Date: August 20th, 2026 12:48 PM Author: talented zombie-like pit The decline had already happened by like 2000. From what I can tell, boomers could basically “get laid because they had a nice car” seemingly. Like in the 60s before feminism. This is impossible for us to understand imo. It’s like telling zoomers about house parties.
Also the actual Cars sucked mostly from like 1973 onward except relatively low-volume foreign cars that every millennial thinks are cool which were still largely Small and Slow.
Also ceteris paribus if 2 people make 60k a white person and a mystery meat, the white person — if they don’t spring for a truck — drives a Chevy Cobalt or 2018 RAV4 and the mystery meat drives a BMW X5. URM drift contributes bigly to the loss of prestige. |
