    I thought that was just being in Texas? You’re fucking the planet AND society at the same time!? Hell, that’s just Tuesday down there.

      He’s just taking advantage of laws passed by the state legislature. Texas cities used to have some influence over their unincorporated surrounding areas, but someone in the lege got pissed off about it.

      Of course, Tesla could still be a good neighbor, but everyone please think about the shareholders! 🙄

    Taking advantage of weak environmental laws - what a good look for an EV company.

    A large business avoided environmental regulations in a Republican state.

    In other news, water makes things wet.

    They would love to do this everywhere. In Germany, this didn’t really work. They were facing a shutdown of their factories access to the sewer system. Lets see if they can clean up their shit.

    I mean pretty par for course for all of these Republican run states that always goes on about “Local government knows best for its citizens” and then immediately goes “No, not that way!” when they aren’t adhering to their narrow conservative viewpoints.
