    So many pro car sentiments in fuck cars. What is this nonsense? We dont need robo drivers before we have human centric cities.

      My theory is that due to a relative lack of content a lot of Lemmy users browse the all feed.

        Its just nuts.
        “I have to go to the train station”
        “My car goes right to my house”

        Yes, this is what shit is like when society is built around cars and not you, a human being.

      Ha! I actually left reddit 14 months ago because I thought users of /r/fuckcars were too much pro cars. Like, there was a post of a dude with a giant pickup truck driving in a snow storm saying that if there were trains, he’d use it, bit now he’s “stuck” using a pickup truck to drive between two cities during a snow storm because “he had bo other choice”. And that crap was upvoted and defended.

      Like, if I made comments that were too much ‘fuck cars!’ in /r/fuckcars, I would be told that some people would just loooooove to use public transit but there’s none where they live so they really don’t like it but don’t have any other choice than using a car that they “hate” but don’t want to give up.

      Lots of users of a sub against cars that couldn’t walk nor bike to save their lives. They want bus, trains… taxis or cars… but walking and cycling? No. AmEriCa iS BiG aNd RuRal So YoU woULdN’t uNdErStAnD! Yet I live in an even “emptier” and bigger country…

      They wanna “get rid” of their cars but as soon as someone proposes to walk a bit, or bike somewhere, they are like “but what about robotaxis?!” FFS!
