I understand completely they are two different things and does not break TOS. However let me also say that many tuners and enthusiast believe that a vehicle is also an extension of them-self. Some see the car as a blank canvas, and project their own sense of beauty onto the car. This does not escape engineering minded individuals who build their car for function. Also a personal projection of who they are.
When you start to describe someones car in an ill manner, its not surprising that they would take it as a personal attack. Even more so for one who is in love..or attached to their car.
When you start to describe someones beliefs in an ill manner, like a car culture or even religion, politics, ect..they will take it as a personal attack. Again amplified to how attached they are to the ideals.
Whichever the justification is wrong or right. Just be aware of this psychological element before directing any sort of hate towards something.

that being said
majority of hella-flush guys are retarded
