Well too fucking bad for the auto industry? Just because it’s an American industry doesn’t mean we should give a fuck about it. If they want our loyalty, make fucking better cars.

    Cars has been so poorly made dor 1 or 2 decades now, that I respect most people who drives late 90's to early 00's cars.

    Electric cars are a joke in terms of quality. How they don't have self-dignity at all?

    Oh the thing is we should totally care!

    Not for the "losses of expected revenue" of car industry shareholders, I don't care about that.
    But for years already I hate that china, you know, the most hardcore surveillance state, is pumping Europe with their computerized automatic surveillance machines!
    At least they are not operating as automatized killing machines. Yet.

    And before anyone says. I feel the same about other, noon-chinese cars too that are filled with all kinds of external sensors. I hate Teslas with a passion, but in my opinion chinese cars are even worse, just as chinese, state sponsored apps on our phones.
