Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid!
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post, there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

And they’re only calling it back because of the pedal as opposed to all other faults. At a guess, this is something they’re more open to regulatory consequences on than others?
I’m not familiar with US auto regulations but I do believe manufacturers have some regulatory pressure (as in if they don’t fix a problem the car will be deemed not roadworthy), but the bigger perception is probably just what the public thinks. You won’t sell many new cars and the used value will plummet if these issues persist.
There’s only under 4k of these painboxes out there so it’s not like they’re flying off the shelves as it is
