What’s wrong with cybertruck on fire? I thought it was nice and symbolic.
Maybe because it injured 7 people?
wait that actually happened?? I thought it was just a symbolic painting…
dude died in it.
yeah, it was real.
He got shot in the head too
Wait. I thought it just got caught fire because it’s a Tesla. What else happened?
he shot himself in the head immediately prior to the explosion, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_International_Hotel_Las_Vegas_Tesla_Cybertruck_explosion
Wow. Did he own it? Or rent it? Seems to be a lot to unpack here.
dang that sucks. RIP 🥲
I mean that’s obviously why he did it, but it was still a car bomb, not a malfunction.
so does that make all teslas car bombs now?
CT didn’t blow up, someone lit it on fire
Did they prove that yet? Seems like it would be on video and I haven’t seen any.
There are more sane comments here than on the “serious” news Lemmy.
I think this is the year where I force myself to stop paying attention to current events and completely disconnect
Do it, it’s amazing
Humans aren’t evolved for information overload like this. It rots our brain
- us telecoms hacked (again) by China? 😅
I knew this year was gonna suck
So, we moving Devil’s Night up?
New Years RESOLUTIONS, RESOLUTIONS, not revolutions…
On the second thought, continue.
Don’t put your trust in revolutions. They always come around again. That’s why they’re called revolutions. - Pratchett
I tell ya, what we need is the luggage…
I’ll put all my trust in the luggage.

I’m just happy they’re finally acknowledging that domestic terrorism is a thing, even if its just to avoid looking hypocritical because of Luigi Mangione
Finally? Didn’t Homeland Security or the FBI come out in the mid 2000s to warn that the most serious terror threat would be the domestic one?
yeah, because Timothy McVeigh.
And that they would be mostly right-wing folks, which has generally been true, in part because the bush administration deprioritized going after them.
There’s a scene in Justified and similar in some other shows in the years after 9/11. Marshalls are looking for help on some homegrown organized crime types and the FBI tell them “sorry boys if it ain’t about turbans or bombs in the sand we don’t have the money or time.”
We just sorta never stopped that after 20 years occupying and bombing the wrong country and now we have a goddamn nazi infestation again

No pattern here, move along.
“All this horrible shit happening has no pattern or coordination. We can ignore it” is a pretty bad take. Regardless of why these things happen they’re still tragic
no I think he was just being racist
He’s still right. You were just hoping it was all republican straight white males.
Nope, every demographic does crimes Nobody claimed otherwise lmao
First mass shooting in the US.
Unfortunately Montenegro beat us to the punch this year with a mass shooting killing 10 earlier yesterday.
But anything outside the US doesn’t count, maybe even doesn’t exist, according to a majority of US citizens.
It’s truly disturbing how common it is for 'Muricans to just forget and/or not care about anything outside the US. And even for things within the US, they forget timezones are a thing even though their own country has several.What the fuck, Montenegro, get your own thing. Something related to chain smoking probably.

ಠ╭╮ಠ
someone in this world bought a balloon and went driving to find a dead animal for that image._.
you think they went driving to find a dead animal?
cute…
Someone has to be driving to make roadkill. It just makes sense to drive up your own roadkill, if you’re looking for some.
And left their car parked in the photo.
Nope
