Why not? You don't get to impose your beliefs on your neighbour. This silliness of taking things out of context and then attacking them has got to stop. Hindus were using the symbol long before the existence of the German state. Nazis

I wonder which places still use any metal at all. I haven't seen those in decades. It's all plastic here.

Thanks for that. The jargon wasn't transparent at all. Makes perfect sense once it's pointed out though.

You want Tesla to sell skateboards? I don't get it.

Eh, the company took their money and ghosted them. This is what Small Claims Tribunals are for. No lawyers needed. OP should easily be able to claw back their money (plus the cost to hire an Irish bailiff to serve papers on the director).

LOL, I got carried away there. How many times a year do you do a 24hr road trip, or even an 8hr non-stop road trip?

Why? This car covers 99.99% of your current car usage. If you want that extra .01% (driving all day without stopping), you can rent a polluting vehicle in 5 mins on your phone.

> The US ranks 27th in terms of "least corrupt" Oh yes, that's why I consider them the worst. They're so corrupt they legalised it and have conned organisations like Transparency International into believing that in t

It's legal in your country to pay huge sums of money to your politicians in order to buy influence. Ergo the laws of the country and the actions of the government are for sale to the highest bidder. In most other countries, this would

He's a citizen of the most corrupt country in the world and the (only?) one that legalised that corruption and gave it a different name. He was the biggest donor to the governing party. He'll be fine.
