      I mean it’s a trolley, only extremist socialists and people who understand mass transit is way more sensible than cars use those so I think that alone qualifies it as a target to the FBI/CIA.

      I mean ok maybe some people die who just like commuting to work without the massive headache of maintaining and driving a car, but we can’t let those people stand in the way of progress.

          I press the button to launch missile at somebody on the other side of the planet who I know nothing about and have just decided to kill because my boss and their boss and their boss all say this is existentially important to the survival of western democracy.

          Satisfied I step out of the shipping crate into the barren Nevada sun.

          Yes I said yes I will Yes.
