You understand that if you left this sentence out of your comment it'd read as absolutely reasonable, right? With that addition it verges on inflammatory for no added purpose whatsoever to the message.
- cramer4next 9d agoI was not aware of that. Nothing inflammatory here. Its the general counter to sediment of here. If it was solar city it wouldn't even have 2 points. What makes this so different then any other product cancellation? One word, "Musk". Its a trigger word for a small majority of the population.
- NewJazz 9d agoWhat is a "small majority"? Freudian slip?
- cramer4next 9d agoYour reading too deep. A small majority is a group of individuals that attempt to speak for masses when in fact their statements or beliefs are non-reflective of the majority. Its like that experiment they do with a group of children where they tell 9 out of 10 children to say 2+2=5 and the 10th child just goes along with it by answer 5 too. Either because they want to fit in or they are just angry and want to belong. Forced conformency for being the odd person out when surrounded by the "small majority".
- NewJazz 8d agoYou're thinking of the phrase "vocal minority".
- cramer4next 8d agoFive years ago I'd agree with you, but in the current climate "minority" has negative connotations associated with it. E.g. a deminished value of opinion and lack of representation. Thus "small majority" has become more palatable and socially acceptable.
- piva00 3d agoThat's your attempt at a neologism, I had no idea what you meant until you tried explaining it and honestly it feels a bit unnecessary... Say what you mean.
- kcplate 9d ago> One word, "Musk". Its a trigger word for a small majority of the population Well…it is fashionable to hate all things Elon.
