You guys had your chance. Instead you shoved giant fucking trucks and SUVs down our throats while telling us we didn't want good, small, electric cars. I hope you all choke to death.
If your windows don't open, you don't burn to death when the stored energy equivalent of a couple hundred sticks of dynamite under you catches fire. Doors should ABSOLUTELY be obvious, direct, mechanical and reliable, and it's INSANE we even have to have this discussion in 2026. This is Engineering 101 stuff.
Safety is one thing. Crumple zones, seat belt designs... ALL of this is laudable, but it sure as heck isn't where the costs are inflating so much.
It's linear increase in size with exponential increase in cost, always-on telemetry, and thousands of little "value-ads" that have absolutely NOTHING to do with getting you from point A to point B.
The people who didn't vote aren't some magical absolution of responsibility. They were either okay with this or didn't care either way, and apathy doesn't count in the "good" pile. I'm an American and want to find a way to justify defending the US too, but this particular argument doesn't hold any water. I could JUST as easily claim they all would've voted for Trump and they didn't show up because they figured he had it in the bag.
This is the Board of Peace that costs $1 billion to join and has a permanent installed chairman who sent a letter to the Prime MInister of Norway threatening to invade and take over a sovereign ally because he didn't receive an award about how peaceful he was?
Can't imagine why they wouldn't be eager to get in on that.
