This website is satire and best viewed with a healthy dose of skepticism and a strong sense of humor.
what a disappointment
I'm sure they will get their fair share of people taking it seriously, even though it's satire

That thumb has a foreskin. AI generated images are still hilarious
And the hieroglyphs on the notes, and the funny face of whoever is on the note.

So long as only victims are insurance companies and Tesla, I am okay with it. To be fair, they kinda deserve it.
Tesla has its own insurance company so double whammy lmao
Well, no, it's all of us, because of how insurance works. Payouts go up, premiums go up. As long as the number of destroyed Teslas is a drop in the ocean we won't notice, but lots of companies love a good excuse to put prices up and this is just handing them a gold plated excuse on a silver platter.
Well, they'd put the premiums up on tesla owners as the cars now carry increased risk.

Just a reminder that insurance is a scam. You are compelled to pay for it under penalty of law in the case of car insurance, and the insurance companies do everything possible to maximize their profits, being for profit companies. What this means in general is that people pay more into insurance than they ever get out. If they didn't the insurance companies wouldn't make a profit. The money you pay isn't going into some huge fund that supports everyone who pays for it. If it doesn't go to paying out claims now it goes straight to the insurance executives, or investors, or to "lobbying" politicians to keep the racket going. The day you stop paying out you get fucking nothing. All that money is just gone, for the pleasure of maybe having your claim paid out if your insurance company can't weasel their way out of paying. Insurance is a scam, a bunch of penny pinching middlemen draining the world of human productivity and effort for their own benefit and nothing else. Any benefit a particular individual happens to get is a loss to be minimized to them.

Insurance companies are never the only victim. They just pass the pain forward.
I mean, the environment is also a victim in that case

You just know a dealership is going to get caught setting it's own Teslas on fire. That is going to be the free space on many 2025 Bingo cards.
It's actually just a convenient software update.
Download the update, start the engine, and run away
This is the only good use of a Tesla now, IMO. Get it fully insured, then go park it in a dark alley near a popular area. It'll get torched before too long. No fraud involved with setting your own car on fire....
Then use the money to buy something that's not made by a Nazi.
Forget to turn on sentry mode.
Straight outta the urban-cop playbook.

Nice idea, but Teslas are jampacked with cameras.
Teslas are jampacked with cameras.
Which will show a masked figure of weirdly indeterminate height (possible wearing hidden plateau shoes) setting fire to it in the middle of the night, how curious 🤔
(possible wearing hidden plateau shoes)
the cops will never single me out with my super discreet Tesla stompers

I wonder what fire does to the SD card on which the camera footage is stored?
(Its only uploaded to tesla servers when the car is connected to the internet)
Are you able to disconnect a Tesla from the Internet? You could forget your Wi-Fi network, but basically every car made after 2015 has an LTE modem
be a shame if it caught fire while you were camping in a remote location with no cell service
These gosh darn libs came out of the woods wearing masks and carrying molotovs and afterwards they gave me lentil beans and rice and a rainbow flag it was miserable

They're always connected via cell service, though.
That said, I'm pretty sure the antenna is stored in the right-side mirror, so if something were to happen, like that mirror becoming suddenly disconnected from the body of the car, it might disrupt that connection.

Man a shitty lining to this cloud is the kids that had to mine the lithium for the batteries into useless cars.
I think you're thinking of Cobalt? Lithium mainly is mined in big industrial facilities in Australia and Chile. Not like cobalt wich was in the news for being mined by hand, including with children.
However "new" Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries go without cobalt and other rare earth materials (not actually rare btw). Most electric cars use these batteries nowadays including many Teslas.

Buying a Hyundai of all choices after a tesla is doubling down on shitty car choices
The best car to get is one where the engineers actually thought of maintaining the thing over looks

If they rely on insurance to not fuck them over, I wish them good luck. Because boy, do insurances have the capacity and willingness to fuck people over

“Sir/madam, (sadam) your conviction slowly steeling and your hands steadying themselves before you finally threw the bottle was heartening, but why did you come directly out of your own house to do it? Claim rejected.”
Eventually one of you’s is gonna try it, but forget a detail or two.
Probably not the place, but Hyundai and Kia are both making some sharp looking cars right now.
Yeah the ioniq looks really nice, probs what I’d get if I was looking for something around the 60k range or whatever

I have owned only three brands of cars with a total of four different engines. And next to my Toyotas, my one Hyundai was incredibly reliable. Made it to 300k before I gave it away to my cousin. And the only time it ever left my in a jam was a Walmart parking lot when the starter burnt out. I walked across the street, bought a new one, and with the help of a YouTube video & $10 worth of tools from that very Walmart, shit was done. I highly recommend an old sonata to any one hard up, and in need for something reliable. Mine actually had heated seats! Easily the best $700 I've ever spent! I could rant about that car for ever.
I've heard insurance companies in the Un-united Dystopia of america have stopped insuring them

Don’t put Hyundai on a pedestal.

Sure, but that's kind of every car manufacturer right now. If you let that limit your choice, you won't be buying anything. Depending on where you live, maybe that's better.

Do NOT set your own car on fire. They will notice every marker pointing at you! Instead, incompetently park in a visible area that is poorly lit at night, perhaps a Trump sticker. Maybe an anti-trans or pro racism sticker! Really REALLY scummy stuff. Get a custom plate that says ''YBMC'' or something else horrid. Really egg them on. What you really want is a total stranger you have never interacted with. Police fail to identify 90% of crimes that don't have a personal motivation to known victim and perpitraitor.
In Brazil we call this jeitinho brasileiro (brazillian way*)... but this seems so american in my pov *means that you should take advantage in everything

That's actually the face your Insurance company make when their claim adjuster reviews the Tesla 'Sentry Mode' footage.

The irony here is that Hyundai models built 2019 - 2023 have an issue where they'll spontaneously combust.

Fuck hyundai, buy a toyota like someone with a modicum of taste and intelligence.
I don't think people that decided to buy an electric car will be interested in trading it in for a hybrid. Also, assuming you're in the US, because Hyundai are very good and popular in Europe. (Sorry, just noticed the username. Oh well..)
