      good for you. the one you’re replying to doesn’t.

      also I’d wager there’s some non-renewable energy being used when you charge either at home or away, and even then, motoring for fun is releasing tons of other shit (particulates from your tires) - maybe time to find a new ‘hobby’

      transportation as entertainment… what a world

        For sure. Given that public roads are the most horrendously undertaxed public resources out there, it’s especially irritating when folks go out of their way to use them in the most self serving fashion imaginable.

        Private tracks exist. They don’t mind engine noise.

          I could get behind this. And let’s be honest, half of them are just living out their child choo choo fantasies, we can let them have the funny hat and be ‘conductors’. they just have to fund their own bullshit and remediation for same.

        1. Not everyone can afford an electric car 2. Harassing individuals has been identified as counter productive over and over again. Maybe try to help the climate crisis by holding the corporations actually responsible for the issue accountable instead of alienating potential allies and giving the movement an overall insufferable vibe.

          1. Not everyone can afford an electric car

          if they can afford to modify their car for shittier performance in order to be louder, then their ability to afford an ev is moot. they’d rig it to spew some other pollutant.

          1. strawman bullshit

          I’m not harassing anyone. Harassing them would be throwing dogshit on their pavement princess jacked up 4x4 bullshit. harassment would be caltrops in their driveway so they can focus on revving it in their driveway for a few more weekends.

          Get it through your skull: Calling people out on their admitted bullshit, when IT’S LITERALLY KILLING THE ONLY ATMOSPHERE WE HAVE, is not harassment

          RE: CORPS - WHY NOT BOTH?

          Why let individuals off for their wretched decisions when they KNEW and were repeatedly informed what they were doing was disgusting, inefficient, counterproductive, it’s shit neighbor, it scares kids and animals, fuck why can’t they ever be fucking blamed for the STUPID DECISIONS THEY MAKE?

          Because I can juggle both those concepts in my head, it’s pretty straightforward even. Give it a go.

              buy me an atmosphere free of your bullshit and I’ll consider it posthaste.

              you can’t.

                  you’re not a petrochemical company you just fuck up your rides to give the petrochemical companies MORE FUCKING MONEY.

                  you’re not a petrochemical company you just don’t care enough about your kids to do the right thing.

                  you’re not a petrochemical company you can’t be held responsible for your stupid fucking choices?

                  yeah, you’re not a petrochemical company, but I suspect you spent way too much time around leaded fuel to have the brainpower to know utter stupidity from simple common decency.

                  bro, figure it out for fucks sake

                    Yeah so if you scroll up a bit, you’ll see that I didn’t say anything about a car. I was speaking on how much negative energy you’re throwing at internet strangers for comparatively inconsequential shit.

                    You seriously need to evaluate why you’re speaking to me and others like this. We’re not your enemies, but unfortunately we’re also not your friends because you can’t win anyone over talking to them like this.

                    You’re making it easier for these companies to fuck us over because you’re directing all of your anger and resentment to us to divide, when you could unite and overcome it. Those emotions can be useful, but they aren’t like this.
