It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Everyone's hating on it but I actually love this design. I love the futuristic feel. Still not a fan of Musk obv

Everyone's hating on it because it's the dumbest, ugliest fucking thing ever on four wheels. It's futuristic in the way 70's silver-jumpsuits in a bad sci-fi B-movie were "futuristic."

The fucking Delorean looks ten times more "futuristic" than this lump of shit, and that was made literally over 40 years ago.

Guess I'm in the minority that actually likes this. I hate washing my car and I hate the maintenance of gas cars. I literally dgaf about what it looks like. I've never cared. Probably why I drive a beat-up Nissan leaf. Can it haul my shit around and go 400+ miles on charge? From what I've read, it's got a 6ft bed with added space in the frunk (or whatever they call that). If they can make that for under $50k, they'll have plenty of people buying it. These release candidate builds aren't meant to be final products. Now, if it looks like this when they deliver to customers, then people should complain.

I hate washing my car

This will be 10x worse then.

Fortunately Chinese companies are going hard into the EV space.

The base model (63 kWh) starts at RMB 178,800 (roughly $25K), the 86 kWh is RMB 198,800 ($27.8K), and the top-tier 100 kWh version starts at RMB 228,800 ($32K).

Not that many people that far left on the bell curve, so of course you're in the minority.
