Well then, shouldn't be long before we're all terrorists, seeing as this won't be the end of it.

Just a lil' FYI: you can use a marker/pen to draw on slices of cheese before you need to toss them "somewhere" and start another piece.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 19 points 14 hours ago

I mean....ok.

that means we can storm the capital and it's ok, right?

Oh noo, it caused mass terror throughout the country ... when people saw mildly vandalised pre-shitty cars, PTSD for life.

"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."

Fun fact: a replacement windshield for a tesla is on average 1,200 - 2,000 dollars because of their dumb as fuck design

[–] Albbi@lemmy.ca 14 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago)

Cyberwindshield: $1200

Cyberwindshield wiper: 3 months backorder

Making a Nazi supporter cry: priceless

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 12 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

I heard the horse cock of a windshield wiper is almost irreplaceable because it's 4 feet long and in limited supply.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

It's also made significantly more expensive by the fact that it IS an actual cock from a horse.

Purebred only, on Musk's insistence.

Hand picked by the man himself I hear

Inspired by the Bible.

You're not technically wrong since they were just early to the party with driver assistance & Lane departure warning/avoidance systems, but since the USA made those types of systems mandatory for all cars in 2023, most vehicles 2023+ will now have a similar cost.

for context the windshield of a big ass semi truck costs between $65-225 or just 18% at worst or 3% at best
and they're pretty large too

cost src

For the cybertruck? The design of the others are mostly reasonable, I would assume every replacement part for the cybertruck is much more expensive since it's so fucking ridiculous. I've never had to replace a windshield fortunately so I don't know how much they normally cost.

[–] TheMightyCanuck@sh.itjust.works 2 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

'mostly reasonable' they integrate into the roof glass and their shape makes them 10x the price of a new windshield

I can get a replacement for a 2010 Ford for about 200$

So what you're saying is: the only wqy to not be a terrorist is to threaten elected officials until I get my way?

I'm off to be an upstanding citizen.

[–] painfulasterisk1@lemmy.ml 7 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Can't be any elected official, the waiver only applies toward a specific group.

[–] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

And you have to belong to a specific group.

Pantone of racism

[–] Placebonickname@lemmy.world 35 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Gotta be one of the biggest/fastest drops in a company’s stock value since Cutthroat Island opened in theaters.

[–] Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org 10 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

Which is really upsetting, because that was a good movie and the SNES game was great.

[–] Placebonickname@lemmy.world 6 points 20 hours ago

Movie was fun, it just didn’t do well as far as sales go and it was expensive - so it’s considered a “box office bomb”.

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 4 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

SNESDrunk has entered the chat

[–] Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org 3 points 19 hours ago

I was recently reminded of it because of the vid, but the game always was, and is, fun.

[–] Coreidan@lemmy.world 7 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago) (1 children)

Terrorism only applies to brown or poor people.

If you’re rich you get a free pass to do anything including genocide.

[–] milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee 2 points 7 hours ago

It's only rich people who can boycott Teslas (poor folk wouldn't afford them in the first place) so it must be pardonable to boycott! Problem solved!

[–] Imhotep@lemmy.world 11 points 17 hours ago (1 children)
[–] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 5 points 16 hours ago

ohh I see it now...

[–] starshipHighwayman69@lemmy.ml 11 points 18 hours ago

This isn't even vandalism. Zero windshields were harmed by the paint.

[–] Signtist@lemm.ee 14 points 19 hours ago

Remember, Trump doesn't say things that are true - or even things he thinks are true - he only says things that he thinks will benefit him to say. So yes, it benefits him to say Jan 6 wasn't domestic terrorism, and that vandalism of his boss' cars is domestic terrorism.

[–] Caffeinated_Sloth@lemmy.world 20 points 21 hours ago

Plutocracy: Destroy Capitol? Ok. Destroy Capital? Not on my watch!

[–] ABetterTomorrow@lemm.ee 15 points 21 hours ago

It’s always the opposite with these weirdos.

[–] taxiiiii@lemmy.world 8 points 19 hours ago

They're clearly destabilizing the countries integrity by checks notes vandalizing cars! Property damage is obviously much worse than actual violence, so long as the property is expensive enough. /s
