No my cousin Dan saw someone disable a Tesla with Fentanyl last week, he said it was probably Hamas.

They're shooting bullets at the showrooms. Guns are now weapons of mass destruction.

toyplayer.bsky.social•7 days ago

They're throwing fentynal at the cars?

The GOP religion is a Humpty-Dumpty. Words mean only what they say the words mean, although that changes from moment to moment.

wwalkersd.bsky.social•8 days ago

There is, of course, precedent for a Republican administration lying about Weapons of Mass Destruction. But at least the prior time it was actually plausible.

franssu.bsky.social•8 days ago

Coming from an administration who prices absolutely everything between half a trillion and two trillion dollars, it's not surprising.

The Teslas have mass, and some of that mass is being destroyed?

guncelawits.bsky.social•8 days ago

Afaict only Democrats think words have meaning. Republicans think words have effect.

It's too bad there is no bookmark function on this stupid platform - this is a really good thought and I would have liked to save it without having to screenshot it.

I think it's just as likely that Pam doesn't know what those words mean.

jookymakeyoukooky.bsky.social•8 days ago

I’m so old I remember when it meant nuclear, chemical or biological weapons.

jfs.bsky.social•8 days ago

She’s right about the law, though. It is legally classified as a WMD, and the Feds will have an immense amount of power to prosecute. Don’t mess around with this.

dannod.bsky.social•8 days ago

Where is it legally classified as a WMD? "Chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear weapons capable of a high order of destruction "

jfs.bsky.social•8 days ago

18 USC § 2332a(c)(2)(A). It was passed as part of a larger crime bill (regrettably, by Democrats). That section in (A) references 18 USC § 921, which specifically lists explosives and incendiaries.

I think it's dumb, but nevertheless it's in the law and it's been used in court before.

dannod.bsky.social•8 days ago

Thank you - That is totally absurd, but that is the definition.

misterkojak.bsky.social•8 days ago

While Teslas deserve it, nukes seem like overkill. A heavy rain storm can take out most Cybertrucks after all.

justineisinger.bsky.social•8 days ago

Is she describing empty tubes?

brian456.bsky.social•8 days ago

Soon everything (except maybe AR-15s) will be classified as WMDs.

jdhattin.bsky.social•8 days ago

Bottle of vodka. Weapon of mass destruction.

mop-fautneddy.bsky.social•8 days ago

Did she say they were going after criminals now?

sergiol652.bsky.social•8 days ago

They haven't since W. Bush

kathryncramer.bsky.social•8 days ago

Obviously, they are giving Teslas fentanyl.

andyspags.bsky.social•8 days ago

This is an essential component of the maga program.

notinspring.bsky.social•8 days ago

she thinks when Democrats protest that is a "weapon of mass destruction". However when a MAGA shoots up a night club, a concert or a school, then that is someone who should be pardoned.

ogdavisxmachina.bsky.social•8 days ago

The 'People who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities' people want to make sure they don't run out of absurdities.

bawalker.bsky.social•8 days ago

😂🤪😂

scottgoeke.bsky.social•8 days ago

do we reach:

“Tesla protesters are vaxxed and therefore spewing spike proteins all over the dealership!”

“That means they are literally walking weapons of mass destruction!”

“Off to the Salvadoran slave labor gulags with them!”

?

scottgoeke.bsky.social•8 days ago

they’re probably too lazy for that unless they get down to RFK Jr on the list for the “make mouth noises for Elon” tour

iamapyriteking.bsky.social•8 days ago

The concept of "meaning" no longer has meaning, which is either a world-destroying epistemological nightmare or... uhh... isn't. Kinda hard to tell when nothing matters.
