@SenTomCotton I wouldn’t trust someone who went to Singapore and still thinks Singaporeans are China citizens, Senator

Let me be clear: China is still communist, Xi Jinping is still marxist, and it’s still the Evil Empire.   breitbart.com/asia/2026/03/2…

@davec260 @JeremiahRabitor @avidseries Some live in apartments where charging EVs are banned, even granny chargers

@JeremiahRabitor @avidseries Prior to buying one I thought the same. Reality is you plug it into a standard 20 Amp outlet and it charges enough overnight for daily driving.

What are the arguments against buying an electric car?

@avidseries No home charging (apartment) and little to no local charging infrastructure

@spotted_model Chinese Didi (Uber) driver says he lost all the hair on his legs from driving an EV everyday for a year and a bit, even offered to show me it. 🤣

Remember when education was a thing?

@scaling_shields Enterprise wanted £8,000 for a scratched roof (we didn’t). Rentalcover said “pay them and claim from us”. Didn’t want to risk that. Asked Enterprise to write the details so our lawyers can handle it, they replied “Ah it’s fine we’ll waive it”. We pay for CDW now, less stress

my mate works at a car rental company and showed me the internal pricing screen after a few pints context: this is the same car on the same day in the same location showed 6 different prices depending on which website you book through the price you see first is ALWAYS the highest one heres how the scam works: you go to their website and book directly thats the most expensive way to rent a car because you came to THEM you already decided you want the car you already picked the dates you already chose the location they know youre not shopping around so they charge full price £67/day for a basic hatchback meanwhile the same car on the same day: on a comparison site: £44/day on a corporate portal: £38/day on an opaque site like hotwire: £28/day £28 vs £67 140% markup for not knowing which button to press he showed me why each price exists: direct website = "this person didnt shop around. charge full price" comparison site = "theyre comparing us to 5 others. show the mid price" opaque site = "they cant see our name until they pay. give them the lowest price because wed rather fill the car for £28 than let it sit empty at £67" then he showed me the charges they add AFTER you book collision damage waiver: £18/day "covers your £2,000 excess in case of damage" your credit card already covers this for free. most people dont know that. 70% of customers buy it at the counter because theyre scared thats £126 on a 7 day rental for something you already have airport premium fee: £12/day "premium location surcharge" a fee for parking the car where you need it its pure profit. costs them nothing extra young driver surcharge: £25/day i asked what the actual insurance cost is for under 25s "about £2 a day. we charge £25 because they dont know any better and theyre usually in a rush" £175 extra on a week rental for £14 of actual cost fuel policy: "we fill it you return it full" sounds fair until you read the fine print if you return it with anything less than full they charge £2.30 per litre petrol is £1.40 64% markup on fuel he said the best one is the counter upsell "you sure you dont want the premium cover? what if something happens on the motorway?" 60% of people say yes at the counter because theyre tired from travelling they just want the keys same decision fatigue the car dealer uses in the finance office tired people sign things the car rental price destruction method: 1. never book from their website directly. use kayak or google flights car rental tab to see the real market rate 2. check hotwire or priceline opaque deals. same car 40-60% less because they hide the company name 3. decline everything at the counter. cdw, premium cover, fuel packages, gps, child seats you didnt ask for. all of it 4. check your credit card benefits. most visa and mastercards include rental car insurance that makes their cdw completely redundant 5. refuel yourself. never prepay fuel. drive to the nearest station before returning. saves 60%+ on fuel charges 6. book the smallest car available. rental companies oversell small cars. show up and theyll upgrade you for free because they ran out of the one you booked he knew i was going to post this "go ahead. wont change anything. people will still panic at the counter and buy everything" the same car on the same day costs £28 or £67 depending on how much homework you did before you showed up stop paying the panic price start paying the informed one

@electricfelix Just left Barcelona and it’s still majority ICE by a wide margin. In a 30 minute drive I’d see about two BYDs, maybe and one or two more Teslas. I do see Model 3 taxis though

BYD registering more BEVs in Spain today than BMW & Mercedes combined (all the more interesting is that BMW and Mercedes are both in this month's top5!) 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸 #alwaysbecharging

@ev_australia @elonmusk @Tesla @TeslaAUNZ “Every time I drive an EV…..” Fixed it for you. I own a Tesla FWIW

Every time I drive a Tesla… I realise how outdated ICE cars feel. No noise. No gears. Just smooth power. Hard to go back once you’ve experienced it. @elonmusk @Tesla @TeslaAUNZ

@_Solegnave @formularacers_ @business You just know that having the largest car manufacturing country in the world in F1 can only be a good thing for the sport

@formularacers_ @business You just know that Chinese money comes with baggage that purists aren’t going to want,

🚨 | NEW: Chinese company BYD is reportedly considering their options for an F1 entry bid. [@business]

@um9527 @shaunrein Go read through Shaun’s timeline and you may then understand the sarcasm in his post

@shaunrein Not sure if you a Canadian or not. But your English is not good for basic writing, such as twittering on this platform. So mind your own business and stop intervening others.

