How the fuck does actually going out to protests and being arrested in the process count as slacktivism? Have you been arrested for what you believe in?
I don’t go out and protest. Not my thing. I have a job.
I write my senators and I donate to politicians who share my values. Anyone who supports fracking. Doesn’t get a dollar for me. Anyone who is anti-abortion. Doesn’t get a dollar from me.
Can you list how the world has changed since her protest? Doesn’t seem overly effective.
Eyyy, look at this guy. He openly supports the political ideology whose representatives worldwide have stonewalled every action to combat climate change, and he thinks we should give anything he says on the subject due consideration.
But, hey, I get it. You already gave a bunch of money to Elon, probably before he revealed how stupid and corrupt he is, and now you have to continue justifying that purchase to yourself. Don’t let me stand in your way.
Tesla has serious quality control issues. They have serious design issues like being deliberately obtuse in the name of “innovation”. They haven’t made any significant improvements to any of their cars since the launch.
Most importantly, they have serious leadership issues. Particularly, a long history of deception and broken promises.
Musk was in the right place at the right time to launch Tesla. He’s got a pretty good corner on the battery market, and hopefully he doesn’t abuse that.
You vote against your own self-proclaimed interests.
You can’t vote conservative in the 21st century without being either a self-interested jackass trying to protect your own hoard of wealth, or an idiot who has been convinced by the wealth hoarders that conservatives are looking out for anyone but them.
The people you vote for are the reason why this planet is on a collision course with fucked. The only reason Elon started bought an electric car company is because he saw a market ripe for exploitation and convinced idiots that he was a Stable Genius who wanted to save the world so they’d buy his shittily-made cars. He’s the richest person on the planet and could easily solve untold numbers of problems threatening humanity and Earth by himself, but he’ll only do the things that will make him even more money in the process.
I vote for my own interest but thanks for the advice.
Neither party has a viable solution for climate change. I think the democrats is worse than the republicans.
Also you don’t understand wealth. If Elon converted his wealth to cash, he’d no longer be at Tesla, space x, boring, etc. that wealth is the value of those companies.
Personally I’d like to see him take a step back from Tesla before he runs it into the ground but I doubt he will.
Oh well gee I stand corrected. You’re a paragon of climate conscientiousness. I will not take anyone who posts articles from Fox News seriously. Actually in any matter come to think of it.

Exactly. They’ve come here to troll and look for a fight. Don’t engage them.

Your response is a troll response. In no way do you engage in the topic or the argument
While you may think slacktivism is valuable. I don’t.

not everyone has the privilege of using money to get politicians to do what they want.
Everyone can donate. You just have to prioritize things in your life.
most people prioritize food and housing and bills over paying off politicians.
again, not everyone is in your privileged position of being able to afford to pay off politicians to do what you want.
I doubt any money he’s donating to politicians is going towards any of his causes.
What else would you expect from a conservative?
So you’re a slacktivist. Makes sense.
Hey, thanks for letting me know I need to block you and your community.
K, thx, bi!
I’d like to engage in discussion with you, what exactly is slacktivism as you define it?
Update: 5 hours and no response to me but plenty of others in this post. Clearly not discussing in good faith.
And? Where is my point wrong?

What a jokester.
He’s a mod for a conservative community and he’s drinking the Kool aid HARD
Yeah Tesla sure is against electric cars.
Tesla is against good electric cars.
Tesla is a phenomenal car. The best electric on the market.

Teslas are less likely to catch fire than an ice car.

Quality is universally true. The only issue I’ve had is some paint issues. The paint is 100% garbage.
Innovation ? They’ve had plenty. The octovalve is a perfect example.
Electric cars don’t help save the planet, they help save the car industry.
Walkable / bikeable cities, and better public transit are better.
Well first your insinuation you’re part of the cause. We’ll start there.
I’m part of the cause by driving electric and running solar? Please elaborate.

You think the Republicans (drill baby, drill) have a better answer than Democrats (subsidize Green energy)…
I’m for nuclear power. It’s more sustainable.
