Leftists really should embrace monster trucks. I've been saying this for awhile.

I once had this idea to crowd source buying this giant Lenin head and mounting it to a monster truck frame:

Would be even cooler if you added custom laser eyes and flames shooting out of his nose or something.

    Better yet, the ZIL-E167 was a real Soviet truck.

    Eh, it's all aesthetics.

    "Slamming a cold one into the capital", monster trucks, and the "dudes will see this image and say hell yeah" type of dudebro humor is really just one degree away from early 2000's "epic bacon" style comedy. If you're guy and don't like these things, you pretty much just politely get told you're gay because even innocuous forms of masculinity demand compliance.

    On the other hand, calling it "redneck shit" is just naked classism. While I also don't find a truck with big wheels to be rad, arguing about it is just a platform to be condescending.

    I don't even know why I wrote this out. I was gonna stop reading after I saw "look, he's probably fascist, BUT..."

    In my personal experience, at least some of the performative masculinity dude bros are actually pretty okay because they just want people to have fun and they cant conceive that people have fun in ways different to theirs.

    On the other hand, fun police libs almost always come from a place of wanting to wield a modicum of perceived power over others and are fucking insufferable to be around.

    In my communist utopia, the only cars that still exist outside of necessary work functions are monster trucks. If I can't watch truckasaurus eat a smaller car, what's even the point?

    I went to a monster truck rally with my kids and it was better than any ballgame I've ever been to hands down

    Old lady neighbor got free Monster Jam tickets and gave them to my family when I was a second grader. One of the best memories I have from my childhood. I was obsessed with the Yankees, but Monster Jam was way better than watching the Yankees play

    Fireball isn't for all night, it's for starting the night.

    It's just fun

    I hate normal daily car commuters much more than I hate midnight street racers. Monster trucks very rarely kill pedestrians.

    The only fun you're allowed to have under liberalism is going to see Hamilton and then having brunch after!

    Fireball is the most basic white girl alcohol possible. You want to impress me? Slam gin, tequila, or absinthe in a federal office. If not for how much sugar's ramrodded into that synthetic cinnamon 'whiskey' shit, I could replace my water canteen with it.

    Flying squid is terminally online to the extent that I worry about their health. Look at how many comments they have and how long they're account has existed. I am concerned

    They're ultralib like absurdly vehemently liberal
