    While your point might seem fair, you simply cannot buy that car as ‘simply a car as any other’ if you have at least half an eyeball

      Sure, but having bad taste doesn’t make one a Nazi either.

        I feel like funding a Nazi is just as bad.

        I feel the same way with people who use Amazon. You can’t complain about what Bezos does with his money when you’re actively supplying him with it.

        You can’t complain about what muskrat does with his money if you’re buying his products.

        That makes you part of the problem.

          You’re judging people retroactively by one purchase they made, likely before the Nazi business. I’d say you’re part of the problem

            Except I’m not the one funding the Nazi?

            He was clearly a douchebag from the start. He didn’t even try to hide it. He didn’t even actually do anything but buy existing companies and pay smart people to make things with the wealth his parents accrued through basically slavery. He surrounded himself with enough yes men that he started to feel like a god which led to our current situation.

            He was always a piece of shit. It’s not retroactive.
