That's the scary part though, I don't get any more bugs hitting the windshield while travelling. Used to need to wash it after arriving but now they are just gone... We completely fucked up the environment
Sad thing is, anybody still not worried by, or unconvinced of, this being our fault also likely sees this as very good news.
According to physics, movement is relative. So both you and bug family are right.
Man, if only back when I killed those 5 pedestrians I would've said "the pedestrians hit me". Now I'm going to jail. Oh well
I have legitimately had a pedestrian hit me.
I was stopped and my car was in park waiting for a gas pump to open up. This idiot watching TikTok’s while walking proceeds to walk straight into the side of my car, and then started yelling at me.
I was in a parking spot too.
When I was a kid, I ran my bike into a parked car. Of course, this was back before cars were mostly fiberglass, so it hurt me more than the car, lmao
You had a terrible lawyer if they couldn't get you off of those charges.
A meme I made a few months ago:
He stepped into the road, he knew the risks of jayflying
I said the same thing about that firefighting plane that hit that drone. The drone was just hovering there when that idiot pilot flew a fucking plane into it.
History is written by the victors
But did you see what the big was wearing? It was totally asking for it
A deer hit my car once. And that is the right phrasing. It slammed into my moving vehicle which was moving at a 90 angle to its path. I had no choice in the matter.
Lol yes of course. At this point posting that is very akin to blaming me for how society exists in its current form, like that famous cartoon. "Curious, you participate in society yet disagree with it"
I have built my life around avoiding driving in the years since this incident for a million reasons, so you're preaching to the choir.
It’s good to have an alternate perspective. But this one is pretty bad. Cars and freeways are terrible. But many “bugs” aren’t so great either. Carrying diseases like malaria, destroying trees and crops. Infecting other animals. Then to anthropomorphize them and talk about their “families”, just seems like an odd analogy. Maybe one could make a similar analogy about viruses.
Humans also carry diseases and destroy the landscape and each other. By your logic, we shouldn't care about anyone dying, or try to empathize with anything outside of ourselves. Seems like a sad perspective, IMO.
I am not seeing where you understand other perspectives here
