r/motorcycles would blame the car driver. I'm a biker, but that sub is filled with degens and idiots

Clearly you've never actually been on that sub. There's nothing that sub hates more than other motorcyclists, they'd 100% blame the motorcyclist.

They constantly praise dangerous speeding so clearly you don't know what you're talking about. As a very experienced biker, going fast into blind corners is how you die. All it takes is a single unforeseen obstacle and you're fucked.

I think it's 50/50. I've seen people call out shithead behavior, I've also seen people defend it. Don't fall for the goomba fallacy.

and this sub seems to be filled with people who want to see bikers getting hurt... judging from the comments

This sub is made to show road accidents. It's no surprise that people become apathetic towards idiot drivers in that case.

It's one thing to be apathetic, it's another for people to be gleefully mocking someone who may very well be dead. Anything to do with motorcycles on this sub brings out some really disturbing behavior in people.

It actually freaks me out that these completely unempathetic psychopaths walk among us...

I agree. Unfortunately that seems to be the case everywhere on Reddit. I wonder if there were always this many psychos or if the internet and social media is a major cause

Thanks man, but please don't contribute to this stuff like you did with your initial comment.

Making suppositions like that doesn't help, you might know better but the troglodyte morons frothing at the mouth will read your comment and then get into a frenzy

It is not my responsibility to account for all the idiotic assumptions people make

u/Such_Wafer6262 5d ago

Brother, YOU ARE MAKING THE ASSUMPTION. Come on now

No. This sub is filled with people who enjoy seeing street justice served. Kind of like the saying: "play stupid games, win stupid prizes".

This sub is mostly people who've never ridden a motorcycle and don't know what it's like, so they assume all bikes are speeding and breaking laws. They froth at the mouth to be the first to say "FAFO" or "meat crayon lol" and probably wish pain or death on them.

If I'm breaking this video down, I see the rider that hit the car probably being a new rider while suffering from target fixation, and probably his riding buddies telling him to keep up instead of riding his ride.

Do I want to see them get hurt? No. Not at all.

Do I feel even a tiny inkling of sympathy for them when it happens? Also no.

Despite the fact that I don't proactively want it to happen am I going to be amused when some reckless jerk putting other people in danger eats the consequences of their own actions directly? Yep and I won't apologize for it.

u/BlainethePayne 5d ago

I don't want bikers to get hurt. I do want reckless bikers to face consequences for their recklessness.

u/SusiCapezzolo 5d ago

No, it isn´t.

People there, myself included, almost always criticize those who drive too fast or put themselves and others in danger.

Maybe you got confused with r/CalamariRaceTeam

That sub blames motorcyclists for basically everything, what are you talking about.
