Comment on I feel like if asbestos was banned today there'd be a huge pro-asbestos movement

I’m personally waiting for the inevitable fight over autonomous vehicles. The only way they truly work to our advantage is if nearly every car is self-driving. I absolutely foresee a “they’re trying to take my Trans-am” resistance, people that will be fighting to the death not to lose the ability to drive their own car.

I’ll be one of those people and so will anyone else with the smallest bit of common sense. Autonomous private vehicles will never be viable or safe within my life time.
Safe autonomous vehicles already exist btw they operate on rails and even those require a driver in case shit goes wrong.
I’m so fucking sick of tech bros trying to make public transport stupider and more complicated in the name of private profits.
