  • How about the unnecessary tech that just shouldn’t be allowed.

    • Doors that are not primarily manual to open or unlock.
    • Touchscreen of any type. I’m okay with capacitive touch buttons but they should be in a fixed location and physically distinguishable from other surfaces.
    • Electronic e-brake
    • Replacement of any of the main driving functions with anything that is not physical and tactile (turn signals, windshield wipers, headlights)

    At least in the US I feel like technology has leapfrogged regulation.







  • So Trump isn’t Trump enough now?

    2015/16 Trump was a celebrity personality that created a previously non-existent voting base from practically nothing. He parroted talking points that he heard from other seasoned politicians but I’m a way that his followers could celebrate regardless of if they actually understood.

    Once the GOP understood their need for him, he became their tool. He’s nothing more than a GOP mascot and will do the bidding of their wealthy donors. He is the deep state.

    His fans are still against all of that and need to believe that Trump is different. The snake is eating its tail.

    I don’t believe that the GOP has the votes necessary to ever win a presidential election without a new Trump and finding someone with that level of celebrity and ability to work a crowd would be difficult.
