The greatest car ever, the car that saved all life on earth, spontaneously ignites.

8. If the air pollution that kills seven million people per year was radioactive, you'd give a shit.

It turns out that the only thing that people give a shit about is radioactivity, which is amazing.

The planet's atmosphere contains nearly 412 ppm of the dangerous fossil fuel waste carbon dioxide, the seas are rising, violent weather's taking place, and we have very, very, very, very, witty and amused people with wedgies over the fact that Elon Musk's car for billionaires and millionaires is the best thing in the world.

Oh yes, and, radioactivity is the end of the world. All of the radiation leaks on this planet have wiped it out which is why no one is left to drive the stupid ass fucking piece of shit car that collected subsidies on a planet where 800,000 people per year, most of them children, die from diseases connected to a lack of basic sanitation.

Comments on that fact never draw as much attention as comments about the stupid fucking car for millionaires and billionaires. (Liberalism seems to have changed in its meaning while I grew old.)

This post is precisely designed to draw out the worst aspects of this mentality, and apparently did so quite nicely. (Thanks!)

Oh, and sorry, I am never, ever going to "love" a car whether powered by clean nuclear energy or dirty coal and gas with a picture of a wind turbine on its marketing material.

I'm an environmentalist, not a person given to paeans to consumer junk. The car CULTure is not sustainable, and the people who try putting band aids on it are clueless and are robbing future generations.

Have a wonderful day tomorrow.
