Not just line go up. Line must go up more than it has previously gone up. A slightly lesser growth is apparently lethal

Yeah tbh there would be no harm in banning them. If you need a work truck, those are fine. No person in the world needs an SUV or an oversized pickup truck

Even the most reliable drivers overlook something, get distracted by something on the road or in the car. These features absolutely help more than they harm.

Of course not, what makes you think anything i said is even vaguely related to those negative cherry picks?

Is car manufacturing and design not tech?

Do impact detection, brake assist/auto brake, modern lane assist, distance detection etc not add to safety? I could probably rattle on

With the ever growing HEMA and reenactment scene, there are a bunch of really good forges/manufacturers putting out fantastic training equipment, replicas and custom work, sharp and blunt.

With our machining and material science I'd guess that a high end sword now would blow the originals out of the watee

Much safer now though. Traffic accidents are much less lethal nowadays (except SUV/Truck vs ped)

Yeah leaning on "tradition" or "conservation" when its just bigotry under the hood is a staple.

Adorable! I'm a bit fatigued of all the releases, but i love when they make beautiful trailers and supplemental content like this.

I hope my sarcasm was clear

Not really the same thing at all though is it?

Also bit of a weird constructed example. A faith like that can only lead to it's followers taking offense or religious totalitarianism.

Which is not something I'd engage with so idk why i would tolerate something so intolerant.

The comparison is also kinda failing since one is a belief and the other isn't.

A more fitting comparison would be ostracising someone for their faith vs insisting to misgender someone despite better knowledge.

If you're trying to make an analogy here, that's incredibly short sighted.

Forcing religious values down other ppls throats is trying to dictate their life.

"forcing" aka asking to be referred to with certain pronouns is asking to have your own life respected.

One is about having your beliefs respected, the other is demanding others to act as if they were part of your faith no matter if they believe or care.
