watch everyone but leftists, that lemmy was created for, avoid this thread

due to the bonkers high tariffs.

i hope they start building them in mexico.

and they’re winning. the bonkers high tariffs on brand new $10k EV’S have guaranteed that americans and western europeans will never get affordable EV’s and only the rich will have them.

living in austin for 5 years taught that even the bluest texans are ardently pro-establishment.

that doesn’t mean that all of them are climate deniers; but like their red brethren, they’ll fall in line and vote for a climate change denier if it means their guy gets to win.

like most of the country, they hate their choices but will fight you tooth and nail if you try to change anything for the better; don’t bother with benefit of the doubt when it comes to texans.

they’re selling out so fast that australia hasn’t gotten many yet.

interestingly australia might be the only western country to get them since they have a free trade agreement with china while the united states and europe are putting extremely hefty tariffs on them to protect their own respective automotive industries.

that’s why it makes more sense to have them be naked to begin with ;)

There doesn’t even need to be penetration involved and it can still be a good time.

that’s true; but the pic implies a “gangbang” which is usually penetrative.

i forgot strapons existed and i think that would enable a greater variety of double/triple/whatever penetration videos than gay porn currently does.

based on the strapon usage i’ve seen: i suspect people who use strapons derive more psychological pleasure than physical pleasure and if that would have an impact on the quality of the porn.

yeah, but then you’d have to live in texas. lol

i tried it for 5 years and no thank you!

You’re not wrong, but in fairness the headline says EVs are becoming affordable, not that they are affordable.

he’s right; brand new ev’s go for about $10k outside the unites states; they’re already affordable but big tariffs are being employed to discourage buying them.

curiously, even the 100% american tariff still makes these ev’s more affordable than anything in that article and i’m wondering what’s going to happen once they start building them in mexico (ie nafta).

Oh, so you mean not yet, but maybe affordable soon.

For fuck’s sake…

i had the same feeling while knowing that people outside the united states can get brand new ev’s for $10k today.

you can buy a brand new one for $10k outside the united states

Nope, that’s not affordable.

i had the same thought and i’m also thinking that i’m going to keep my 15 year old car until it dies in the hopes that i can get those brand new $10k ev’s that people outside the united states can get right now.

When the price is competitive with ICE vehicles, I think we’ll see rapid adoption.

they already cost $10k outside the united states so the price is already beyond competitive; the real barrier to adoption will be once/if the united states removes the 100% tariff they’ve placed on chinese ev’s.

yes please! lol

but i wonder how this would work with men and women; do they take turns with the man? if so how is it different than 1-on-1 porn?

i had this cuban moreno friend who was overly proud of his spanish heritage and would make fun of my chicano spanish sometimes. each time he did it in public, i would shut him up by asking someone in the group which one of us was latino which one was american; my garden variety mexican looks always got picked as latino and his afrocubano ass got picked as american. it was especially delicious if the person i asked knew that he could speak spanish.

i thoroughly enjoyed using american racism to put him in his place and it’s probably the only time in my life where that racism worked to my advantage. lol

best case scenario is that they’re his definition of progressives which means that they would also think that the gaza genocide is acceptable

you’re too late; they already dismissing it by saying that the title is misleading

also the speed by which those same comments are coming in are very suspicious and now i’m wondering if this hasn’t shown up in the fediverse by an organized concerted effort

the illegal part is intentionally hidden in the details
