In the absence of a flair system on lemmy yet, let’s try to make it easier to scan through posts by type in here by using tags:
I love how everyone here is more or less on the same side but still kicking each other in the shins what the appropriate level of anger is.
I don't actually like it when everyone agrees with me. It's... useless. I prefer dialectical friction.
I feel like something like this should have a steel structure the same shape or a little smaller on either side so that if a dumbass like this tries to get through with too big of a car they just damage the car not the tree. Kinda like those things before parking garages or drive thoughs for height, but on the sides

I mean, it makes it sound like he crashed into the tree. He scrapped his car mirror off into the tree. Dumb but that tree has seen a lot worse, stop with the damn clickbait
fuck. cars.
What a braindead response. Fuck cars and fuck you too, how bout that?
try looking at the name of the community you’re commenting in loooool
You mean fuck cars, like I said? Doesn’t excuse op for his clickbait bullshit, as there are plenty of real problems with cars to talk about.
Things like this discredit the argument, as the naysayers can point to posts like this and say “see? They’re just full of shit why listen to them?”
as there are plenty of real problems with cars to talk about.
Cars and car infrastructure is ruining various natural areas, the ones that are left, and most semi-natural ones on land. Cars and car roads are the first wounds in intact land ecosystems, they make room for infection that ruins habitats.
Do you want some reading? I have a bunch of nice peer-reviewed articles on how cars need to fuck off from wild and semi-wild areas.
You should make a post about that instead
Too bad.
Was he fined 10 times the car was worth and forbidden from driving anything more complicated than a lawnmower for a decade?
