The first two seasons of Narcos was kind of hilarious. The actor they got to play Murphy looks entirely different than the real dude - for starters, the actor and character in the show is blonde while Murphy in real life is not.
Next thing you know, Elongated Muskrat will change its profile pic to wearing a fedora, trenchcoat, fingerless gloves, and a katana - everything all black, of course. Then they’ll play some shit like Bury the Light on their next Xitter post saying some real “psshh…. nuthin personnel, kidd…” kind of stuff.
Well, the rich seems to like the stuff the batshit insane right are spewing. Plus, they also benefit from those policies, like abortion bans, child labor law regressions, and of course tax cuts for those earning 6 figures at minimum.
America’s “left” is also not fighting these insane policies effectively. It’s like they’re pointing fingers at the GOP and going “Hey, that’s bad.”
Cars are one of the things that actually empowers individuals to live their individualized lives.
So if I’m forced to live in my car or forced to use it because I would otherwise most likely be run over if I was riding a bike or the distance is too far for walking and I can’t catch public transit to my destination, am I empowered? Having a choice of how I want to get to places is empowering, not “oh I’ll guess I’ll go in my car”. I can see the argument for living in a car, but I also know that people sometimes make that choice because it is literally cheaper to buy and re-do a car so they can live in it rather than renting in some areas.
Cars are, and honestly should be treated as, a luxury good. It’s fun to drive around some routes form time-to-time, but I’d much rather bike or ride public transit to places rather than drive.
