You're a much bigger queer than he is.

Explain to me. What’s the deal with
“Kill switch technology”? It’s clearly an issue I haven’t been following…

I understand that you love to imagine a narrative of anyone who isn’t maga being purple haired lgbtq’s slinging lattes at your starbucks, but I promise you we’re not all the kind of people that your maga bumper stickers and slogans want you to believe.

I can rebuild a carburetor and I can build a deck and I’ve actually done both of those things within in the last 2 weeks. I bet you can do neither and you’d be lost if you had to.

So I wouldn’t believe what this (mostly) cozy lil echo chamber pounds into your maga propaganda addled brain daily bubba.

The law and order crowd will tell you it is for safety. Cops will be able to disable a car that is let's say in a high speed chase just by having someone on a computer hitting the enter button. What they will not acknowledge is the potential for abuse. Kind of like the dozens of cops caught using Flock cameras to stalk women just in 2026. I think 18-20 just in Georgia alone.

You mean the same MAGA that constantly trashes ball-less Republicans for consistently siding with dems?

Weird, isn't it?

It seems like Recucks don't really have the best interests of their constituents in mind. Yeah, it really is weird, isn't it?

I mean the ones who equate Massie voting Nay against Trump as siding with Democrats, when he motives are not the same. You know the ones that do not understand correlation vs causation

I had already planned on getting some old classic diesel truck with no computer chips for a bugout vehicle anyways. Guess I better get on that.

They’ll mess with the supply of parts or insurance on those vehicles to make it difficult or too expensive for most people to avoid so we just give up and accept it.

Between this and flock it’s hard not to believe the WEF surveillance state is being enacted by the GOP and it’s almost impossible to believe we can vote our way out of it.

I think it is weird when someone who wants no new wars, is not in the Israel bag, wants to protect civil liberties, and is against deficit spending is some how less America First

Educate me

Donald Trump has frequently praised House Speaker Mike Johnson, calling him a "good, hard working, religious man" and an "amazing speaker" who handles a very slim congressional majority better than anyone else.

I mean cops have automatic rifles, tanks, drones, all sorts of military gear. If they want your car to stop, they have a lot of ways to do it that seem a lot worse than a remote kill switch. I think the steelman case for this is about police pursuits that are very dangerous to innocent drivers, situations where cops are gonna be run over, cars running over people at festivals and stuff. I just can’t get that worked up about it in light of the power the police already have.

No it’s not that I want to give them more, it’s that if anyone actually cared about the underlying issue, they’d be trying to reign in the militarized police force we have, not pretending like this kill switch remotely affects your freedom to drive a car more than all the other lethal tools we give to government at all levels. It’s just performance art. “Virtue signaling” nonsense. But I guess it’s the nature of our politics (and certainly this forum).

Why would you not want the price of your cars to go up? Wouldn't that mean you can now, if you wish, sell them for more and make a bigger profit?

I find it disgusting every time the Rs gain power in DC they squander the opportunity and the Democratic Socialist's vision for the US creeps forward......pattern recognition.
