Referencing the Tyre Extinguishers post again, I believe many of these so called "activists" are just vandals looking to cloak their desire to destroy things with environmentalism.
Case in point, the suggestion is made that the SUV is vandalized due to the deaths of two pedestrians. However, the SUV targeted seems to be a newer model that has more advanced safety measures designed to reduced or even eliminate pedestrian collisions.
Automated Emergency Braking
While one can suggest these systems don't work as well as intended, that is better than nothing. Now, as they also complain about the environment being negatively impacted by SUVs (either hybrid or electric) we need to explore the alternatives.
If such a person were to just buy a new car as opposed to owning their SUV for 10+ years, as the environmental impact is massive as it's production cost is resource / carbon intensive.
A response might be to buy used sedans to mitigate the environmental impact but then you have middle to upper class people buying these cars for asking price to near asking price and reducing the supply as well.
This does multiple things. First, it hinders working class people from replacing their even older less efficient cars with more efficient / safer used cars. Second, as the older cars have less automated safety features it increases the chances that a collision will occur with both other vehicles and pedestrians.
See unintended consequences:
I suppose people could take public transit but in many places it's not practical for persons working full time, have kids, or live at home.
Is the cost of housing not a concern that these fuck talk about? Imagine this, a person lives at home but drives to a metro area for work.
Now, the Tyre Extinguishers want this cubical dweller to live closer to their job but rent in such 40% of said persons income. So now instead of saving for a proper home they have to rent a cube then (as they have stated) waste even more of their money getting liquor or less healthy food from a fucking third place.
Sounds like peak consumerism and "You'll own nothing and be happy."
I am not even addressing the lack of equity from not having real estate and the lack of potential investment due to living like a fucking bug men.
The conclusion I have reached is they these fuckers should be shot with some soft tipped .308 or 30.06. I have seen what such a round does to deer so I want to see the exit wounds on these soy faggots.
