While were all laughing at these people, we must take them seriously. Ignorance spreads very fast. Especially when amplified by rags like Slate. People who think theyre smart will begin asking this question rhetorically.
It’s the same thing as the people who know very little about firearms, deciding the laws around them. It’s funny, but the influence a lot of people have is really concerning
You’re completely right there. But that ends when one who doesn’t know what they are talking about outright lies to get others scared & worked up about something they don’t understand.l
Once you read a “journalists’/writer’s” articles about something you know a little about, through say a hobby, you realize how ignorant and off the mark they often are. Now make the topic of the article about something you really know about and you might get depressed about the stupid things they say.

almost like it’s got an 8 speed transmission

You don’t have to know a lot about cars to know that no one needs a high capacity assault 8 speed transmission.
Even worse, most of them are fully automatic.
But does it have a suspension thing that goes up?
No, but it does have a 800 cylinder horsepower motor.
Wow, that sounds like it would be as heavy as 10 Boxes you would move with.
Slate, the Faux News version for idiots
