“Wall of text rationalization”

That’s a great term. They write dozens of inaccurate statements stitched together with their own emotional baggage. What’s the result?

You have no idea where to attack/address/start because their entire wall of text is riddled with false assumptions and straight misinformation.

Never seen one Trump supporter have clear, cogent thoughts.

I do not like people like you who are intelligent enough to be intentionally intellectually dishonest while being extremely malicious underneath.

You fool people for sure. I do not know why you do it, though.

There is no manipulation going on by “Big Tech”. Your fear mongering is unfounded. Pushing this sort of rhetoric is what created the insurrectionist events a few days ago.

$200k for a household is not high income by any measure. That sentence explains your entire perspective in your comment.

E-Class = Poor people

If you consider these cars expensive, that’s your problem.

Driven Benz, BMW, Porsche, Audi, Tesla, Rolls Royce, Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc.

No way in hell is a C-Class Benz worth it's price. Tesla drives way better and is much more fun.

I think it's about TCO, status, reliability and maybe fun-factor.

Nobody buys an Audi or Benz for 'fun-factor'. Especially not when they get AMG or i versions.

Thank you. What you describe is exactly what I've noticed after delving into the car world via rentals.

If you're buying a sedan -- Toyota/Honda/Kia.

If you own a BMW/Audi/Benz, you're not wealthy and you're just signalling to other non-wealthy individuals. It's interesting because most of the BMW/Audi/Benz look terrible and are way cheaper than most expect yet still a terrible, arrogant waste of capital.

Only a few brands don't match this. Tesla and Range Rover. The former for obvious reasons. The latter because no comparable high-end SUV exists.

If you bought a Ford/Chevy, you're asking for reliability issues.

Right - a certain segment of the population is incredibly valuable for exactly this service.

I include myself in your description - love seeing relevant ads. There's a sweet spot there between those with high disposable incomes, high open mindedness and high affinity for novelty.

This population is by far the most attractive consumer for advertisers.

I like this quote:

"I see that there are many young people here; as an old man, a little advice... Life can set us a lot of snares, a lot of bumps, we can fail a thousand times, in life, in love, in the social struggle, but if we search for it we'll have the strength to get up again and start over. The most beautiful thing about the day is that it dawns. There is always a dawn after the night has passed. Don't forget it, kids. The only losers are the ones who stop fighting."

Read your comments and saw this wasn't the first on this theme.

Depending on your status, do you have anything against asking guys/gals to grab lunch?

Sounds weird but honestly, I ask out plenty of girls all the time not to date them but to see if they'd be an interesting friend.

EDIT: I see you're also 21 like myself. Ever tried going to meet ups? Maybe not tech-oriented meetups but hiking, kayaking, boating, etc.
