- Tomte 10y agoYou just love to spread this misinformation, do you? Strangely it also excludes the BMW i8 and the Porsche Cayenne in their hybrid variants. Obviously the German government is doing all it can to thwart those evil German carmakers. Oh, and Tesla, right.
- denzil_correa 10y agoFalse Dilemma Fallacy. I said Tesla's models are excluded. I never said BMW and Porsche hybrid (that's almost clutching straws - pun intended) aren't excluded.
- Tomte 10y agoYou claimed protectionism, i.e. excluding foreign cars in order to boost sales of domestic cars. Turns out German cars are excluded as well. Not Germany's fault that Tesla's affordable car is so late. But you still play the language-lawyering thing to try and hide your ulterior motives and intentions.
- denzil_correa 10y agoReading Comprehension? > You claimed protectionism, i.e. excluding foreign cars in order to boost sales of domestic cars. I said IF the number is arbitrary, it could be deliberate. > Turns out German cars are excluded as well I never said they weren't. In fact, what percentage of German cars are excluded? If they're just a few it could still be a protectionist move. > But you still play the language-lawyering thing to try and hide your ulterior motives and intentions. Your issue of interpretation of English isn't me having ulterior motives and intentions.
- Tomte 10y agoLiar: "One of the reasonable explanations, prima facie, that it is to exclude Tesla specifically."
- denzil_correa 10y ago"One of the" not the ONLY. Also, "prima facie" - not definite. Reading comprehension failure.
- Tomte 10y agoYou're a failure as a human being.
- dang 10y agoThis is unacceptable on HN. We ban people who attack others like this, so please don't do it again.
- dang 10y agoTomte's personal attacks were worse than yours but you also broke the HN guidelines and ought not to have continued this ridiculous spat. If you can't comment civilly and substantively, regardless of how provocative or wrong someone else may be, please don't post until you can.
