Nihilist fatalism; maybe not the best message for car journeys.

It’s because she’s not humble. Society wants women to be utterly flawless and also totally blind to their perfection. We can’t have women knowing their worth.

It’s about exerting power. “They just don’t know any better” is not a valid response.

I don’t even care; this thing looks great. More handsome even then the Accord, which also looks quite good. Where does this fit in with the Clarity Plug In, though?

My take is that someone who shits on people who own trucks because they poorly effect people across the world (not proven), is a stupid and hypocritical take... Nobody is denying climate change.

This is a very stupid conversation. Your position that anybody using anything man made must be immediately excised from the conversation about climate change is a ridiculous one. I do not accuse you of deviating from your ridiculous take.

I think they’re more than just “Twitter fools.” There is a concerted effort, from the top on down, to make “anti-fascism” equivalent to an organized movement to reinvigorate white-supremacy in the United States.

The latter was not a sincere question for you to answer but an attempt to show the ridiculousness of your position. Clearly you are blind to it.

Oh. I... strongly disagree. Moreover, I’m not even sure how one can isolate human perceptions and behaviors from the backdrop of collective scientific knowledge. It’s fundamental to our understanding of the world.

You know that OP owns a pickup? Or that they have a personal electronic device and reside in a domicile connected to the energy grid and are therefore forbidden forevermore from commenting on the excessive fuel consumption of certain cars?

I don’t understand the point you’re trying to make.

So too is the false self-righteousness in using the poors as a cudgel to argue against taking any substantive action on an issue that you have a personal disagreement with.

The first clean air act was passed in the 1950s. Climate science has been around since the 1800s.

It is almost as if people are acting on the scientific consensus that climate change is real and are actively taking measures to reverse those trends.

Yeah, this thing is not nearly cute enough to distract from its godawfulness.

Wish we got this instead, which is a Real Car.

Well, I mean, climate change is a thing. And in terms of crop yield and protection from heatwaves, it disproportionately affects the poor.

RAV4 Hybrid is not a big ass truck, though. People buy big ass trucks because they want big ass trucks.

I think there’s very little overlap between the JDM folks and the people who just want a cute little two-door.

I still maintain that they should have marketed the thing toward the leisure, “What a sporty little coupe!” crowd. Scion TCs were pretty big back in the day!
