    I wish we could go back to the days of the Hummer…

    I wish there was a size max for cars where even the hummer would not be allowed on the road. Cars like pickup trucks and SUV’s increase danger for others. It would be better if there was more public transportation and less cars, and the only cars out there are just plain cars and vans for delivery / mechanic services etc. Because why should other people have a higher risk of dying just because someone has a micropenis?

      “Normal” SUVs are something like 70% more likely to kill the pedestrian in a collision with one that cars like sedans.

      SUVs are anti-social cars.

      IMHO, it’s a great example that The Law isn’t really done to protect common people that those things are allowed on the road when they’re actually unecessary (unlike, say, delivery vans) and almost twice as deadly for other people than normal cars.

      Always has been. These days this just also enables “normal people” with micropenis to endanger their fellow citizens.

      But micropenises basically, in all of history, sent other people to their deaths. Be it war, starvation, random generic atrocities, you name it.

      I feel micropenis is a metaphor for something else here.
