I keep seeing this pop up in comment sections, about how you need to tint your windshield to protect you from the F350 Xenon Eyemelters and if you don't that's your fault. What the fuck? What do you mean tint your windshield, how the fuck do you see at night?

In Europe they have adaptive headlights that specifically block out oncoming traffic, giving best of both worlds. US does not have it because of US headlight standards.

Sounds too good to be true for america

Are you familiar with rolling coal?

If that got introduced in america there would immediatly be mods to turn on the high beams and make the headlights point directly at oncoming traffic.

It would be a culture war issue and not high beaming every vehicle that doesn't have a trump flag would be woke.
