Inhibition is a learned trait. Modesty comes from a long time ago when some people freaked out because they saw a penis or something?! Seriously though, religious people don't like promiscuity and they think hiding our "shame" will make it go away. Fucking idiots.

Always has been. It has been a constant fight for those who believe in free speech and those who don't. Sometimes the believers are ahead, sometimes it's the non believers. Being ahead builds complacency and fosters resentment, ergo the back and forth. It constantly needs to be fought for or it goes away completely. The fight is never ever over.

Yes, the automatic transmission is not solely responsible, but it was a means to an end. How can we get more people in cars? Make it easier to drive! Brilliant. Except now we have this... It's irrational but it's my brain and I can do what I want with it!

Who is gatekeeping?! Just cause I don't feel the same as you doesn't mean you can't do a thing? Technology is great, but it can also be stupid, and dangerous, and misused and by golly, even detrimental.

You don't shoot them. You gather in large mobs and take them out of their houses and burn them or hang them or decapitate them in public. There has to be "due process" by the law of the land, otherwise it's just nutsos with guns killing people. Mob justice is rarely the answer, but in cases like this it's the only thing that will work. You also can't bank on your compromised justice system to punish these people, they built the system so they can't be.

It was a comparable problem, not a comparable affliction, but I hear you. Part of why the world is so fucked up right now, in my opinion, is because we are so easily fixated on the subjects rather than the subject matter and it often derails the actual discussions we need to have. Not saying your wrong, just saying that kind of dissemination has been the bane of democracy lately. At least left leaning politics. They don't have that messaging problem on the right.

Stop pretending like you care about anything. We can see right through you.

Can you guys please try to elect some people that will actually do the job they are voted on to do instead of waste everyone's time and accomplish nothing. Tearing shit down is incredibly easy, building shit up takes decades. You ha e severely fucked yourselves over and destroyed all the work of the past 50-75 years of being a country in the modern world. Y'all are fucked and still talking about the next vote like it even fucking matters anymore. America is fucking gone man, you just don't realize it yet.

The driver can be IDed while driving, but no one else is obligated to provide proof of ID as they are not lawfully nor unlawfully operating a motor vehicle.

I think it's just parked on the side of the road?

Everyone not being paid to do it would tell you it's a bad idea. They break rocks in the substrata with no idea of how it will go or what effects it might have. Awuafers have been poisoned with natural gas, water tables have been ruined and misdirected. When the well is no longer profitable, they "cap" it and move on to greener pastures, letting the remaining gas bleed off into the environment unchecked. There are dozens of problems with fracking, but gas go boom so...

You said something here that is pertinent, but also revealing. We all use technology everyday to make our lives easier, but does it? The automatic transmission cited above allowed anyone with a pulse the ability to get behind the wheel of a car rather than putting in any effort to acquire the skill to operate a motor vehicle. Great for the people who built our car-ciety, we have all suffered for it, including inaccessible essential services w/o one and getting stuck in traffic caused in the most part by people who should never be behind a wheel of a car. Do you want people writing books and creating art that have no business writing books or creating art? Cause we've got that now. Great...
