Can we not romanticize american truck culture? Those people's heads are already swollen enough without telling them everyone around them relies on their condescension to help.
Sure, there might be a few decent people out there who have trucks, but they're not the majority of truck owners. They're also more likely to help their friends and family, maybe a friend of a friend, but hardly a stranger.
And if you're viewed as an outsider or unliked? Forget it, you're SOL.
Also, this expectation that everyone "just knows", without being told, is unrealistic. It is real, in that people do expect that. And perhaps most normies do "just know." But the social rejects, the neurodivergents, the new neighbors who just moved to this state, etc.? Life is made far more challenging to these people as a direct result of that expectation that everyone should "just know" without being told.
Yeah fuck Americans! I hate all of them tbh, even the supposed “good” ones. Every single one is a pig and deserves to die. They should really learn to be more tolerant and not to hate people based on one characteristic that they think tells me everything they need to know about a person
Dude, I'm an american myself, and having grown up surrounded by americans I think I can say that it's not always sunshine and rainbows like it's depicted in the post.
The people around me who drive trucks are the biggest assholes for miles. Rolling coal, denying climate change, flying trump flags, shining high beams in your rearview mirror. Pretending this isn't a real pattern and a serious issue isn't going to get you anywhere.
Sure, there are exceptions. Some people who drive trucks are nice people. They usually drive smaller, older, more beat-up and well-used trucks. But then again, lots of assholes drive those too. As for the big, shiny new trucks that never leave the pavement, there's a reason people say they're compensating for something. They're more likely to run over a cyclist than they are to help you move a couch.
