Same in Kansas. Was in a car that hit one in the 80s and see them often enough that I had to avoid one that was crossing a busy interstste highway last week.

Deer are the opposite of an edge case in the majority of the US.

I drove through rural Arkansas at sundown once. I've never seen so many deer in my life.

Not really, a good fascist should be always ready to fight for their place in the sun, on all levels, their collective included. There's no rightful domination there, or right per se, but there is fighting and the resulting domination of the strongest. So if you disobey and lose, you have contributed to fascism to the best of your ability. If you disobey and win, you are the most virtuous fascist. Apathy is the worst crime there. It's the "jungle" ideology in some sense.

It would be fine if not for the fact that it doesn't contribute anything to the human, just describes the basic level and how to succeed there, but there are better levels.

Still I think it's important to deeply understand fascism and how it's not all evil, because we must understand why and when it's in demand. It's an ideology of chaotic life and violent evolution, and the demand for it arises when more gracious alternatives erode, and nothing around is certain other than one's will to fight.

Umberto Eco's "Foucault's Pendulum" is a wonderful book deeply exploring fascist aesthetic, by the way.

The issue with fascist followers (an important word) is that it doesn't take anything to pretend to be a fascist, while being a submissive slave in fact.

I actually find it funny how if you remove NAP from anarcho-capitalism, it can become both classical fascism and classical anarchism, with the difference being in what people of these ideologies want from the future, not the rules these ideologies impose.

Drivers in rural areas are taught to hit the brakes and maintain their lane.

Which the Tesla didn't do. It plowed full speed into the deer, which arguably made the collision much much worse than it could have been. I doubt the thing was programmed to maintain speed into a deer. The more likely alternative is that the FSD couldn't tell there was a deer there in the first place.

The problem is not that the deer was hit, a human driver may have done so as well. The actual issue is that the car didn't do anything to avoid hitting it. It didn't even register that the deer was there and, what's even worse, that there was an accident. It just continued on as if nothing happened.

Deer jump out of dark places

that one was just standing there, yo

Deer on the road is an edge case that humans cannot handle well.

If I'm driving at dawn or dusk, when they're moving around in low light I'm extra careful when driving. I'm scanning the treeline, the sides of the road, the median etc because I know there's a decent chance I'll see them and I can slow down in case they make a run across the road. So far I've seen several hundred deer and I haven't hit any of them.

Tesla makes absolutely no provision in this regard.

This whole FSD thing is a massive failure of oversight, no car should be doing self driving without using cameras and radar and Tesla should be forced to refund the ~~suckers~~ customers who paid for this feature.

Damn right. Stomp the brakes and take it to the face.
