This is a very republican method of argument.

Edit: now tell them to go “do your own research”

First time seeing it for me. Maybe we don’t need to be the post police.

The condition, known as alpha-gal syndrome

Knee-jerk reaction: oh come on, a condition where you can’t eat red meat is called alpha gal syndrome. Fucking toxic masculinity at its finest.

After two minutes of research, from a different site:

Alpha-gal is a molecule (galactose-α-1,3-galactose) that is naturally produced in the bodies of most mammals but not in people. It is also found in the saliva (spit) of some ticks.

Oh. Well. I retract my previous indignation, but maintain that it is a very funny coincidence.

Oh, wait! I know this one!!

No, it isn’t.

That’s exactly why Robert is hesitating. He doesn’t want to make a statement. He just wants an electric, durable, practical truck.

Ok, so this is just a marketing fluff article right? Because the cyber truck is very well documented to only be one of the three things listed there.

I still do not understand how that event didn’t turn the entire world on Musk forever.

I already didn’t like Musk because of the whole “you can’t use safety yellow paint or backup alarms on forklifts in my factories because I don’t like them,” but calling a hero a pedophile because his ego wasn’t the most important thing in the situation was just so outlandishly childish and evil.

I don’t have any mainstream media accounts and I’m pretty happy with that choice.

Although honestly I feel like Lemmy is feeling a lot like second Reddit recently and I’m pretty sad about this. See: dozens and dozens of low effort moth memes on feed now.
