It fits except for the fact that it appears to be a viral infection, not a bacterial one like TB. It would also be kind of crazy for doctors to not just say that it's TB, if it was, because I assume they would've tested for it. Especially given these symptoms.

Yes, also the fact that they call it a virus and not a bacterium (TB is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis).

Tuberculosis is a bacterium, not a virus. Unless there's a joke I'm missing haha

Unfortunately I've heard it across the entire age spectrum of boomers... As well as their parents... Source: a friend has a large family that is mostly maga. Both sides 😬

I'm unsure of their youtube habits, though. I mostly see them sharing and interacting with nonsense on facebook.

Many of them think that Fox is "too far left" and now opt for OAN, NewsMax, and similar, which are so much worse.

Free speech when?

This could be an ICCU failure, where the high voltage battery doesn't properly charge the 12V. I have an EV model that is known to have this issue (luckily I haven't had it happen). It can be caused by either hardware or software faults. Still pathetic though lol

Edit: the cyber truck apparently doesn't have a 12V but rather a 48V system. I'm not sure if this same issue or a similar one is happening, or something else entirely.

Many EVs do have a 12V. I have a Hyundai Ioniq 6 and they are known to have ICCU failures which cause issues that look exactly like this.

Just leased an Ioniq 6 and been loving it. Depending on what you consider affordable, it checks your boxes! I leased mine during a major sale and with a trade in, though.

Plus I just looked at the price. I also have a Ninja - $90. Vitamix - $600. I'd have to be blending a whole lot to shell out that much, but I'm not, so I didn't. The Ninja works great and is the best blender I've used so far, so I don't see a reason to upgrade. Use what works for you!
