Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

"Why are you so emotional? All the atoms that make up your loved ones still exist, they're just spread all over the roadway now"
A lot of bazingas can and have had takes like that, and it doesn't help that they got the movie version instead of the graphic novel.
Why are techbros opposed to being summarily executed? Appeal to emotion fallacy perhaps? It would be good for overall society so they must support it as a matter of principle.
Mfer using the "playing the game in stealth mode" argument.
Over 30mph the dominant factor in sound is tires, not engines, and you're a lot less likely to be killed by an EV sedan cruising along at a placid rate than a Road Dominator 3000 at the same pace because the sedan will hit you in the legs vs the chest and head.
I mean you'll look like Cotton from King of the Hill after it's done with your shins but much preferable to pink mist.
