What's wrong with petrolheads/gearheads? Fuck cars but people driving them for fun is arguably the smallest part of the problem

I don't target everyone that enjoys cars in general, mind that, I'm a car enjoyer myself.

I mostly refer to a series of behaviours that some (right-wing) petrolheads seem to have which are against progressive ideas, like different approaches to transportation that go against the idea of car-centric cities or the switch to electric engines in favor of 'muh engine sound'. That's why I specifically target petrolheads, and while I agree that drivers are a lesser problem, let's not forget that drivers are buyers.

But I realize I've done a lot of generalizing saying that so I will refrain from using the phrase again in future posts. My apologies.
