@futurebird @perigrin @LilHulkQ At least the restaurant will continue to stand as long as there is one peg solitaire board to be had within.

@alter_kaker @liferstate This logo is being pushed as a story about "conservatives are mad about it" (are they really? Hm.) and to conservatives as "the left did this?" (No.)This isn't politically aligned. It's corporate, soulless. You can get a car in any color you like as long as it is gray. Every apartment has white walls. It's a design trend driven by sanding down the texture of everything so it can be monetized. The old logo is brimming with *diversity* and character.

@alter_kaker @liferstate Are "conservatives" angry? Or are they just being told to be be angry about something that is objectively annoying?

@alter_kaker @liferstate It's odd to me that this is surfacing in media as "conservative" when I think it's much more popular than that. And I first encountered annoyed essays and rants about this design trend in VERY left wing circles where everyone said "yes, capitalism is ugly again"Not "cars have gone woke because they are gray" Frankly I don't even get how the logic on that could work. How is having less uniqueness ... "woke" ? Isn't it the other way around?

@michaelgemar @alter_kaker @liferstate I can't stand it. It looks like a bank that does predatory lending.

@Chigaze @michaelgemar @alter_kaker @liferstate Why not just make an alternate smaller logo with just the barrel? Maybe they used AI to make this. It looks like something AI would make.

@futurebird @alter_kaker @liferstate you can still get a red car, except that you have to buy the most expensive model to have that choice. Having a non-grey car is now a demonstration of status, rather than aesthetic choice.

@rafial If I could drive and if I needed a car ... which I don't, I'd want a nice dark orange one.

@futurebird I assume that anything they don't like is "woke" by definition.

@stevegis_ssg It's such a self own. If you aren't woke it means you are easily tricked. You're a dupe. Useful for being clueless. A sucker. What is the opposite of "woke" ... it's being asleep.

@alter_kaker @liferstate I'm proceeding from now on with the assumption that any news story "conservatives/liberals are mad about (minor thing)" is probably nonsense based on a few dozen tweets and it may or may not have any real relevance. Find a new framing device.

@futurebird @alter_kaker @liferstate In Germany, some politicians like to say that there is commotion in the social networks, when they would like it to be true. There used to be a meme about it. I'm not sure about their personal Facebook groups though - I'm not on there.

@futurebird @alter_kaker @liferstate I spoke to a mechanic in the early 2000s when I had a red 1991 Nissan. He said that red car paint faded the fastest. I don't think this is the reason for the trend, as Australian UV intensity is uniquely stronger than most places on Earth. It's notable that my car was imported and the paint probably wasn't manufactured for Australian conditions.Likewise, paint manufacturers could if they wanted probably improve UV stabilisation for intense colour car paint.

@alter_kaker I think some media miss the cycle of "liberals are mad about this silly thing" and they are trying to recreate it. To some degree it's funny to do such stories about conservatives but it's also just an annoying way to frame politics. It's boring. It's possible to talk about small issues about design and advertising without becoming ... crazy. These things do matter. Not as much as other issues, but part of the framing feel like "how dare you analyze anything!"
