The toxic attitude you are talking about: “maybe don’t do that unless you really have no choice.”
You really aren’t seeing this from both sides are you? That’s not the toxic attitude I’m talking about and you damn well know it. I’ve got people here telling me I’m literally killing people for driving a truck, while shockingly giving other vehicles like sportscars and planes a pass.
It’s hypocritical at the least and snide comments like “But OK you do you” is just simply unhelpful and doesn’t solve anything.
I hope you do some self-reflecting and ask yourself, ‘why am I so obsessed with telling people how to live their lives’.
It’s not about how other people live their lives, it’s about how their selfish actions harm me and my loved ones. If trucks were as harmless as you seem to think, no one would care. But people are literally dying. I’ve had several friends and family subjected to vehicular violence, and a few near misses myself. It probably won’t be the last time either. So yes, we are a bit emotional about it. If people don’t like being shamed, then they need to fix the problem, not whine about how mean we are for standing up for the community.
Anyway I can see this is going nowhere. I think everyone could use a little more self-reflection, so I hope you take your own advice to heart.

The toxic attitude I’m taking about: “I have a right to endanger and/or kill people for my own convenience and status symbol.”
The toxic attitude you are talking about: “maybe don’t do that unless you really have no choice.”
But OK you do you. Hopefully the legal system will provide a remedy to this system since people aren’t willing to be considerate on their own.
