Gee, I wonder what causes congestion in high speed lanes and roads? Too many fucking cars at the same time? Nah, it must be some communist subversion

I'd say he's right. In a way. Cars don't create congestion, they are congestion.

Fine. And with this realisation let's end the phrase "I'm stuck in traffic". Cars aren't stuck in traffic, they are traffic.

Every bike on the road is one less car.

Other than that this guy seriously needs to get out into the fresh air and spend sometime around people (if it is a guy, it's overwhelmingly most likely a bot and so a genuinely harmful thing to engage with, get angry about, republish here, or do anything with other than ignore).

Social media is just getting worse, and although there is much to like about defederation, a lot of the content here is not healthy.

Being independent and getting to use your bike is communist now

Who cars what science says, I love my penis-size-compensating huge truck, so I want more and faster lanes!

Well, mr dumbfuck, why don't you go to North Korea, they have 5 lane highways and only 3 cars a day driving them. Oh wait, true communists have no traffic jams? What?

Fix and expand the US public transportation system. Building infrastructure for automobiles is fucking backwards.
