A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.

A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.

RULES:

1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.

2 No Trolling

3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.

4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.

5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.

6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' Tankie, etc.

I have a feeling he designed the cyber truck and that's why it sucks so hard

Nope, he didn't do that either

Yeah iirc, he boasted a bit about that and there's alot of engineers that responded to various comments about design oversights saying most of it was musks design, it was designed how he wanted it the way he wanted it, agianst the advice of engineers. They saw some these problems miles away but that car specifically was musks baby, his personal magnum opus, his personal design.

Probably a reason them being vandalized hirts him even more, not only is he an arrogant petulant child, that really is "his" creation. Treats it more like his kid then any of his children which "died" to wokeness.

On an video done by common sense skeptic, he mentions that Teslas business plan was layed out by the original founders up until the launch of cybertruck. Indicating that Musks only major contribution was indeed the Cybertruck. He also has a couple of patents, one for the shape of the charger socket and the other one I can't recall.
