A picture of a hand holding remote car keys pointed at a white pickup truck. Below that is the text:
In the US, 75% of truck owners tow only once a year or less. Nearly 70% of them go off-road once a year or less. Additionally, 35% of truck owners haul something in their truck beds once a year or less

From the sidebar. If you don’t like it, block the community instead of complaining and typing in full caps with excessive punctuation like some boomer on Facebook.
Jesus fuck, you didn’t have to go and insult me. The sidebar was enough but even then I still don’t understand wtf the point of the sub at all or why it’s constantly recommended to me. :/
I use a buncha caps and punctuation all the time cus im autistic, it’s in all my comments and posts; for me it’s like I’m putting my thoughts as they are on the screen. So if I wanna scream or emphasize somethin then I put it in all caps.
I don’t really like having to block whole ass communities like that, cus what if there IS an interesting post I see from there?? I like just being able to tell Lemmy “Hey, stop showing me this” instead of blocking.
And im not even complaining really I just:
A. dont understand what this post is trying to tell me.
B. what this has to do about cars being bad.
C. Why fuckcars is the only one shown to me and not something else like Anti-child or Anti-work or anti-anything else.
And the sidebars are often useless compared to the actual behavior of the community. Scrolling the comments, it’s just a lotta people going “Yea I know a guy who ALWAYS drives his truck with stuff in it, fukin chump.” and some (Seemingly) sour attitudes towards truck drivers for carrying a buncha stuff in their trucks.
tldr
The TLDR: “I don’t understand the point of this place and since I can’t read, this place sucks.”
Every comment here is “Why do you wanna do that?!” And then it’d explained and they double down or ignore it.
Thanks for the concise translation.
I was made fun of/mocked. When asking FURTHER QUESTIONS you continue to be a dick and insult me. I never fucking doubled down on anything aside from the fact that this some parts community just feels judgmental asf to outsiders.
I wanted to learn MORE about the community, to understand it. The side bar didn’t answer all the questions I had. I didnt come here to fucking attack you or anyone else here. I don’t hate this place either, but it is a fact that some people here, LIKE YOU just aren’t tolerant of others. I came to lemmy to get away from that typa shit.
I never said this place fucking sucked. thanks for putting words in my mouth.

Bye, I don’t wanna deal with someone who barges into a conversation, questions everything and nothing at the same time, and then says people talking about it are too confusing until people take hours explaining it.
Also you can’t get miffed at me for supposedly “Complaining” about the point of the community
Deadass the title is fuckcars. 90% of everyone here is complaining about something jerkass
Its always Anti-“Insert topic” subs that, when I ask why they exist and what’s the point, people immediately insult me instead of either going “Myeh we don’t all just hate on cars here, just specific things like ‘Insert specific things’” or just answering the question. Its always “WELL IF YA DON’T LIKE IT GET OUT!”
Maybe it is the caps, but I never badmouth anyone or anything when I ask, Im just super confused and wanna understand. But I get told to fuck off.
All you’re doing by commenting here is telling the algorithm you like to engage with this community, therefore you will keep seeing it more, and complaining more, thus telling the algorithm you like engaging with the community etc.
I told you to block the community because you don’t enjoy it, that’s all.
You insulted me while saying that. thats why I keep commenting. Not to mention the other assholes that keep doing the same!
You cant give someone decent advice and then straight up mock/insult me and just expect people to be chill with that type of shit. I even said “What if there’s something here I DO actually find interesting” I still got made fun of for it. Regardless the “Algorithm”, it doesn’t do shit ti cater to my interest anyways! I’ve been here for months! And I KEEP getting recommended Linux and programming memes. I dont even program! Thats just all this place keeps offering me!
Again, you keep commenting on these things so you keep getting offered them and you seem to think blocking communities to curate your experience is in some way an insult to you?
I likened you to a group of people on a social media platform doing exactly what you do. You are straight up using verbally offensive insults against me.
I’ve been patient enough with you as it is. I will use the block feature to curate my experience now and rid myself of your nonsense.
This dude is weird.
> Barges into public conversation
> Refuses to read the room
> Asks why would anyone be against this
> Elaborates by insulting people who are just living their lives
> Refuses to leave, says they won.
I’m now imagining someone doing this same thing at a funeral and honestly it’s pretty amusing.
“Why this dude here, and why is everyone else?”
“He… died? And we’re here to mourn?”
“Why would you do that?”
“…Can you leave us alone until you figure it out?”
“WOW YOU’RE ALL RUDE MORONS!”
Wearing a full on clown costume and brightly coloured afro wig to really make the scene complete.
