Well, at least if you buy a Tesla, you’re not supporting big oil companies like Exxon — oh wait…

“Oil major Exxon Mobil (XOM.N) is in talks with Tesla (TSLA.O), Ford Motor (F.N), Volkswagen (VOWG_p.DE) and other automakers to supply lithium, Bloomberg Law reported on Monday citing people familiar with the matter.”

    I’ll try that as my defense at my murder trial. “But your honor, at least I didn’t poison an entire town!”

    OP is listing all those things together because they’re all unconscionable actions that should never be done. It is in fact okay to condemn them all equally.

      You didn’t even read my comment.

      I wouldn’t defend either. I never said one was okay. Why would I use that defense when it’s not even a defense.

      But what I’m saying is if I have to buy one (which many people do), I’ll support the lesser of two evils. And one is far lesser.
