This is a last straw, not a reason to leave. This site and the comment system are actively hostile to use. It was mostly to worth it to fight through to get to special content, but I’m done with pop-ups, an unusable comment section, no mobile support and pages that routinely fail to load.
this smug ass response is like the icing on the cake for me leaving. i was already out the door anyway, but i kept coming back for torch and tracy. but this attitude right here seems to be taking over the culture of the writers at jalopnik and i have to think it’s souring the taste of many who might still read this…
First, grow up. Millions of people read this site, if you want to stop, go with god.

No, they were burning cities and killing people.
How is this different from BLM protesters blocking roads last year? This is just on a larger scale. At the time, supporters were saying things like “protests are supposed to cause inconvenience” to make your message heard.
