"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."

is this from the Bee Movie reboot?

Just a lil' FYI: you can use a marker/pen to draw on slices of cheese before you need to toss them "somewhere" and start another piece.

[–] chaogomu@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Cheese? only use American and only in extremely hot areas.

The real joy is using slices of bologna.

Or, if you want to go hard, get some sponges and soak them in acetone. But that's not for Cybertrucks. They need lemon juice and salt. Just mix up a batch and fill a squirt gun.

[–] DeusUmbra@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Well then, shouldn't be long before we're all terrorists, seeing as this won't be the end of it.

Fun fact: a replacement windshield for a tesla is on average 1,200 - 2,000 dollars because of their dumb as fuck design

[–] Albbi@lemmy.ca 16 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Cyberwindshield: $1200

Cyberwindshield wiper: 3 months backorder

Making a Nazi supporter cry: priceless

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I heard the horse cock of a windshield wiper is almost irreplaceable because it's 4 feet long and in limited supply.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 2 days ago (2 children)

It's also made significantly more expensive by the fact that it IS an actual cock from a horse.

Purebred only, on Musk's insistence.

Hand picked by the man himself I hear

Inspired by the Bible.

You're not technically wrong since they were just early to the party with driver assistance & Lane departure warning/avoidance systems, but since the USA made those types of systems mandatory for all cars in 2023, most vehicles 2023+ will now have a similar cost.

for context the windshield of a big ass semi truck costs between $65-225 or just 18% at worst or 3% at best
and they're pretty large too

cost src

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

For the cybertruck? The design of the others are mostly reasonable, I would assume every replacement part for the cybertruck is much more expensive since it's so fucking ridiculous. I've never had to replace a windshield fortunately so I don't know how much they normally cost.

[–] TheMightyCanuck@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago (2 children)

'mostly reasonable' they integrate into the roof glass and their shape makes them 10x the price of a new windshield

I can get a replacement for a 2010 Ford for about 200$

Oh noo, it caused mass terror throughout the country ... when people saw mildly vandalised pre-shitty cars, PTSD for life.

[–] Placebonickname@lemmy.world 35 points 2 days ago

Gotta be one of the biggest/fastest drops in a company’s stock value since Cutthroat Island opened in theaters.

[–] Wilco@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

How many police officers got killed when those cybertrucks got spraypainted?

[–] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

So what you're saying is: the only wqy to not be a terrorist is to threaten elected officials until I get my way?

I'm off to be an upstanding citizen.

[–] painfulasterisk1@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Can't be any elected official, the waiver only applies toward a specific group.

[–] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And you have to belong to a specific group.

Pantone of racism

Plutocracy: Destroy Capitol? Ok. Destroy Capital? Not on my watch!

[–] Signtist@lemm.ee 15 points 2 days ago

Remember, Trump doesn't say things that are true - or even things he thinks are true - he only says things that he thinks will benefit him to say. So yes, it benefits him to say Jan 6 wasn't domestic terrorism, and that vandalism of his boss' cars is domestic terrorism.

[–] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 days ago

ohh I see it now...

[–] ABetterTomorrow@lemm.ee 15 points 2 days ago

It’s always the opposite with these weirdos.

[–] starshipHighwayman69@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 days ago

This isn't even vandalism. Zero windshields were harmed by the paint.

[–] Coreidan@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Terrorism only applies to brown or poor people.

If you’re rich you get a free pass to do anything including genocide.

[–] milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

It's only rich people who can boycott Teslas (poor folk wouldn't afford them in the first place) so it must be pardonable to boycott! Problem solved!

[–] taxiiiii@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

They're clearly destabilizing the countries integrity by checks notes vandalizing cars! Property damage is obviously much worse than actual violence, so long as the property is expensive enough. /s
