dinksetter.bsky.social @dinksetter.bsky.social · 21/11/2025Whenever someone refers to "western civilization" in contexts such as these, I find it helpful to use the decoded version of that term: "white power". It makes it much more clear who they're talking to and what they really mean. 061 0

dinksetter.bsky.social @dinksetter.bsky.social · 16/06/2025Last year, I bought an EV, installed solar, and did a service upgrade/installed an EVSE (Grizzl-E Classic FTW). All of those choices have consequences, and all of them could be questioned. The best we can do is to make as informed a choice as possible. I rely on you for some of that. 010 0
dinksetter.bsky.social @dinksetter.bsky.social · 16/06/2025I think you're seeing the natural tendency of people to justify their own decisions, even if they're questionable. Someone may have chosen to get a new ICE car, or done an unnecessary service upgrade, or passed on rooftop solar. The right decision for me may not be the right decision for all. 110 0