China is evil for teaching Mandarin in schools to make sure all citizens of China can speak the official language so that they can get good jobs

@KinaCatGirl I see no lies

In English, nothing ends with the letter g

@DrKinKam @someguy244224 @NuryVittachi x.com/miketeetea/sta…

@someguy244224 @NuryVittachi Or even those who have been to Asia for a few weeks, or even a long time in their expat bubbles then think they know best. That western values are always right. They will not accept they are often wrong, especially on foreign affair matter.

I am thrilled to announce that I have new job! I used to be a China expert, then I became a Ukraine expert. But now I am expert on the Middle East matters, such as US bases in the Gulf, Iranian shipping lanes, etc. Signed, Everybody on X

@DLS_Keesha @HazelAppleyard I stay in hotels and keep the little soap bars and put them in something like this at home to wash my hands. Lathers up immediately

@HazelAppleyard Who the hell uses bar soap? Is that an American thing? Haven't seen bar soap in a decade or so in Europe, everyone uses liquid soap.

This is completely insane????

@caribeanpirate @Alden_Gonzalez @Buster_ESPN He’s not a PP Ambassador, that’s why

@Alden_Gonzalez @Buster_ESPN A guy making $60M a year buys a $4k Seiko? Dude could have bought everyone a $50k Patek and would have missed a dime.

Dodgers players had two gifts waiting for them at their lockers when they arrived at the ballpark today: * a bottle of Traveller whiskey from Dave Roberts * a $4,000 Seiko watch from Shohei Ohtani, complete with a note: “Let’s three-peat.”

@nalinrajput23 Mac bois are just like Tesla bois. Both are cultish I have a Tesla but not a Mac FWIW. iPhone user though

Window users can't argue on this

@ClubShayShay It runs both ways. One of the Chinese YouTube channels interviewed international students in Beijing(?) and a French girl said Chinese food in general “really really sucks”, nothing good at all, no redeeming features Mind blowing to a Chinese person like me but it is what it is.

"F*ck the Eiffel Tower... French food sucks. I think people really need to go to Asia. Go to Hong Kong! Everyone speaks English there. It's a beautiful city, some of the best food you'll ever have in the world.. Street food to like the best Michelin stars." - Jimmy O. Yang

@deanzulu @riomarojay We did

@riomarojay Have you ever watched Henry play? If you did, you'd understand why.

Okay, how did Henry acquire this reputation that basically makes him untouchable? Cos Salah has outdone him in every conceivable way

@Pretentious_A_ @frontierindica It is nutrition (wealth), unless you’re claiming all these countries are also giving their children HGH. There is also a clear correlation between per capita income and height

@frontierindica Lmao, retard. While nutrition can have some contribution to height the chinese growth in height is mainly due to artificial HGH shots given to their children. Chinese parents give their kids these shots to attain the desired height.

Chinese kids eat pork, chicken, fish and eggs at school every single day. India can't even keep one boiled egg a week on the mid-day meal menu because vegetarian lobbies keep getting states to ban it. Not to mention - India spends just Rs 6.78 per child per day on mid-day meals (and even most of that is stolen away) while China spends 5 Yuan (approximately 68 rupees) per child per day. Then we wonder why our 19-year-olds are 9 cm shorter. You can't build height on dal-roti and alu-poori.

@ismaeelmahmoudd @AnfieldSector That’s just too bad isn’t it? Supported the club for 40 years, the greats retire or leave, it is what it is

When Mohamed Salah leaves Liverpool FC, it won’t just be about goals and assists In Egypt and across the Arab world, cafés literally turn off the TV when Salah doesn’t play or being subbed off and some fans are already saying “no Salah, no Liverpool.” The "Player Fans" phenomenon is real when it’s about Mo Salah especially in Egypt, and now prominent figures like Ahmed Shobier publicly tweet "Goodbye to supporting Liverpool” Is this the end of Liverpool’s dominance in the Middle East & Africa? Full story on @winwinallsports 👇 winwin.com/%D8%A7%D9%84%D…

@HenryJackson87 “Not really sure how anyone can argue” does not work on Twitter. Mo could quadruple his output and some will still say he’s not better than XXX

Salah’s undisputedly on the right wing in an all-time Premier League XI - not really sure how anyone can argue otherwise. Ronaldo was great, but wasn’t at Man Utd long enough at his peak before Real Madrid. Beckham excellent, but far from Mo as a force. Nobody else stands out.

@malaymail Rage baiting. It works

How much should a glass of water cost in a restaurant?
