It is absolutely antisemitic. Fiddler on the Roof is about the Jewish culture and has nothing to do with Zionism or Israel.

This would be like protesting against Saudi Arabia actions at an Eid festival.

Yes. But it's not like we're importing humans from other planets.

Is this racism, or are there genuine concerns (they took er jerbs?)

What if we elect Trump and he gets rid of safety standards, could we import it then?

Are we going to completely ignore the absolute insanity of arresting someone for cheating on an exam.

[-] Altofaltception@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

I don't think anyone wants to see that.

Maybe we can get Kushner's laptop.

You'd get killed on the interstate on one of those,

You guys in Illinois are crazy though. I learned very quickly how much that 55 MPH limit is a guideline and not a hard limit.

Speed restrictions.

Kei trucks were designed for use in dense Japanese cities, which is why they also work in European cities. They are nimble but have a low top speed. You're not going 70 mph around a street corner for instance.

It would work in places like NYC for the same reasons, but remember that most of the USA is suburban or rural. You need vehicles that are capable of going fast if you're going to get on a highway.

A possible workaround is to have a separate class for these, like mopeds or scooters, which are road legal but are not highway legal.

I mean the US did their part in bombing civilians over the years. They're considered the "world police" not because they're good, but simply because nobody can challenge them.

Think about how much they got away with before the internet made it possible to scrutinize their activities.

Put that into context of governments seeking to restrict access to information: the US ban on TikTok for instance.
