    Oh please, like people ever read the article. They read the headline and just make up the rest. Nobody ever reads the article or looks up shit for themselves anymore. I’ve just had to correct someone about the cybertrucks wheels. Hate the vehicle all you want, I do for my own reasons, but don’t just make shit up. And it’s not just this shit, it happens in all sorts of fields. And the worst thing is you usually get a reply of “okay, but whataboutthis” and you just get more false shit. It’s as if people think that their feelings/assumptions are somehow more valid than actual facts…
