    Imagine a species surviving world war 2 and the Holocaust then still being pro-nazi. So fucking stupid.

    Weird it says “paused” and not “terminated”. I think there’s something wrong with my glasses, am I seeing it correctly?

      Yeah, I’ve seen variations of this headline a million times. Tbh while I certainly approve of not giving Elon money, at this point I can only think moves like this as performative actions to get some free good PR.

      Maybe waiting to see which side comes out on top. Kinda like Volkswagen. (Yes I know I didn’t exactly happen like that)

    I’m sure this is a given reason.

    I can’t help think posting ads on a platform owned by the head of a rival car company just as that company is tanking out and desperately flailing around to improve sales might be inadvisable for a whole host of reasons, though.

    Hyundai executive notices a man with a small moustache being hastily ushered out of the X offices main board room.

    Hyundai Executive : “Was that Hitler?”

    Elon steps in front of board room door : “That wasn’t Hitler, that was a woman.”

    Hyundai Executive : “That looked like Hitler.”

      Have clearly never owned a Hyundai. My mom had a cheapo Hyundai Accent that she drove until it hit 300k miles. She only upgraded because she got tired of manual transmission, hand crank windows, and no power locks.

        It’s not even just cheapo stuff anymore. They’ve really stepped up their game in the last several years, with ICE and a good range of EVs. I know a few people that have Hyundai EVs, and they all love them.

        Their Genesis badge is also legit luxury. I would say they might be the best value in luxury cars right now because they can’t yet command the price the more established brands can.

        These aren’t the shitty tin cans from when I was younger. If you’re looking for a new car don’t dismiss KIA/Hyundai/Genesis without checking them out.
