Genuinely both, but the latter is the #1 reason. Seriously though, it's like every Tesla accident I hear about is FSD related. I get that people are dumb (in general), but it's not entirely their fault when Elon keeps/kept talking about how FSD is really "full" self driving.
Anyone who buys the fsd license at this point deserves the disappointment. It's been "a year or two away" for a decade now. At some point, ignorance isn't a good excuse. I think that point was before 2020. In 2025, you have to actively avoid or block out the information that musk is a grifting Nazi.
It's like the people that buy into the idea that ICE is only deporting criminals. You have to either be in deep denial, or a complete idiot.
I mean, that just kinda makes sense. Regular accidents aren't really newsworthy. Even if they are, it tends not to be worth mentioning what manufacturer the car is.
