Clearly, they’re not trying hard enough. Maybe offer something like a grocery bag full of rust flakes for a million dollars, and see who still votes NP?

The 1948 Mustang (not a typo)

It’s great that people are doing something, but it’s also pretty obvious that you can’t just sit back and assume everyone gets it. Lots of otherwise intelligent people assured themselves that no sane person would vote for Trump, and yet, here we are.

It’s true that in some circles that cars have joined guns in the list of things that nice people shouldn’t be interested in, but it’s also just as true that people of all ages continue to be interested in them all the same.

The important thing is, it’s someone else’s fault.

Oh, it’s still going on.  You’re just not being reminded of it.

You had me worried there for a while.  Welcome back!

I suppose, but then every make seems to have its boosters that take themselves way too seriously. If that was a deal breaker, you’d have to resort to bicycles.

If they look like that Maserati, then I wholeheartedly embrace a 21st century where everyone drives a sexy doorstop.

Cybertruck sounds like a Knight Rider knockoff, and the style is just right for low budget 8'80s TV scifi.

It turns out that Morrissey also works very well.

I keep hearing it sung to the tune of Dire Strait’s “Money for Nothing”

Come to think of it, a movie about the Schneider Trophy would be pretty wild

How about the Breedlove-Arfons battle for the land speed record?

As far as redeeming Lena goes, I’m not so sure that’s going to happen. She’s done things that have crossed the line. If anything, I think we’re going to see the transformation to full on nemesis.

Neutral:

My dad used to have an old Caddy, and when I was still young and innocent, tusks is exactly how I read them.  If anything, it reminded me of this oni carving one of my uncles had.

Yes, it does have to get done.  As near as I can tell,  Trump and his mob are just hoping to outlast their opponents.

Like it was said elsewhere, presentation is a big part of it.  If you had “Song of the South” blasting away 24/7 on a big outdoor screen in the middle of town with a big brass plaque proclaiming how great this is, you would have a closer analogy to the monument issue.

Society as a whole was creepy and racist as fuck, and maybe it’s not a bad idea that we remind people every so often.
