Is this romantic or a red flag?
  • Germany passed a number of laws in the wake of the Third Reich and the Holocaust. The idea being that if such speech was banned, it could prevent the next one from getting a foothold. It definitely sounds like this is what they're referring to

  • Congress has always been hostile to women trying to use the bathroom
  • You're solving a very different problem. You're addressing how to make restrooms better for all members of Congress.

    The bill in question is about how to publicly hurt a minority group, in order to galvanize their supporters.

  • Rep. Nancy Mace says her anti-trans bathroom bill 'absolutely' targets Rep.-elect Sarah McBride
  • It can be because of certain individuals, but it must apply equally to all.

    You didn't usually see it applied to a real person, but there are countless examples of it being applied to large corporations. For example, Florida can (and has) passed laws that apply to (e.g.) all amusement parks that operate their own emergency services. It was pretty clear that it would only affect Disney World. But at least in theory, it would apply to any others that opened up.

  • X adds Twitch to its advertising boycott lawsuit
  • It would be interesting to see how that plays out in court. That clip shows that the CEO himself is aware of the concerns, and refuses to address them. It also implicitly acknowledges that the reasoning was because of those issues, and not a conspiracy to harm ex-Twitter.

  • Best PHEVs in the US market?
  • Depending on where you are, double check the chargers where you would need them. Plug share is useful for this, particularly in their trip planning mode (desktop only). I've found that there are a lot more chargers on my routes than I had initially thought, and it only required slight changes in my plans to use them.

  • I wonder when we will all be sent to the gulag.
  • It'll be the LGBT groups, just like last time. Do you hear how violent the rhetoric has become about trans people? They're also a small enough and defenseless group.

    But yes, it will be other groups before atheists.

  • Toyota says California-led EV mandates are ‘impossible’ as states fall short of goal
  • Tesla absolutely does not have the manufacturing capacity. The others would have to retool their existing lines, which is something that happens constantly. It's part of why each model is only made at certain, specific factories.

    The problem is, of course, demand. Chevy and Ford could ramp up their production pretty quickly, but they won't until demand climbs.

    The California law is going to meet challenges, such as this one. Either they'll relent (as Toyota clearly wants), or they'll need to offer better incentives. The difficulty for many people with getting home charging is a deterrent that cannot be ignored

  • Show these trumpers what a failing economy looks like.
  • Wages rising? Not if they can help it. Other people mentioned prison labor. But they're overlooking child labor, which is already being brought back in multiple states. Throw in some pretty weakly disguised slave labor in the form of company stores, and there's no reason to pay actual workers what they're worth.
