    The PT Cruiser was a call from the empire's doctor telling it to get its affairs in order.

    Had the misfortune of getting one of these as a rental maybe 10 years ago, I've driven cargo vans that were easier to maneuver.

      That's why it's fascism: the car. Nostalgic for an earlier garbage era and also itself garbage.

        I mean, if that's supposed to be inspired by 40s cars or something, it does an absolute disaster of a job. That looks fucking nothing like classic cars and looks like a caricature of an ugly car.

    No it would be the ford Pinto. Built by a nazi company and emblematic of capital placing profit above lives.

      And Ford and GM, while we're at it:

      What happened to the U.S. businesses that collaborated with fascism? The Rockefeller family's Chase National Bank used its Paris office in Vichy France to help launder German money to facilitate Nazi international trade during the war, and did so with complete impunity. Corporations like DuPont, Ford, General Motors, and ITT owned factories in enemy countries that produced fuel, tanks, and planes that wreaked havoc on Allied forces. After the war, instead of being prosecuted for treason, ITT collected $27 million from the U.S. government for war damages inflicted on its German plants by Allied bombings. General Motors collected over $33 million. Pilots were given instructions not to hit factories in Germany that were owned by U.S. firms. Thus Cologne was almost leveled by Allied bombing but its Ford plant, providing military equipment for the Nazi army, was untouched; indeed, German civilians began using the plant as an air raid shelter.
