My thing is, I don't trust a Chinese car company to remember to install the air bags. Or the brake pads. I don't trust the batteries to not catch on fire or the seats to not give me herpes.
Meanwhile, in the real world we have Cybertrucks that can slice off fingers, have gas pedals that can get stuck in full acceleration, steering that breaks, and get bricked by a car wash or a small puddle. And that’s all without mentioning the pedophile Neo-Nazi CEO.
For fuck's sake. What did I miss?
Yeah, Teslas are also complete garbage that should all be confiscated and scrapped, the company shut down and the CEO, board of directors and all shareholders should die penniless and cold.
This doesn't negate the core tenet of Chinese culture: Negligence.
GM let a woman rot in prison on murder charges for years rather than admit in court it knew about the fault ignition locks.
