As opposed to all the other counter-points you've taken on board over the years. :lol:

Don't be ridiculous. I'm not wearing any pants.
Just like Robert Mugabe.

Exactly like that, in I'm not wearing any clothes and he put his name and image on a fashion range.

Indeed. It’s taking effort to understand the counter argument here, I think they’ve successfully demonstrated the mentality of “I can’t see it (or any other point of view), therefore it must be wrong”.

Seen and read; pre empting how that thread will continue, it'll be something along the lines of "it's just the company name that's the same, not the engineers. German engineers > American engineers". Also, it contains nothing of the "Indeed." reply you'd posted here by mistake.

If it gets to the point of arguing that the German engineers vs American engineers of a major international company designing the same system but ‘differently’ just because they’re in two different countries, and therefore that’s the basis of one being better than the other then I really do give up.

Don't rope me in with that, and don't confuse the threads as you have with your "Indeed." reply above. Slight aside (and I cba Googling), I wonder if Karmann have made roofs for longer than Webasto.

That wasn’t confused, it was deliberate. Karmann was bought out in 2010 so I think despite that they were the longest.

Back to Elon; for a while many people were watching his Muskellites, a missed opportunity to spell something out with them.

Quite likely but - afaik - they weren't being used for that (merely world domination) so it didn't matter.

Same!

So we've gone from redpill dogwhistling and doubts as to whether he meant it, to calling for the liberation of the UK from it's tyrannical government, and in those seven years this is considered pretty normal for Musk.
