They also want to use their factories for an Israeli arms maker. Fuck VW.

Welp, here goes any chance for my next car to be a VW.
VW also plans to use their manufacturing capabilities for an Israeli arms maker.

Staying close to their Nazi roots.
"Volkswagen keeps the memory alive: The company actively and responsibly communicates its founding history and sees itself in the responsibility to continue to remember the fate of the forced laborers, to commemorate the victims and to stand up for respect, tolerance and diversity."

It's called 'keeping the memory alive' when you pivot to supporting war crimes once again.
Really showing their Reich roots on this one.
Funny how chinese (car) maufacturers start appearing as "the good ones", because I can't see them starting to bend over backwards to make Google happy by locking devices out that don't carry the appropriate signature.
And nothing of value was lost (that is, VW).
Thanka for clearly being dicks, VW. One more thing on top of your cars being as bad as American cars.
You downvoted taxing the rich. Lmfao.

Do you just go around checking people's voting history at random?
I was wondering who the one downvoter on that was.
And you remembered the username and brought it up in an entirely different thread? That's weird. You didn't even stop to wonder why they might have downvoted it? Maybe they're in favor of taxing the rich, and have disagreements with that particular strategy. Maybe they have no problem with that strategy and the downvote was an accident. Maybe they are against taxing the rich.
Don't bring it up in another thread dude that's weird as hell and adds nothing to the conversation
Was the top of their comments list. Chose the top.
So you checked who downvoted it, and followed them to an unrelated thread to whine about it?
That. Is. Weird. As. Hell. Don't do that. It's borderline harassment
It’s two buttons. It’s not weird. I’ll do what I want lol. Everything you do on Lemmy is public record. You know that right? Yikes.
Damn. I haven't felt this much pity for someone in a long time. I hope your life improves.
Because I pushed a button in my Lemmy client that shows vote results because I was curious who would downvote taxing the rich?
That says a lot about you.
That you have so little going on that's actually worthwhile that you have to resort to arguing with strangers on the internet all day, every day. Nothing positive to add, no positives seen in the world, just spite and rage. I hope you get better, friend, because that's a miserable way to live.
You sound just like me. You took the time to essentially do what I did.
Lmfao, you feel sorry for yourself.
I needed that laugh. Thanks bud.
