   One of the great things about drivers is, if a pedestrian or cyclist offends them in any way, they’ll drive more dangerously & threaten other pedestrians and cyclists. But if a _car_ impedes them in any way, they’ll drive more dangerously & threaten pedestrians and cyclists.

     @Steve8282 someday folks invested in white fragility will understand there’s a difference between something you are and some shit you spend money on. Drivers are not a race! Even race car drivers! Are you dumb or just pretending to be dumb?

     @anildash My grandfather made broad generalizations like this about non-white people and women. Good times.

     @jpoz @anildash @Steve8282 I’m sure this is merely correlative, not causative, right? Right?: Chart showing car vs SUV sales, 2007-2017. Source, Kelly Blue Book
