People who proudly boast about how they never spend a dime on Epic Games, in their store, but has hundreds of free games to play with no intent to play them. Like, I don’t know who is supposed to be impressed by that. Not to mention, that’s not really a good method of protesting if you’re someone who hates Epic Games.
You’re still spending the time and effort, not to mention even bothering to have an account with them to begin with, to redeem free games that they give away. Who are you seriously trying to impress or what message are you trying to convey? Because all I see are contradictions and ironies.
not every car is used for transportation dude. many are used for recreation, for aesthetics, for self-expression, etc.
please go to a car show full of car people and lecture them how they are all weirdos, see how that works out for you.
If someone has a car to drive on closed tracks that’s completely reasonable sport. Driving like an idiot on public roads is not. Most “car people” are just big children driving loud cars around pissing everyone off. There’s no point in lecturing those people. They don’t have the brain capacity necessary to comprehend this.
you don’t know any car people. most car people are not doing that. most car folks are very very serious about driving and driving well and safely and yeah, they do not do stupid shit unless it’s on a closed track or it’s a rural area where there are no other cars or people to possibly hit or endanger.
what you are talking about is obnoxious assholes, who are not necessarily car people. they are just obnoxious assholes.

lol. You’re wrong. That isn’t a scotsman fallacy… further your original claim was nothing more than a brash generalization claiming all car people are loud and obnoxious, which is also a fallacy. God. I love lemmy. Everytime someone tries to show you that you are making a logically fallacy, it’s always, always, always, a made in their original claim. It’s so hilarious how many of you are clueless about your own ignorance, and yet you feel like you are the very smart peopel who know about logic and only you are logically consistent. You’re not.
I said, you don’t know them. Which you obvious, you do not. You are clueless and you are doubling down on your ignorance to feel superior rather than possibly admit, you’re wrong, and what you are calling out is a certain subset of people
The fallacy is that you’re now claiming that obnoxious idiots are not “car people”. According to you, people that “love cars” are only “car people” if they have money and like “fancy” cars. Idiots that get exited by tuned up BMWs are not “car people”.
Which of course if false. All of them are “car people”. Rich car people driving expensive cars are the minority. Majority are the loud idiots. Of course you’re looking down at them and don’t recognize them as part of your group. You’re “superior” because you go to car shows, not parking lots outside of town. For me you’re all the same. Silly people getting exited about silly machines. Your distinction is meaningless.
P.S. And of course I know plenty “car people”. Everyone does. You’re not some secret society. We went to school with “car people” and we work with “car people”. The roads are full of you and we all see bunch of you every day.
I’m not a car person. I am just calling out your narrow-minded bitterness towards people who enjoy cars as obnoxious idiots.
I wonder what interests you have that others would find obnoxious and revolting.
You only see as “car people” the part that’s not obnoxious while willfully ignoring huge part of it so I would say you’re the narrow-minded one.
I’m a cyclist. I’m sure a lot of people hate me but to my defense my community kills way less people.
