Big heavy pedestrian-killing trucks are just one facet among many of popularizing selfish, oafish, violent, thoughtless individualism as a culture underlying political beliefs that otherwise lack a connection to culture. Anti-vaxx, and other quack medicine is another such phenomenon. You only need to consider the 12 lives lost for every life preserved to see how shortsighted this is: unless you plan to live in your giant truck 24/7, you could be one of those 12. It's disturbing to see comments that celebrate and excuse wallowing in that subculture.
