Breaking through these made up barriers is the best thing we can do in the US right now to fight those jackasses and their tyranny.

Gen Z may think they have it rough but millennials are the most burned-out generation

What, you think they'd report on anything useful to keep their role as the Fourth Estate? Naaah. CLICKBAIIIIIT!!

The Jackal would be jealous, his minivan didn't look nearly that hot.

Especially when those closed-minded anus-licking morons don't realize that pretty much any change is opportunity for profit, they just have to follow the market shift and become leaders in the appropriate industries of the future.

Not trying to sound "yay capitalism 4eva" but seriously, the whole beauty of (properly regulated) capitalism is, "holy shit a new thing, lets go make billions!" Instead, they bury their heads, and everyone else's, in the sand, and miss out on opportunity while they kill everyone.

But hey, change is scary to their tiny brains and they can't comprehend, so oh well...

Surprised they are only now complaining that it resembles warehouse work, they were shitty to work for as a software engineer before "AI". Can't imagine what hellscape they are now.

There are definitely beneficial tax/benefit implications to failing businesses in certain situations. (Similar to how if you suck at stocks, you get perks.) Not out of the realm of possibilities. Given that his early life had successes, it could very well be that he learned failure is more profitable. Given the silver spoon in his mouth, less possible he learned, rather than existed and bumbled into it. Either way, not someone to put a lot of stock in. When you're bootstrapped with a certain amount of money, as long as your accountants keep you from being an abject fool, you'll never be poor a day in your life. Like, if most Americans had somewhere around $5 million invested conservatively, (don't trust this number, random deep memory grab that may be in error, and based on current money in the last decade) they could live on the dividends (money generated) while never touching the nest egg, and live a normal comfortable life without working for the rest of their lives.

Failing a business is only profitable because of abuse of laws. Laws can be changed, and should be. Success should always be the goal.

There's legitimately an entire genre of CEO that exists in the USA just to go into a company and purposely destroy it, and collect a golden parachute exit payout, for example. Shouldn't ever exist.

Is it funny or sad that I know all this, yet I work my ass off to survive?

Far from safe and riddled with defects. The cheap door handle design alone to skimp on the cost of a few latches making them death traps, coupled with the laminate glass on every window so you can't break out is ludicrous. Skipping out on lidar or radar to rely solely on optical safety sensors is babytown frolics, when proven multi-sensor designs that can actually see better than humans already exist.

They also don't locate the brake lines in proper locations, causing them to prematurely rust out and break, but who cares about being able to stop, right?

It is hilarious watching the glitchy car UI constantly misidentify objects as it drives by them, though.

Who cares about a phone app? They are supposed to be a thing you drive.

Cars designed via broken software design principles is the dumbest thing ever.

Hope you are able to get something safer once you realize how terrible they are, before it hurts or kills you.

On the other hand, since the Federal government is no longer adhering to the rule of law, nobody should care to.

Respect one's state and local laws, if they are fair, and one feels like it. Otherwise? Fuck it all.
