    The point I was snarkily trying to make is that lining up tanks and trucks is a nonsense comparison, any point such a comparison attempts to make is based entirely on a knee jerk emotional reaction, one worthy of r/circlejerk

    Even comparing kinetic energy of different vehicles is pretty silly, tanks were never designed for nor get used as battering rams, they’re a mobile armored gun meant to shoot shit far away. The typical truck on the road today is meant to give suburban dads a delusional sense of masculinity, to the point of sacrificing near vehicle visibility.

    One was designed to kill people far away, one kills people nearby due to operator negligence
