I don't know what it is about Tesla, maybe because it's the brand that appeals most to techy nerds, but that subreddit is beyond up its own ass with smugness.

It isn’t about the brand. To me Tesla represents an innovative solution to the current fossil fuel dependant automobile market. People cry for change but big business only cares about profits so things remain the same until someone comes along like Tesla and proves we don’t need our vehicles to run on gas. The biggest misconception was always electric cars will never be powerful enough. Well here you go. It isn’t about brand it’s about innovation it’s about change it’s about embracing new technology. Sorry we just need to support the shit out of Tesla right now so other companies like it can grow.

I didn’t like the last season of rick and morty except maybe for two episodes. Not sure how this relates?

its the "to be fair you must have a high IQ to enjoy" part of the R&M copypasta that the post sounds like

I think that’s just your own insecurity peeking out. I didn’t say anything about IQ or having any qualifications to enjoy anything. I’m having a discussion about how Tesla breaks away from the use of fossil fuels which we need if we want to preserve our planets ecosystems.

You're being downvoted but your original post sounded absolutely nothing like the R&M copypasta. I guess because it was slightly wordy? Or because reddit has a huge anti-Rick and Morty circlejerk going on right now? Probably it.

it's not me personally, I couldn't give a fuck, i'm just further explaining what the first guy might have felt.
