A few days ago, woke harpy Alyssa Milano declared, in a paroxysm of virtue-signaling, that she had traded in her Tesla for a Volkswagen EV to protest Musk's takeover of Twitter and the ensuing re-blossoming of free speech there. She immediately got shit for choosing a car made by a company that had been founded by Nazis, but Milano, ever determined, found and retweeted one sympathetic Twit who backed her up by saying that Volkswagen had rejected its Nazi past, so there was no problem getting a Volkswagen today. The response from the right was fairly predictable: "So, it OK to forgive Volkswagen, which has transcended its past, but not OK to let America off the hook for having transcended its past?" I don't know that this response is really a logical reply to the Twit's sentiments (feels a bit like moving the goalposts), but the right is correct to point out that this new argument from the left is in contrast to previous arguments from the left.
The above video also points out that Milano used to be a big-time Tesla/Musk fangirl.
