Comments sections. Where nuance goes to die. All context is flattened and your views must be expressed as black or white lest you get branded as having the wrong opinion.

Better nuance dies than innocent bystanders as the drunk driver plows into people.

Amen, Lemmy is in the starting stages of how reddit went my brother. It's inherent to the format

I don't think alcoholics should be allowed to drive, is that too much to ask?

Driving is a privilege, not a right, and the roads are already dangerous enough as they are.

I understand the dynamics in the US are what they are regarding cars and the lack of public transportation or bicycle infrastructure, but I don't believe the avoidable deaths are a worthy trade off. Change needs to start somewhere, and excusing the deaths for some artificially created issue is not acceptable.
