If there was a burning car and I had to open your Tesla's door from the outside to save you, you're dead because I wouldn't be able to figure out how to use the handle, regardless of whether the thing was still powered or not.

Try breaking a window man, do your due diligence and save a life. Don’t just give up at the slight obstacle.

Not risking my life EXTRA for someone still choosing to drive a Tesla after all of this, I'll keep on keepin' on and leave that to the professionals

Not saving a life because of their choice of vehicle… that’s really sad.

Imagine seeing a car on fire and actually saying to yourself “ hell nah, screw that guy, he chose to drive a Tesla, he deserve to burn alive”.

Great way of thinking man. I hope I don’t live anywhere near you.

Strawman: destroyed

Try:

Fuck helping that guy, I'm not figuring out how his stupid door works and potentially getting hurt myself because he chose to drive a stupidly designed vehicle

Notice how in yours it's some sort of bigotry towards the car, while I specifically pointed out that Tesla's are objectively less safe to interact with and that was the reason, with 0 sympathy being offered because they chose to drive a badly designed car

you could learn how to open a Tesla door so that if you ever come across a Tesla that’s on fire, you could save a life. There are plenty of youtube videos, less than 10 seconds of your time.

You could make a difference in someone’s life.

Lol, fuck learning how to open someone else's car for an extremely niche situation, they can burn, I do not care about their poor choices
