i hate tow companies with an utter and burning passion. one time i had a guy parked in the spot i paid for, parked in a spot next to it, then the tow company came and stole my car. the spots next to mine were a different property apparently, and the fucking tow company kept a camera aimed at this backyard lot so they could swoop in and steal any car that wasn't paying. i had to get a friend to drive me outside of town to the tow company so i could pay a couple hundred dollars to get my fucking car back. i told the tow company guy behind the counter that he was going to hell.

when my car got stolen when I was young was when I realized the system was not there to protect working class people and that police officers were less than useless to poor people like me. Having to pay to get your own stolen car back is absolute bullshit.
I suspect they probably don't want to be called dude
Couldn't afford to get my car out of the impound lot during the we're all in this together part of the COVID lockdowns, shit sucks I'm sorry comrade
Can’t be explicit here but just wanna say if we ever end up thoroughly in the cool zone I have a couple of ideas of what I’d do to tow truck companies/yards.
My former roommate would yell at tow truckers and call them class traitors every chance he got. He used to go advocate for specific choice material actions that should be taken against them in minecraft
The principle is that insurance covers this cost.
The reality is that tow companies rip people off.
america wants you to die and fines you for existing. car stolen? impound lot fee. shot in a walmart but survived? medical debt.
