I’d argue for drop that extends across the width of the lane, or both. Couple that with a system that can penetrate heavy rain, and two truck drivers might have lived through a washout of Interstate 88 in Central N a few years back. They didn’t have much of a chance back then.
Have you seen the quality of content on Tiktok?
Blah blah blah.
Says you. You’re also inflating my example and simplifying it, making a strawman out of it. I say differently, and so do all those folk downvoting you.
I’m done with this discourse. You’re determined to stick to your position in the mud, and not worth the effort. Good luck with that.
You’re minimizing, plain and simple, by accentuating the positive aspects and softening the negative. Generally folk minimizing are in support of the thing they claim to be in opposition of.
If that’s not your intent, then you really need to work on your communication skills.
As for being triggered, you’re wrong. I believe you’re projecting. Might the cause be all those down votes your posts are receiving? Sure, they don’t mean much… Other than each vote meaning one person disagrees with you. Some folk can’t handle that well.
“I think that instead of it being the end we will simply learn that fully fascist world is actually quite good for business and nothing will change for vast majority of people. I’m not saying it will be good. It will be worse, just not as bad as you think.”
My understanding of your statement: Fascism is good for business! Sure, it’s bad for some people, but most people won’t even notice it. There’s good things about fascism that you’re not aware of. It’s not all bad!
Triggered? Hardly. I’m not about to let a comment like the above go untouched for the bullshit it is, however.
You need to take a walk down to your local library and read some history books.
You’re the one extolling the virtues of fascism.
Add projection to the list, too. You’re just trolling, now. Good luck with that.
Even for a bootlicker, you seem especially bitter, sarcastic, and downtrodden. Might help to find someone licensed to talk that out. Ain’t healthy keeping it bottled up, and spewing vitriol on Lemmy doesn’t help anyone.
Better than trying to lick my way to the center of a boot while making disingenuous jabs on Lemmy.
Speaking up and calling out fascist behavior. Not spending my money on businesses that promote fascists. Voting. Keeping my long barrel in good condition, may it never need to be used.
Soap, ballot, jury, and cartridge boxes, in that order.
Spoken like a good little bootlicker.
Best keep that tongue on that boot, lest it steps on you instead. Same goes for those businesses under a fascist government. I’m sure life will be good for them, especially if they don’t mind the taste of leather.
Remove their tongue from the boot, and business won’t be good for them.
Sounds like someone needs to be doing the Googling they keep preaching about.

This. I’ve come across more than a few posts discussing solutions to various problems. Said solutions are shallower than a wading pool. Playing devil’s advocate and poking and prodding to invoke some critical thinking is met with downvotes and derision.
It just ain’t worth it.
Uh huh.
This conversation is over.
Have you ever been to Upstate NY? Had a friend or family spend any time at all up here? I’m thinking you should. That might shine a big spotlight on the differences in living here vs the UK.
Let’s not stop there. Get big corporations out of the legislature. End Citizen’s United.
If the poor folk could organize, pool money together, and spend time lobbying, we might have a chance. We suck at organizing, we’re too short on cash just trying to stay afloat, and we’ve no time to be spending lobbying, either.
You’re right, in that my truck is not everything. It’s a significant point of failure to my ability to maintain my house and life. You can doubt all you want. Do the math: I’m burning 40-80 of wood pellets every day. That’s an 800 lbs load every 10 to 20 days.
Your answer is to replace my Baja & Tacoma with an Outback and trailer. With the cost of everything rising, you want me to sell off my existing vehicles (with their value dropping, as nobody without a work permit can operate them), and replace them… Or hire out a general contractor for all the work I’ve been doing myself.
FYI: That Baja of mine is tow rated for 2,400 lbs.
Man, I’d love to live in whatever world you’re dreaming up. It ain’t the real one, that’s for sure.
Brakes. You left out the important bit. My Baja will tow a lot more than it’ll stop.
Your plan would have me up the creek without a truck, especially if the Baja gets lumped into the truck category on account of it having a bed. Judging from the blank “apply for a permit” plan, it probably would.
I’ve gone down that “Just rent a truck from UHaul.” It stops being realistic when the local UHaul lot can’t handle current demand, much less whatever happens after y’all have taken trucks out of everyone else’s hands.
Take away my ability to keep my house heated, much less in good repair, and you’ll take away my ability to house myself, my family, my pets. They’re everything to me. Take everything away from a man, and see what happens. Then multiply that by every upstate, rural, blue collar man trying to get by… And see what happens to society. It ain’t gonna be pretty.
Protests typically do not involve attempting to bash in interior windows, gaining access beyond barricaded doors, and armed officers having to resort to lethal measures to stop allegedly protestors.
Attempted insurrections do.

Got anything other than your precious feelings to back that statement up, snowflake?
