They never used GrapheneOS and were in our rooms primarily to stir up trouble.</p><p>Many open source projects have them banned across Matrix for all kinds of highly inappropriate behavior and abuse.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> Musk has been like this since at least 2017, when he started going full GamerGate. That said, Teslas are pretty expensive luxury cars... I might feel differently if they weren't in and of themselves symbols of pretty significant privilege.</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://wandering.shop/@xgranade" class="u-url mention">@<span>xgranade</span></a></span> I would definitely judge anyone who bought one new, but there's plenty of people who were driving one since before Musk was well known and just need to get around</p><p>existing in a car-driven society requires driving a car and i don't think everyone has the financial freedom to consume in the morally correct way</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> I don't know that I agree, but I take the point. At the very least, though, I think Teslas cross pretty far past the line at this point.</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://wandering.shop/@xgranade" class="u-url mention">@<span>xgranade</span></a></span> i think this is well into "moral OCD" territory rather than any serious political analysis</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> I mean, yes? To varying degrees, but we've been on a pretty direct road to fascism for decades at least, and a lot of those steps have been really ordinary things people went along with.</p>
