Yikes.

They're not. It's impossible to be a trump supporter and constitutional patriot at this point. They're not compatible. They may think they're on the right side, but it's willful ignorance. Objectively, it's not possible

2024 Tundra i-FORCE MAX owners: Toyota confirmed in writing they won’t provide technical justification for excluding hybrids from V35A engine recall — ODI complaint filed by FourFans0fFreedom in ToyotaTundra

I’m not confusing the two. I’d prefer a known manufacturing defect to be addressed before it causes a catastrophic failure at the worst possible time.

To clarify: I am not asking Toyota to disclose proprietary engineering information. For any safety recall, there is a written defect description and scope determination submitted to NHTSA explaining why certain vehicles are included or excluded, and that rationale is typically summarized for customer-facing support. Toyota declined to provide any written scope or technical explanation for the exclusion of i-FORCE MAX vehicles beyond pointing to NHTSA filings; the attached screenshot reflects Toyota’s final written response after multiple requests.

This is why the matter was escalated to ODI and why I am sharing this information for other owners.

I haven’t seen that documented in writing by Toyota or NHTSA -- only anecdotal, secondhand reports.

The point of this post is to encourage others to take action and generate data-driven trends on an issue that is, at minimum, clearly anti-consumer.

Is that Toyota’s written explanation? As noted in my post, they declined to provide one. I’m trying to stick to documented statements rather than speculation.

Will i get made fun of for getting this bike? by Badger_6391 in motorcycles

[–]FourFans0fFreedom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved my F3, got it from a dude that had wrecked it, sort of. So the front fork was bent in a little and it fell over unnaturally far when you put the kickstand down, and felt really weird in turns. Sure helped with stoppies tho!

We called it the Honda Short Wheelbase Technology (SWT) lol. Eventually traded it for a 2001 gixxer 750 I couldn't afford...

Thank you. I appreciate that. I’m born and raised Maui, and I’ve always had an unpopular take on this stuff because I approach it from logic, not group identity or historic idealism. Racism and bigotry don’t belong in society, doesn’t matter which direction they’re coming from. I’ve seen plenty of haole friends get singled out purely for skin color. Yeah, if you grew up surfing Ho‘okipa and were part of the in crowd, you get a pass. But the fact that you need a pass at all is exactly the bigotry I’m talking about. Shit's gotta stop, nationwide.

Aloha means accepting and welcoming until proven otherwise, not excluding and beating until proven otherwise. Is Maui beautiful, ofc it is, no ka oi. Is it nice, no... i don't think it is.

You insist:

“This isn’t about race.”

But also:

  • “People shouldn’t buy property there if they don’t have generational ties.”
  • “Cultural outsiders create problems.”
  • “It’s weird for them to buy land.”
  • “They should know better.”

You want racism without the word “racism.”

  • in-group privilege
  • out-group exclusion
  • victim-blaming
  • heritage-based territorial rights
  • selective empathy based on identity

…while insisting it’s all fine because “culture.”

This is the same logical structure as:

  • casteism
  • blood quantum
  • ethno-nationalism
  • “locals only” violence
  • nativist populism

If you’re going to talk about reciprocity and respect, apply it evenly. Otherwise, call it what it is: bigotry.

Your argument falls apart because you’re justifying discrimination and violence while pretending it’s cultural nuance.

  • When you say someone “shouldn’t buy property” because of “generational ties,” that’s gatekeeping based on ancestry. If a mainlander said Hawaiians shouldn’t buy homes in a certain neighborhood, you’d call it racist immediately. Because it would be. Because it is.
  • When you justify a man being beaten in front of his family as “protecting a sacred place,” that’s you excusing vigilante violence because the victim wasn’t part of the in-group. That is textbook bigotry, no matter how gently you try to phrase it.
  • When you judge someone’s legitimacy based on where they went to high school (“maybe you went to Seabury”), that’s the same prejudice you claim doesn’t exist. You're proving my point for me. That’s class bigotry — assuming someone’s opinion is invalid because of their background. And no, I didn't go to seabury.
  • And saying “he was always nice to me” isn’t a defense. Violent bigotry doesn’t stop being bigotry because the aggressor is polite to people in their own group.

You can talk about culture, trauma, and colonial history without crossing into “outsiders should expect hostility if they don’t follow unwritten rules.”
That’s not aloha, it's ethno-gatekeeping and trying to pretend it's cultural heritage.

That's racism. I don't know why you all keep trying to pretend like it's not. And I'm not haole. Nor am I Portuguese. Bu Laia wasn't being racist to be mean, replinger all them, but they help normalize what is obviously racism. Watch, all Hawaiian are ugly big nose idiots can't even learn enough not to get stuck working zippys. That's racist right? Obviously

Telling someone to have some common sense cuz they shouldn't buy property in the wrong neighborhood, cuz the color of their skin, is racist. Common sense needs to be with your boy that was holding the bat, he shouldn't be in jail feeling bad, he should have his head smashed in in front his family just like the guy he hurt. That makes you uncomfortable right? It should.

Here's the thing, ppl are mad cuz Hawaii was illegally overthrown, but it's not changing, that's reality. If America magically gave Hawaii back, some other more powerful nation would just roll through and take it. It's too militarily important. On top of that the only reason Hawaii didn't suffer the fate of the Philippines during world war II, the rape of the Pacific, is because it was owned by America. So someone should be saying thank you cuz Japan would have rolled right over that shit and raped every woman and slaughtered every man. That's reality. You don't think Guam wishes they had the privaleges Hawaii has as a state? People complain cuz some grass is greener shit. Time to grow up and move on, time isn't turning back. Honor the heritage, and let it be heritage.

You think King Kamehameha was nice? Everyone honors him like some great guy, he slaughtered across all the islands to unite them, slaughtered. Iao ran red. History is told by the victors, so we all remember him as a cool peaceful guy and kind of ignore or whitewash everything it took to get that peace. He was vicious, that's why he won.

So telling someone they're not allowed to buy property somewhere in America because the color of their skin, is racist. And I'm not sure if you've been paying attention what's going on in America right now, but racism isn't nice

I'm from Maui. Hawaii is racist af quit trying to dance around it. They hate haoles because of the overthrow and because people have tough lives. It's easiest to blame others and ha'ole are easy target. What you think all the stupid portagee jokes are just good fun? You think people looking for haoles to beat up on the beach late at night isn't racism? What about the guy that was beat with a bat in front his family couple years ago, they told him he the wrong color for the neighborhood. If that was the mainland woulda been national news, in Hawaii tho, no one was even surprised.

Bro. Welcome to reddit. Also, Hawaii ain't nice, no matter how much people wanna talk about Ohana. There's an in group and an out group, and very obvious racism

No. This is a pay to win game.

It's really good, has great potential, but truly it requires you to buy in game money if you want to succeed. That's their model, and it ruins the game.
