Fake news is the tool of the enemy. You don’t need it when there is plenty of truth available as ammunition.

      And I am ready to look the other way, because why should I care about Musk when he hates me? There are other priorities.

      Actually, I will begin by not even fact-checking the original post. That’s right. I will vibe-comment (I hope I’m using this at least somewhat right. I’m very old in internet years, I’m so sorry).
