Because too many people are frothing at the mouth for violence and don’t have enough sense to realize that very obvious/important point.

- I’d imagine trade-in values for those right now are going to be pretty low.
- Not everyone can afford to do that, especially with car prices likely to rise due to tariffs.
- Interest rates aren’t great if they have to finance the replacement car
- Everyone’s life situation is different. An oversimplified “just do [blank] to satisfy my illogical demands or else you’re a Nazi sympathizer and deserve to have your property vandalized” isn’t practical.
- Don’t fuck with people’s property.

This right here. I agree that such people advocating these positions must be bad actors, but in case there are real people who think they alone hold the moral bar that everyone must clear: “Go fuck yourself.” Everyone has to start somewhere, and alienating those that are still learning is not helping.
Also, who the fuck is going to buy a car that has a much higher than average chance of being vandalised or burnt out?
