No dealerships burned up. Some cars at dealerships burned up. Exaggeration doesn't help you

You started by specifying BYD, I easily found multiple fires at other brand dealerships.

I just used them as an example and was being silly when i used "crisp", feel free to play semantics all you want

You say semantics. I say a false statement.

It's exactly what you see over and over in media headlines and reporting around EVs and fires. As soon as you look at facts, oh, surprise surprise that's wrong!

If I had a history of saying what your accusing me of saying, then I'd deserve this. But I don't. I claimed some EV dealerships burned down, you complained but then you provide more examples of EV dealerships burning down. This is the only time ive talked about it. I've talked about this subject with you far longer than anyone else about it, here or IRL...which is why I said you're putting words in my mouth. I'm done, bye

What? Irrelevant.

I claimed some EV dealerships burned down, you complained but then you provide more examples of EV dealerships burning down.

No, you claimed 10 BYD dealerships were burned to crisp. I showed it was neither a BYD problem alone (other brands have fires at dealerships), nor in fact were the dealerships 'burned to a crisp'. In the last BYD incident, the majority of cars at the dealership were in fact neither burned nor crispy at all. 7 cars were burnt, and several damaged.

This is the only time ive talked about it. I’ve talked about this subject with you far longer than anyone else about it, here or IRL…which is why I said you’re putting words in my mouth. I’m done, bye

So, you talking is me putting words in your mouth? I keep dragging you back to your original false/misleading comment.
