The level of irony in this video is almost overwhelming.
"Don't tell me what I should like but I am going to tell you what you should think and do about the things you don't like" Because sombody doesn't like something it does not mean for one second they hate it either. As sort of a reverse philosophy people need to take the chip off their shoulder and be able to be a grown up when sombody says something they don't like about their car. The automatic assumption that everybody is hating on it if they make any sort of negative comment is frequently the larger source of conflict than the original statement. It has been my experience that the guys running around screaming "you are all haters" are the. Biggest haters of th group.

I knew this video was garbage the second I saw it a few weeks ago. These people are doing everything they can to be seen as thin skinned fools. Seriously what the hell is wrong with people today? If you cannot take criticism well and have no sense of humor you are a horrible human being in every possible way.

I went recently in a local dyno day. Not to dyno my car, but to install a set of coilovers. The garage owner was known to me and although it was a very busy day, he offered to make the installation. So, I watched a dozen of different cars and a range of results from 220 to 750 whp. Did I hate these cars because they were stronger or better? Nope, in fact I respected them and respected the garage owner that had all these customers. Many other owners did the same for my car, because they knew what it is all about and what it is not.
What I don't like is people doing negative criticism just for this. I've seen people even chasing other members in forums just to post negative comments to whatever the others will say. Some of them are doing negative criticism even to their own cars, because it is an entry level sports car. It is like hating themselves or their lives. It is so sad that people can't get over it. This is also one of the reasons some members stop joining the forums. |

Most of the people who get "hated on" do it to themselves.
Either with idiotic mods, a lack of knowledge but presenting themselves as knowledgeable or a combination of both. The kind of person who would shell out big bucks for a throttle body and a new header, but not tune specifically for them. |

People can totally dislike something about their own car and publicly state it. I totally rail to see how that is "hating on themselves". I have frequently been accused of "chasing" individuals around. It is pure paranoia and self righteousness that make them think that. If crap is posted in ten threads then I will respond in ten threads. If sombody thinks every answer I give is somehow angry or negative just because it isn't what they want to hear that is their problem not mine. I had one guy PMing me daily to say "I hope you die soon" because I had the audacity to say I didn't think a Mazda engine would be an upgrade in an FRS. That one simple statement had him calling me the biggest hater ever just because I didn't smile, nod and hand him a participant trophy. If people come here and expect nothing but support and praise they are going to be disappointed. When they lash out becuas in their own twisted anger they see nothing but anger in everybody else then we are better off without them anyway. Quote:

I didn't watch it but I bet at least one person in that video wears a flat brim cap and vape.
