Why is it that movements like this pick short, inflammatory names to only end up spending so much of their time saying “There’s so much more nuance than our name suggests!” I swear, it’s like some people actually WANT to hand their opponents an excuse to casually dismiss them

Unions exert a negative impact on economic efficiency. Unions are cartels of the Democratic Party. 

Thought you were going to Malthus. You didn’t, but still a good reminder:

“Is it a good idea to have kids in 2022?”

Actually read the story man. He’s arguing the city has bigger fish to fry. They need to focus on education to attract younger families. They have to worry about the expansion of infrastructure before adding a ton of people.

The “gotcha” is that they can’t take a pile of money for doing nothing? Cry me a f’ing river.

So, kinda surprised this hasn’t come up already, power accessory motors have had limiting functions for years. The only real difference I can see here is the limit seems to be implemented in software as opposed to hardware. In almost every accessory motor in the past 30 years (Windows, seats, etc) there is a built in…

“Value is pretty much bullshit”

I can’t imagine any other reason China might dislike satellites that provide access to uncensored internet access...

I didn’t say you didn’t get a good deal, I said you didn’t get a deal $12k better than the random schmuck off the street.

“WTF??? People would rather just pay “what Ford says the car costs” instead of investing a few hours shopping around/negotiating to save thousands of dollars? Who are these people?”

Team Four Star FTW!

Dragon Ball GT

No it isn’t. All our rental spec cars in Germany with like 130-160 HP were plenty capable of cruising at 110-120 MPH. This is the same horsepower as my 1995 Camry V6 which also hit 110 plus with no problem and it only had 4 gears. 

No shit. All these comments about the horn, ignoring the fact that the other driver RAN THE GODDAMN LIGHT.

My Miata has a VERY loud horn. Not quite train horn but it will wake you up if I honked it in your driveway at 3am.

The brakes are stupid-proof, and no controller required. It’s a genius system for what it’s designed to do.

So, I’m going to be “that guy’ and disagree with most of this list.
