A Sense of Responsibility to Society

"As bad as things are here, they are even worse over there.
In the UK, Toyota ads for the Hilux – which is the export-variant of the Tacoma pick-up and the 4Runner SUV sold here – have been banned because the UK’s Advertising Standards Authority says that showing trucks and SUVs doing what trucks and SUVs are designed to do demonstrates contempt for a “sense of responsibility to society.”
Whatever that means.
Of course, we do know what it means. If you understand what Leftists mean when they utter such things. It means the Left does not like it – and that means if you do, you are “irresponsible.”
“Society” being the Left.
It is of a piece with the Left’s styling of opposition to Leftism – or even questioning it – as a “threat to our democracy.” Italics added, to emphasize that the Left means their “democracy.” In which you are free to agree with the Left.
...
there is the getting-tiresome lie that any new gas-engined vehicle is “highly polluting.” Or – for that matter – any vehicle with an engine made since at least the early 2000s, by which time meaningful pollution had been reduced to so little it no longer had any meaning, except in an angels-dancing-on-pinheads sense."

There is a thriving market for replacement rear quarters.
My F-150 had the infamous cab-conner cancer, as well as the the rocker panels. I got a lot better resale by repairing them before I put it up for sale.
Just the F-150 alone is the best selling vehicle in America.
Add to that all the Chevy's, GMC's, Rams, Tundra's and Titans... that would account for half the vehicles on the road.
Pickups last twice as long as your typical sedan, they work harder. Tradesmen would screwed if they pulled that crap here.
I don't go more than a few days without needing the payload and towing capacity that only a truck can provide.
If one vehicle lasts twice as long as another, that's material, energy and labor saved by not having building a new one to disposing of the old one.
These people have shiite for brains.
Such a statement is pure hypocrisy from politicians bent on removing the very tools that people would need for such actions.
Police and the military are PAID to offer such protection, while I am responsible for the safety of myself and my family, alone.
Me a MAGA dino done voted for Orange Man Bad twice.
Me a good dino.
Since the USSR collapsed, the fedgov has become the new evil empire and
in that role they no longer value the freedom of Americans.
Now the dog (fedgov) obeys the will of the tail (UN) because that reduces
the freedom of Americans and increases fedgov power.
NIFO to both D.C. and the UN.
In the meantime, kill the UN, and/or withdraw.
as we are seeing on TV with the pro-terrorist protests
death by suicide
and the US is not that far behind it seems
except we can still fight back
