US “journalism” since the Reagan and bush sr. administrations both vetoed attempts to legislate the fairness in media doctrine have become blatant capitalist propaganda. Of course the west is going to condemn any rebel group that aims to re appropriate resources stolen from the people by repressive oligarchs like the saudi’s and other nations complicit in the western exploitation of looted third world resources for pennies on the dollar in the name of maximizing corporate profits. Im pretty sure the british said some nasty things after the boston tea party too. Rebels are always looked at as terrorists to those in power who commit war crimes with impunity. Those with the money who own the media dictate the narrative.

Because zionist central bankers own our politicians through Aipac snd CUFI donations. The houthi are waging against the zionist state of israel to free the Palestinian people under oppressive occupation and genocide funded by our tax dollars
Their power trains. Engines are very important and when you cut costs in manufacturing it lowers the quality and the standards of quality on crucial parts of the engine. Hyundai had a class action lawsuit that involved about a dozen different vehicle models over a 15 year period where due to a casting flaw in the engine block it was common for the engines to consume/burn oil even with exceptional maintenance and proper oil change intervals of 3000 miles and this resulted in the crank case being starved of oil and when the crankshaft doesnt have enough oil to build pressure and send it through the valleys built into the block and cylinder head and drip back down through the valves and adequately lubricate all those running parts then the rod bearings which are thin slivers of metal between the crank shaft and the connecting rods which connect to the piston they end up getting small pieces of metal between them which scratches these bearings and loosens them and creates a very loud knocking sound that will now be permanent even if you were to top new oil into the engine immediately once it starts knocking from the bottom end the engine is cooked. Go to any junk yard and you will find many hyundais that were effected by this issue (that hyundai literally attempted to sweep under the rug hoping it would go away without doing anything to resolve the issue because it would have been to expensive to redesign these engines techs were being instructed by hyundai to tell owners of their vehicles that burning 2 or 3 quarts of oil every 1000 miles was “within specifications” it was pretty damn absurd) in greater numbers than any other engine subvarients of other manufacturers. It gave hyundai/kia/genesis a really bad name in the automotive industry for years and that mistrust and dislike of Hyundai as a brand still persists today.
Granted electric cars are an entirely different animal i would still much rather spend my money on a brand that has shown a commitment to producing a quality product that lasts. One thing toyota does right is they assume people will neglect to maintain their vehicles so they over engineer their vehicles so that they will last longer under extreme operating conditions than they should. This is why it is so common to see toyotas from the 90’s and early 00’s still on the road today. Even if a toyota has some oil consumption issues As long as you keep toping the oil off it won’t be an issue. And when i say oil consumption issues i mean on a 30+ year old engine with 200-300 or more miles on it maybe burning one quart every 2000/3000 miles but no more than one quart per 1000 miles. Anything beyond 1 quart per 1000 miles is ridiculous and usually a symptom of a bad oil leak or sludged piston rings and means you need an engine rebuild or you can try an engine flush. (bG fluids engine restorstion flush kit is $350 for the kit but it works and is quite amazing from what i have seem) there are cheaper enfine flush products. One thing you can do is just mix 20% marvel mystery oil into each oil change untill you notice a reduction in oil consumption but with tbe hyundai thing this wouldn't fix the underlying issue which was caused by a poorly manufactured engine block.
I have this theory that the world of politics is super dark. Like as dark as many people called “conspiracy theorists” by politicians as a means to silence and discredit them have claimed it to be. Like house of cards but exponentially or even logarithmically worse.
For instance i think the reason Bernie sanders acquiesced to the democrat party and the clinton and biden campaigns both times he ran for office is that he was probably threatened. And i think fetterman was probably threatened as well and back when he had a spine he probably resisted these threats and then he was poisoned in a way that induced a stroke and now the only thing he can do is to do as he is told or they will kill him. I mean this isnt a get out of jail free card for fetterman, fuck him if this extreme speculation on my end happens to be close to the mark at all. Anyone who is on the receiving end of any strong arming like that should definitely do everything they can to expose such behavior.
But remember madison cawthorne? Yeah the guy is a right wing dipshit but i 100% believe him when he said the senate is full of drug fueled orgies. And i think thats the least of it. These people are so drunk on power and consider themselves above the law and not just them but the wall street military and prison industry profiteers that are calling the shots they very likely legitimately believe they can get away with anything including murder, black mail etc. i mean epstien was definitely running a kompromat farm (and it wasnt the furst there was that daycare scandal in the 80’s thst was also part of the satanic panic hysteria but there was a guybinvolved who was tied to powerful banks and all the judges involved ended up getting promoted to throw the case) likely for the highest bidder but mossad was definitely one of the top clients. and even after the public made a stink about it the first time they thought a quick slap on the wrist and quick first class minimum security prison stint with 72 hours weekly work release that involved more teenage massages would be sufficient to show the public he was punished and we were over reacting. Then when it got serious the second time trump literally had him murdered and made it look like a sewer slide. Our representatives are pretty much living in a world thst operates like organized crime and very few have the spine to stand up against it but even those that do end up bending the knee afterwards and the only thing that explains why is there are some very dark things happening behind the curtain.
Ive been yelling fuck elon musk at people in tesla vehicles since way before it was cool!!
Mmore proof the neo liberal democratic party is a controlled opposition party who bows to the will of the same Wall Street military and prison industry profiteers that guide the policies of the right. Trump is going to be handed another 4 years after they repeal the 22nd amendment. this country is a fascist hellscape
They are still leaps and bounds better than other manufacturers. 3 of the 4 major Japanese manufacturers put out quality. Nissan used to a while back but really lost their way. Despite the implied monopolization aspects I was excited when i heard honda was going to acquire nissan but then disappointed to hear that merger fell through.
Theyre not too bad. Japanese manufacturing standards are pretty exceptional. Its a shame that honda isnt buying nissan after all, they are the one outlier.
Amen. Thats why i have an rx330. If you want fuel efficiency they make plenty of hybrid drive trains. The first prius came out in like 2000 they sure have come a long way with that tech.
Id rather have a 15-20 year old toyota with 100k miles on the odometer than a brand new Hyundai.
Toyota makes electric cars and also hydrogen cars. But really EV’s arent all that great for the environment. Lithium mining is pretty awful not to mention super exploitative. And there is this bottleneck of liFePo battery production that we and the industry at large seem to be ignoring. Currenty less than 8% of the amount of new vehicles sold annually on the planet are EV so we would need to increase the supply by at least 1250% plus all the other industries that rely on lithium batteries like cordless power tools, batteries and many other consumer electronics. So likely we would need to increase production by 2000% and thats a conservative estimate and then we would need to repeat this year after year after year. This us not going to be good for the environment regardless the increase in sustainability compared to ICE vehicles. We need to develop solar tech beyond what it is. Look at tje german auto manufacturer Sono who makes a solar ev that seems pretty promising for a technology in its infancy. Also we need to really take notes from toyota because manufacturing cars in the way that American automotive manufacturers have normalized, disposable planned obsolescence vehicles made to break down so that consumers will have to buy a mew one or pay for hours and hours of expensive labor, is just not sustainable. Toyota at least puts out vehicles that mostly Will still be on the roads 3 decades or more after their first purchase. When most other manufacturers are making vehicles that are pretty much crushed and sold for scrap after 100,000 miles or 10 years. So besides the technology itself the current model of consumer usage and disposal is not sustainable
Ephebophilia, ephie for short🤣💀😵💫
