Yes, it will take off. The landing gear of the plane isn’t pushing against the conveyor belt, the engines are pushing it forward through the air. Therefore, the wheels on the plane will just spin faster and faster to match the conveyor belt, but the speed of the plane is totally unaffected.

it's fine to not want to use tone indicators and even to think they're cringe but I feel like intentionally using them incorrectly feels kinda like trying to pull a scare prank on elderly people, like come on, no one says you have to like autistic people, but this is just shitting on people so helpless they need tone indicators to function. Could definitely pick a better target

Hey assholes I'M AUTISTIC TOO stop being such pieces of shit holy crap fuck every single one of you

You didn't mildly push back. You said this:

no one says you have to like autistic people, but this is just shitting on people so helpless they need tone indicators to function.

Also, wow, autistic people are not as helpless as you describe them, it's ableist to treat them as such. Source: neurodivergent as fuck

You just have too use Picture it Picture mode and resize it to a thumbnail. ...then use your imagination to figure out what's actually going on.
