They are the very definition of the blind woke, who preach equality but are completely deluded to the fact that they are quite possibly the most discriminatory of all.

Just reading the forums for 5 minutes feels like my IQ is dropping, it's such low bandwidth intellect discussion. Look at JonMorris in the Twitter thread, questioning RustyBins claim that Tesla went crazy with growth and had a little reset.
