  • Holy fuck.

    Zionism (the political policy supporting the genocide) is not Judaism. How would I know? I'm a Jew and I abhore the Palestinian genocide. Nothing in the Jewish religion supports what is going on nor does anything in our religion say "go be ZIONISTS and kill people".

  • That one no, but there are plenty of leftists in the fediverse that can't understand the concept of "Zionism is not Judaism." And saying such gets you down voted because lol.

  • You're making an assumption that it's an exaggeration. I actually touched on this earlier but we're on the Internet and unless someone goes to lengths to make it clear they are exaggerating or being sarcastic or whatever, that kind of stuff does not convey.

    Example, I fucking hate all ice cream.

    Am I exaggerating or do I actually hate all ice cream?

  • without any advantage over them

    This is a direct quote. Taken at face value, this sentence is saying "everything cars can do, SUVs can also do but SUVs are limited to exactly those capabilities and nothing else." If we take a logical step, it's reasonable to go from the quote and it's breakdown to "SUVs have no real use" because they merely duplicate the capabilities of a car and having a redundant yet unique style of vehicle with no advantages of it's own makes it pretty not useful.

    This is the longer quote

    SUVs also use more resources to run and be produced then small cars, without any advantage over them.

    How are you getting from

    without any advantage over them

    to

    assertion isn’t that no SUV is useful

    ? Cause I see nothing that directly supports that claim and implication + the internet is a pretty bad combo given the general lack of subtlety of blank text on a screen.

    Edit:

    You are attempting to refute data with an anecdote

    I reread this, yes I'm using personal experience to refute a point. I won't deny that, but neither will I deny the validity of this statement. "I was hauling gear that was simply too much for a sedan to handle. I own and haul a Pelican 1660 which is measured at 31.59 x 22.99 x 19.48 in (80.2 x 58.4 x 49.5 cm). That thing wasn't fitting in a honda civic's backdoor, let alone safely into the backseat. Then add a folding table 2 plastic tote boxes and my stagelighting bag? No way.

  • Nice alright, yeah with mine, the seats will fold and you have these moving platforms that you can raise to match the seat back level but you can't put much if any weight on the platform. It's a cool idea but wasn't particularly well designed.

  • Yeah that looks like a really killer feature. would significantly help with the pelican case and (future) roadcases. I have a similar feature in my nissan rogue, but the "stowing" of the seats feels a little hinky.

  • Downvoting and ghosting someone who is giving valid information based on being the first to arrive and the very last to leave for dozens of shows often times getting home around 6am or 10am in the morning the next day is pretty dickish.

    I'm not forcing anyone to like what I'm saying, I simply ask that the experiences being acknowledged for what they are which only one or two people seem to be doing.

  • I don't disagree with you there, but my intention wasn't to compare SUVs/CUVs to other cargo carrying vehicles so much as to point out that sedans and coupes are not nearly as well suited to hauling gear/equipment/boxes.

    I am curious which minivan you have, I'm considering getting back into my moonlighting gig and having options for a more fuel efficient vehicle would be good to keep in mind.

  • SUVs also use more resources to run and be produced *than small cars, without any advantage over them.

    Says someone who has never needed to haul cargo to and some a venue before.

    Other than hauling an actual SUV full of cargo, I agree it's mostly a waste.

    Edit: lol, down votes and ghosting even though an advantage was given. Good job Lemmy, you're acting just like the redditors.
