  • Can you explain to me in a non condescending way what this comment means? Like genuinely I’m not even sure what you’re trying to say here. A person on the internet posts a link to a website to buy a silly sticker and that is somehow political tribalism? Consumerism is somewhat arguably understandable, considering you have to be a consumer to make a purchase. Although you could always just steal the design and print your own. What makes the post political tribalism though? Is there some sort of echo chamber in the fact that 99.99% of the American population would rather see exploitative CEOs die rather than their own children? Is that an unrealistic platform? What details am I missing here?

    My name comes from an ethnic background but I dont look ethnic so I always get weird Looks at doctors offices because of it. I think its pretty funny but I guess some people dont find it as funny to be “profiled” so to speak. It really depends on the culture you grew up in and how high tolerance actually was for that sort of thing in your life, at least thats my two cents. I dont mind it but others might.












  • As far as I am aware, most of them aren’t directly transmitting data back to the manufacturer, but the data is stored on the car so if you ever have it worked on the dealership can just pull that shit without consent. I could be wrong though, maybe there are cars now that are doing that. I do know that a a lot of cars are taking the iPhone route of having “encrypted” parts, where if one is missing or replaced, the car just won’t work.
