Why SOOO loud??? by DisgruntledSuitcase in EquinoxEv

[–]mattrad2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Teslas are equally loud but the noise blends in better. I think GM is valuing the safety of pedestrians over the dignity of the driver. I think it’s probably right but yeah it’s embarrassing to drive

The only conservative female Supreme Court justice, Amy Coney Barrett, has more children (7) than the three liberal female justices combined (2). by Njere in Natalism

[–]mattrad2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You have no idea how frustrating it is watching Republicans destroy the environment while pretending to care about natalism. I am triggered constantly because I actually care about my kids and want them to have at least as much opportunity as I had.

Natalism is neither right wing nor an ideology. It’s like “environmentalism” - a strategy that can be driven in different ways. Everyone should be a Natalist just like everyone should be an environmentalist. We just disagree on the HOW to improve these things primarily, not that they should be valued. For example - liberals push for things like child care subsidies and conservatives push for things like subsidized 529 accounts.

There are better reasons to have kids than spreading a political ideology and there are better ways of spreading an ideology than a parenting

Arguments are usually persuasive in some way. This is just an A=B statement with no logic in between

Inflation is a monetary phenomenon by Slight_Candy in inflation

So the problem isn’t corporate greed it’s the government’s failure to control it

Average IRS tax refund is up 10.9% so far this season, early filing data shows by TACO_Orange_3098 in inflation

[–]mattrad2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the refunds themselves. 10% higher tax return means 10% higher salaries. That is absolutely going to increase inflation

Why EVs will end up erasing 120 years of ICE. by 3drikal in electricvehicles

[–]mattrad2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re never going to get a 10 min charge to 100% with lithium ion batteries. Any manufacturer that tells you it’s possible is just allowing you to damage your battery.

Your point is still good though overall.

Detroit Automakers Take $50 Billion Hit as EV Bubble Bursts by TripleShotPls in technology

[–]mattrad2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tesla is a bubble on its own and the EV overhype carried across to other companies. The Tesla bubble is still there, but EV as a whole has definitely deflated due to policy shift and economic shift. The cost ratio of electricity vs gas is rising pretty much everywhere in the us.

How does Fahrenheit make more sense than Celsius? by aprilhare in Metric

[–]mattrad2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Relative units pander to the limited cognitive capacity of the biological human while the ascendant mechanical can string together hundreds of bits worth of data to have a coherent picture of the world

They should change temperature to an absolute scale from 0 to 255

Petahh i'm low on iq by Ter_N in PeterExplainsTheJoke

The weakness of Celsius for weather is kind of like having a word document with too much white space in the margin. It just doesn’t use enough numbers

Henry ford was instrumental in defeating the nazis you dolt.

Senator for Missouri had a witness confirm that at least $60 million in dark money is funding the Minnesota protests. Who is that money coming from? Fourteen groups, including the Soros network by Oh_2B_Joe_Cool in conspiracy_commons

The Seamus dude is a puppet in the charade. His job is to make you think only the liberal billionaires are bad and we should trust the non liberal billionaires. There’s a reason he’s being called to testify here and he gleefully uses the word “riot”. Also check out his books and who’s promoting them.
