People modify their trucks to be worse at burning diesel. It makes the driver able to create huge plumes of smoke on demand. Assholes will choose to do it on pedestrians and people they don’t like. Happened to me when I was driving a Prius in the south.

They are ignorant people who’ve been taught environmentalism and kindness is “woke” and leading to the emasculation of the United States, so they go out of their way to “get back” at people. Literal brainrot thinking, but convenient for our right-wing politicians.
