I believe strongly that “positive rights” aren’t actually rights, insofar as anything that requires the government to give you something is A) something they can also take away, and B) something that requires the government to take from someone else, i.e. rob Peter to pay Paul. For this, among other reasons, I’ve been…

Ah yes, I am an abhorrent monster because I don’t want tankie hot takes bundled with updates on new cars

This. This is why I keep coming back to Jalopnik. Because even amid the shit political takes no one asked for, you guys publish interesting, relatable and thoughtful pieces on why all of us are irrationally attached to depreciating metal death machines on wheels

Now Torch and David are the last of the real ones...

People are surprised that a multiplayer game has a toxic community?

I’m with you on that one. For the money, if I was interested in something classic from Japan, I would rather spend it on a Datsun 510 since I would have plenty of money left over to add an SR20DET and other suspension/widebody upgrades..

Slacker. Why stop there? Go big or go home.

Neutral:

I see 9 examples of one car:

I’m ok with paying more if it means my neighbor will have a job.  Also, the increased demand for employees will drive wages up, so you’ll have more money to buy those things with.

You mean the Audi looks good on a truck because it’s natural habitat is a flat bed headed back to the dealer? 

Well, it should do well for them, provided it has a strong lead-in from Formulaic Courtroom Drama #872.
