These blanket judgements and accusations at a good half of the population of the United States is why we’re in the social mess we’re in now. You’re contributing to the problem, the divisive rhetoric that isn’t useful for anyone on any side if we wish to come to common ground across the aisle. If either side wishes to make impactful change.

Already the world is moving away from the US dollar hegemony, a move that will impact our children, and children’s children if we as a country don’t participate in these evolving times. There’s numerous other examples of the world making decades-long plans that the US is not positioning ourselves appropriately for. We’re distracted by such tribalism on both sides.

The United States won’t be taken over by an outside power, no, we’re doing well enough eating ourselves from the inside.

Casting blame where it is due does not seem like the problem, as much as people protest how harmful it is.

The post you’re replying to is accusing Elon of acting a certain way, not half of the USA.

It suggests the behaviour is motivated by the desire to trick a bunch of unsophisticated rubes into doing something they are too stupid to realize is a good idea for ideological reasons. Seems pretty insulting to me.

Agreed... But is it implausible?

Aren't the people who roll coal and hate green energy a bunch of unsophisticated rubes?

No more unsophisticated than the rubes that spend 20 minutes washing their zip lock bags "to do their part for the environment" and then hop on an airplane an generate more emissions than throwing out a lifetime's worth of plastic bags in a couple of hours.

You're missing the fact that the people who roll coal also often hop on airplanes.
