When the domestic terrorists, errrr, ummm, cuntservatives do it, people will be numb to it and simply accept ii.

    Not likely, L’il PP, you’ll have to be more subtle if you want to overthrow democracy; learn from your American betters: this process can take years, even decades. Why, it even with state authority to gerrymander and suppress voters, it took them over 15 years to subjugate the SCOTUS, and fill it with enough bribable (Thomas, Roberts) and pliable (Gorsuch, Coney-Barrett and Cry-baby Kavanaugh) stooges that they could start cancelling laws they felt were to humanist and compassionate.

    THAT’s the time scale, PP, not an election cycle. Look long term. /s

  • Now I want an onboard system that hides my tag until it sees a pig bike/car/van, warns ME (the schlep who pays for it) and reveals the tag. Why is tech serving the pigs and not the owners who drive the vehicles as they were designed? Oh, that’s right, the cozy relationship between corporations and leo gangs. FML

    And if you think I drive aggressively now, buy one of these stitchmobiles and see how often you’re cut off, brake checked, and given a hassle. Spoiler alert: it’ll be a lot more. A LOT.
