Another day and another: Stalin shouldnt have stopped at berlin.

Unironically, Stalin's restraint and caution in international politics was probably his worst trait. I can understand the rationale but hindsight is 20/20

The headline VW to shift from cars to missile defence in deal with Israel’s Iron Dome maker strongly implies that they are going make less cars as a result of their military business, but the article actually says this "shift" is at one of their car factories which they had planned to shut down next year.

The article also neglects to mention some relevant information about the VW Group such as its origins and who owns them today (although they are a publicly traded company, the Qatari sovereign wealth fund, the German state of Lower Saxony, and the Porsche family respectively own 10.4%, 11.8%, and 31.9% of the shares, and the Porsche family holds 53.3% the voting shares).

I wasn't ever going to buy from VW, but now I definitely won't and will campaign against it. Fuck 'em.

[-] Mangoholic@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 month ago

Another 10+ car companies i cannot buy an ev from. Then again they mostly suck and are to expensive compared to the competition.

Deindustrialised by your ally? Shift to the only industry that ~~pays for itself~~ is paid by your nazi govt to kill people for other nazi govt
