A broken clock is right twice a day or whatever. They're a racist POS and shouldn't be celebrated, but they're right and their shitty politics wasn't the point of the others comments and shouldn't be used to brush them aside. They were responses to your position.
In your hypothetical situation where you feel the need for speed and the sole right to the road, have you considered the danger this poses to others? Not only other drivers, but pedestrians and bicyclists too. Have you been in an incident where you've almost been run over while using an overabundance of caution just to cross what is normally a very busy crosswalk? It's happened to me every year and three of them have been extremely close not because I just haphazardly step out into traffick, but because the drivers were distracted, going to fast, tailgating each other, or just didn't give a fuck because they are driving the biggest thing on the road.
Annoying attitude of the poster going the speed limit aside, arguing FOR the right to speed and for others to get out of the way is fundamentally a selfish position and a practice that promotes dangerous behavior on the road. If it's an emergency, call an ambulance. You can't afford to die more than you can't afford to pay ridiculous healthcare costs and that doesn't give you the right to put others in danger.
That selfish thought process, that cars own the road and should be able to do whatever they want, is why people would call you car-brained. If I had my way, the roads would be engineered so you couldn't go above 25 unless on an arterial road or a highway.
