RogBFight climate change? deflate SUV tires
"So here's what we do: Wedge gravel in the tire valves, leaflet the SUV to let them know the tires are flat and why it was done, and walk away.
It's that simple. If we organize, we can hit enough SUVs in particular neighborhoods to spark reporting and spread the metameme."

sourdough44Likely only a few zealots in a greenie area would attempt. The article seems more for regular people to get their dander up.
Nowhere I go would I ever expect such foolishness.

TirodIt would seem the most prone areas this might happen are large university campuses or an occasional mall. One wonders how Amazon management would react.
BTW, whats the cost of refilling tires inflated with nitrogen? This might cross over into a felony in some areas.

Jimbo JonesHard to take idiocy like this seriously, but if some poor libtard millennial attempts this, they might find that they themselves will get deflated.

Don't forget to look at the ads. All the ads. Click those too.
A little retail therapy will help you cope with all those strong emotions they're manipulating you into generating.
And leave an angry comment at the bottom of the articles so they know it's working.

architectYes, undoubtedly click bait. However, I'm sure that there are some yutes out there who will take it seriously, and actually implement "the plan." Now where can I buy a fake EV sticker?

slosigIs it wrong that my first thought was, “Oh goody, I can’t wait for the article (with pictures like the Ventura County burglar the other day) about the first time some idiot who “answers the call” gets caught letting air out of the wrong SUV tires.”
Of course, my second thought was what ever happened to “You do you, Boo.”? I’d think that President Potato’s impact on gas prices would do more to get rid of SUV than any number of idiots letting air out of tires…

If your model car has an EV or some sort of alternative fuel vehicle you can just order the OEM badge through a dealer, on ebay or some other third party auto parts site like Rock Auto.
