don't think so but I only met these people like 2 months ago and talk to them like once a week or less in a group setting so I'm not exactly getting to know them well

I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt and say he probably was being somewhat reckless and might not be telling the truth about all the details, but none of the provided evidence is definitive at all to support your conclusion, and the rash of similar stories and prior recalls definitely make the guy's story much more plausible than it would be in a Camry.

there's overlap

Although yeah, real hicks aren't into the electric car thing, there are plenty of evangelicals and catholic (and probably any religion or none but going on personal experience here) electrical engineers (or similarly white collar who cosplay as hunters on the weekends and are more rabid than the average hick in a lot of ways. and they like tesla

What do you mean by "for threads"? The front page (list of posts)? or a post's page (list of comments)? or a specific linked comment thread?

What browser? Have you tried clearing cache/site data?

drawing from my own experience in an american city where crime has been mostly on the decline, this is absolutely plausible:

Last March, a representative of the public prosecutor’s office said there was no rise in criminality, but that the gradual widening of internet access for Cubans increases “the visibility” of the kind of crime that previously stayed in the shadows, and that online platforms are “spaces that also distort things that have happened.”

There may be an increase in petty crime, idk, I know the economic situation is not great rn, but to say that crime is getting out of control based on increasing social media reports (in a country which until recently had low levels of internet access), is not a reliable measure, and the "independent journalists" could be about as reliable as the self styled journalist that runs my local facebook crime watch page and just sits on the police scanner and sensationalizes every little thing that comes across it. Or they could be reputable but I'm not super inclined to give capitalist media criticizing a socialist country the benefit of the doubt
