    I mean… Can’t you say that for basically every form of entertainment that costs money, when you’re personally not invested? For example, how are all the marvel movies not a boring and gruesome display of misused wealth?

      I personally find marvel movies boring, and a misuse of wealth, but marvel films aren’t boring in the same way that cars going around in a circle is boring, and they’re not gruesome in the way that eagerly waiting to see real people injured is gruesome.

        Tell me you don’t know a single thing about F1 without telling me you don’t know a single thing about F1.

        That’s not really what motorsports are. Anything can sound boring based on how you describe it. And no one is eagerly waiting for crashes, that’s an absurd assertion.

        So true. Stupid moving pictures don’t show anything imagination can’t do cheaper, easier, and more realistically. Such a dumb waste of people’s own resources that they would otherwise hoard and never use, depriving society of the value and thus starving people of resources. They should just sit in their high castles and ivory towers enjoying their wealth to themselves. Fuck other people. Fuck letting them have fun.

        Motorsport isn’t about waiting to see injury. Vast amounts of technology go into preventing injuries. Motorsport isn’t just cars going in a circle either. It seems you maybe aren’t familiar.
