Don't worry, our choice for each election is capitalism and cruelty free capitalism, it's always been a matter of time.
It will always be the case that given enough time a capitalist will find a way to convince the public to vote against self interest just a little, and then the snowball starts rolling.
There will soon come a time when I am only able to shop for a new car at a junkyard.
Get a horse, gonna be cheaper it seems. And you don't have to pay for heated seats haha
Have you seen the prices for oats these days!?
Yes.... but, grass goes in, fast comes out, use your horse for lawn care services lol
Maybe we just throw an ad on the windshield... Like a little one... Off to the side?
Imagine pulling up to a red light, checking your GPS for directions, and suddenly, the entire screen is hijacked by an ad. That’s the reality for some Stellantis owners. Instead of seamless functionality, drivers are now forced to manually close out of ads just to access basic vehicle functions.
Oh HELLLLL no. I hope my 2012 Subaru will last until I'm either dead or too old to drive. I don't even want to have these damn screens for the usual shit you have to do on them. I want to be able to do everything with physical controls, no eavesdropping, and no dependence on a fucking app or touchscreen to operate anything in my car! I will drive my car while wearing mittens! shakes fist
Classic cars my man.
Aw yeah, 14mpg, two distinct oil leaks, and cabins full of mold because the vintage weather strips failed forty years ago. (I drive a late 90s pickup and am acutely aware of the tradeoffs that come with older cars, even ones that are maintained relatively well.)
Worth it, when the alternative is ads
Make the jeep 50% cheaper and I’d deal the ads. Otherwise …
They'll make it cheaper for awhile to justify it to the public and government and then slowly raise the price so that you're paying full price AND watching ads.
So Netflix….
YouTube TV
If you slam on the brakes it makes the ad extra large
