My experiences in such cases have been that the small right-wing outlets are always wrong or lying in such instances.
So basically, I agree with the people being interviewed in the video: I see zero reason to believe the interviewer when he asserts the pictures are from Greta's car and when he gives me no reason to think that he has any way of knowing which car Greta's was, and every reason to think he made it up. He gives zero evidence, other than his word, and I tend to assume he's vastly more likely in general to be lying than telling the truth."I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump
"Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic socialism" - George Orwell
"[Capitalism] as it exists today is, in my opinion, the real source of evils. I am convinced there is only one way to eliminate these grave evils, namely through the establishment of a socialist economy" - Albert Einstein

Originally posted by seanD View PostHe definitely should have offered more evidence. If it is true, it's pretty funny, though not the least bit surprising. And infowars is a pretty low bar to compare to smaller mainstream conservative sites.
Yeah. That's it, ok. They took video of the wrong car.

JimMy brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1
If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26
This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

I don't know. She was here in October and went on to Vancouver following, so it wasn't really winter here yet. I don't know anyone who has a Tesla to even ask how they manage.
