This subthread is about the people who system16 criticized for being happy with purchasing FSD. The Justice Department is not acting on behalf of that group of satisfied customers.

Your claim seems to be that people get to decide what they spend their money on, and it's arrogant to think you know better than them. Which is a fine claim, to a point, but the Justice Dept seems willing to at least investigate whether they should step in and declare that what's being sold here is essentially fraud. You might call that arrogant, but it doesn't really matter, it's still what's happening.

They are investigating, so it is not known whether or not they disagree yet. And even if they did, your argument would still be nothing but an appeal to authority.

My argument is more about power: you're free to claim that it's arrogant to think you know better than the people spending the money, and if they're happy, then it's none of your business. But the government doesn't agree, so good luck with that.
