I never understood how so many people can like driving. Whenever I have to drive, it’s usually the low point of my day.

That’s the thing. They don’t like driving either. They are raging most the entire time. It is either the rage is the closest they feel to a real emotion or simply fetishism about cars and driving being the thing you have to do with a car.

I can understand enjoying driving. As in a comfortable drive in a low-density area. But traffic to me is like the opposite of that. You’re forced to be in a car but not allowed to move.

Like being in a train car moving at 4 mph and also you have to pay for train gas

And also have to put effort into paying attention to one of the most monotonous tasks possible.

I enjoy driving in one very particular situation and even then I have to be in the right mood. It has to be by myself, middle of the night on long straight rural highways with no one else around. Put on music or a podcast and that can be pretty nice. That only happens like twice a year though.

Basically, driving can be pleasant, but having to drive isn’t, and the former is practically nonexistent.

It’s impossible to go anywhere in most parts of the US without driving so they associate being told not to drive with being confined to their homes.

They are miserable and want you to be as miserable if not moreso.

This man says carbon is good because we’re made of carbon. “When they talk about reducing carbon they mean they want to reduce you.”

Why do I get the feeling that he will still be gung ho about consoooooming all the freshwater if I told him that he is 70% water?

This feels like an idiocracy bit.

I will comply with his demand to put more carbon in the atmosphere by tossing him in a wood chipper and spaying his carbon into the air.

Plants breathe CO2. The more we shove CO2 in the air, the better the plants get. Brawndo has electrolytes. It’s what plants crave.

:wtf-am-i-reading:

I will never understand my fellow man. Is there something wrong with me because I want to go from point A to point B as efficiently as possible, without being forced to buy shit, and with as little stress as possible? Even if there was, I don’t want to be right.

I think it’s Wilks family, as this was apparently kicked off by the shills at the Daily Wire.

Yup, but GB News is pushing this stuff heavily here and they are funded by the Kochs via the Legatum think tank.
