    The first time I read this, I thought the author was advocating murdering other people with your car as an escape from the crushing burden of life 😅

    Don’t kill yourself, kill everyone else instead!

      That’s… That’s not what this is? I can’t figure out any other way it can be interpreted.

        It’s satire, pointing the cognitive dissonance that allows people to recognize that fumes are deadly but never question the fact that our entire “modern” concept of city planning is built around constantly being in and around the machines that produce these fumes 24/7.

    I am so pleased to be raising my kids out in the forest with clean air and delicious well water.
