This car is less efficient than model 3

But it's also more than half it's price. France is full of small city vehicles, this will blend just well. Especially with the fact how car-patriotic French are

And it is being compared to a Tesla, that wildly considered fascist-adjacent nowadays.

A lot less likely to get keyed with an electric 2CV.

Yeah, by mentally sick people.

And counties built on colonialism has no right to virtue signal.

We just don't like giving money to fascists since we have had to fight many of them at great cost in the past.

Categorising people who think Elon Musk is fascist-adjacent as mentally sick should be below the quality standards of a comment on HN. Also, even if he either is or is not that, labelling anti-support of said person/movement/business as "virtue signalling" is also lazy and assuming bad faith. It's legitimate "activism" to not support a business if they engage in morally dubious activity (I'm not advocating that Tesla or Elon Musk are or are not engaging in that, but either way, it's not just virtue signalling).

Weren’t they referring to keying?

I guess maybe so

Referred to keying but you got defensive on something else. This is called hitting the nerves :)

Also, you want to do legit activism? Go give away those looted wealth and wealth generated from that, give them back. But instead controlling them using currency :))

As you can see below, I instantly agreed I might have responded wrong/misinterpreted. So no it’s not called hitting the nerves

That's a different story. I was replying to the claim that small = efficient.
