Americans: because of the system and place I was born into, the only place I can get privacy to express myself is in my car.
You: BWAHAHA AMERICANS ARE SO LOUD THEY CAN'T RECORD IN PUBLIC BUT THEY SHOULD ANYWAY YOU DON'T HAVE THIRD SPACES BUT THAT'S YOUR FAULT SOMEHOW CARBRAIN CARBRAIN CARBRAIN
Jfc you sound judgemental and pretentious. I think we need to do stuff to eliminate cars and stuff but if someone even doing anything related to cars makes you go this rabid maybe take a step back.
Yeah, I hate driving, but it just sucks that this comm is more interested in insulting me for needing a car than helping me avoid the thing I hate. I sold my car last year... and now I have to borrow a car to get to therapy each week because a ten minute drive is an hour away on the bus, and that bus only comes by once every four hours. Cycling is not an option because it's a truck route and I've already been run off the road once on a bike.
I really want to love this community, but it's pretty clear that the general opinion is that I don't deserve transit because my government isn't listening to me. Like, holy shit, if you want to attend the public opinion meetings at my transit authority, they'll send a car to pick you up because it's not serviced by bus, and that's better than most of the US. But I'm the carbrain when I complain about how unusable transit is.
What the fuck are you talking about?
Pretty much everyone here wants a less car centric society.
All they say is don't be a dick to people who (have to) use one.
The filming in Restaurants in a whole other can of worms in which many like me say no I don't want a tape rolling nearby while i eat.
I think you responded to the wrong comment
This is the most American response ever.
Seriously, you might need to take a step back and touch grass if that's how you respond to things, I'm kind of worried about your mental state
Your responses has been pretty judgemental. You don't need to be an American to see that.
