    Is the Tesla the only EV car maker out there though? What about the others. Did they lie too?

              because Tesla specifically developed and publicly demonstrated battery swapping, and then abandoned it.

              Folks are pointing out Tesla because Tesla specifically deserves it.

                Ok, so what about the other EV cars that never even tried the battery swapping. Shouldn’t they catch heat for not doing it as well?

        Did they lie on behalf of Tesla? Did they force Tesla to lie?

        I don’t know, that’s what I’m asking. Did they lie about charging? How come they aren’t doing what this chinese company is doing?

          They did a demo of this exact thing in 2015, possibly faked, then verifiably lied and said that nobody was interested and never rolled it out.

            Why would they lie about that though, and how come other EV car companies haven’t done what the chinese company is doing?

              Same reason Elon Musk’s Tesla lies about anything - it’s a grift. They got carbon credits for pretending to have battery swap capabilities, and they suckered customers into buying overpriced vehicles by telling them that they’d drive themselves.

              My point is that all of these technologies are actually coming to pass years later.

                Ok, ok, so what about the other EV car makers? Because Tesla isn’t the only one who chose not to use the tech the same way the chinese company in teh article did.

                I mean, surely you wouldn’t have said all this really as just an excuse to crap on Musk because you don’t like him, right? Surely not!

                I mean, sure, he really kicked off the EV craze enough to put in the public perception more than anyone. Sure he did the same thing for Space X. But hey he’s a bajillionaire who didn’t program any of that shit by hand, right? So fuck him, right?

                I mean, that wouldn’t be the reason you left other EV makers out of your rant, right? Because or your PERSONAL hatred for him?

                I like Elon Musk! :)

                    I don’t think he’s a Nazi, but keep going. Hey, don’t forget to post that hitler/musk side-by-side gif! I know you are waiting for it! Dooo it.

                    I don’t think he’s a Nazi though. I did see a lot of nazi’s painting nazi symbols on Tesla’s parked in predominately Jewish neighborhoods. And pepole who would put a Nazi symbol on any Tesla they saw. Those people are def Nazis.

                  You tell me about other manufacturers. You’re the one who brought them up.

                  I’m mentioning Tesla solely because of the lies relating to this article.

                  If you’re such a Musk fan, how are you so clueless about his companies’ doings?

                    I’m mentioning Tesla solely because of the lies relating to this article.

                    Ok, but the article didn’t talk about Tesla. And we have other EV choices here in the US. So how come you aren’t talking about them? Because they aren’t doing the things talked about in this article, so are they in on the “lies” too?

                    I am a huge fan of Musk. He’s awesome. People on Lemmy cry all day. But he’s works hard and I admire him.

                    I know, I know,but but all rich people suck?! Big bad millionaires are evil! Eat the rich!

                    How’s that been working out for ya?
