I think he’s talking to the Jaloptariat

1st-

I’m pretty sure she filmed some of these videos AT work, which changes the story entirely

I came here bracing myself for a deafening chorus of clueless Dave Ramseyesque financial sanctimony but instead found some much needed skepticism and pushback. Bravo Jalops!

Trying to be diplomatic. No offense to Erik and others here but I feel like we are watcing this site implode in slow motion. The talent exodus, the decline in editorial quality... I only come here out of pure habit

I feel like quarantine is starting to mess with you man. This makes no sense. Sure, let’s take a lane of some of the parkways + avenues for people to go hang out on. Let’s gum up the small arteries to give people who actually need to be out that much more hassle getting around. All for what? To let people mix it up…

Like clockwork, the bootstrap testimony, followed the litany of judgments and stereotypes of the poor.

Hope you can catch another limb on the way down. My credit is good enough that the bank works for me, not the other way around.

A lot of people make money doing shitty things. That doesn’t make it right. His show encourages superficial financial judgment.

His show is just financial schadenfreude. You listen to it and you get to say “I’m so great because I make better decisions than these people”. Seems like everyone I come across who likes his show loves to judge everyone’s financial decisions and can’t wait to tell you how great they are for pulling themselves up by…

Oh look, a Dave Ramsey puppet. Hand so far up your ass he's making you talk.

Who is the “we” in your sentence, and why should anyone give a fuck what that “we” thinks?

Let me guess. Dave Ramsey is your spirit guide. I’m so tired of the financial sanctimony and schadenfreude. There are plenty of people who “work hard and make the right choices” who are still barely scraping by and there are plenty of people who don’t who still end up very well off. 

But! But!

Jalopnik hypocrisy, whittled down to 2 sentences.

Neutral: sim racing. Cheaper than a beater project and in my opinion much better value. Even in normal times I can't carve 30-60 minutes out of a day to drive. 

So Nissan didn’t just release a new Altima and Sentra? They haven’t been well received in the press? You are just making shit up now and prioritizing saving face over dealing with reality.

I don’t see the point of chasing a moving target. You claimed Nissan hasn’t done anything to update its lineup; I showed that was blatantly false. Instead of saying “hey you’re right my bad”, you immediately and shamelessly pivot to Nissan’s financials, how they don’t have anything you want to buy and how the Rogue…

The Z isn’t overpriced. What yields better value? The closest is the Camaro V6, which has a much cheaper suspension. If Jalopnik told you to jump off a bridge, would you? Or are you capable of parsing information and forming your own opinions?

Yet the Murano outsells the CX-9 2:1, and the Civic was the top selling compact in 2019.
