BMW is a luxury Car, you still have to pay for safety extra. That's the difference. One car brand make it mandatory, other ask you extra dollars for every safety camera to install.

Absolutely false. Some BMW are luxury cars. Some BMW are business/premium trims, and some are fleet rental trims.

BMW is hated for a reason, and most car manufacturers (not just Tesla) would compare favorably to it.
Pretty much every major manufacturer makes safety features standard on the base models across their lineup today.

A third the price but still pouring disgusting fumes into our neighborhoods

The disgusting fumes are almost exclusively from diesel trucks and very old cars. Manufacturing affordable (no, the Model 3 is not affordable) new cars helps take old cars off the streets and make our neighborhoods cleaner.

Those are just more disgusting fumes, I prefer no fumes entering the cabin of my car and into my lungs from the car in front of me

Funny, most of the pollution of modern cars comes from tires and brakes. Tesla may remove particulates from brakes, but any mild hybrid+ does.

You are never going to convince me that a car emitting gray or black smoke out the back is somehow not any worse than one that has no emissions at all.

lol who cares about convincing you personally, besides, that's not even the point I was making.
Today, other car manufacturers are standardizing safety features across their model lineups while manufacturing cars that are a third the price of the cheapest Tesla.
