    Well cars are polluting the planet, I thought we had a right to breathe? Cars cause unsafe environments, and I’d like the freedom for walking and biking. Cars are loud and obnoxious, I need the right to sleep.

    We are working in this community with the shared belief that cars are creating a less human environment. I understand that driving is your right, that’s completely okay. I’m going to recommend not driving to places within walking or biking distance, and to avoid idling as much, for a realistic step in the right direction.

    Obviously, banning cars altogether isn’t achievable. It is definitely not political. If you’re coming in here with a closed mindset, I’d recommend avoiding engagement with other posts in !fuckcars.

    Anyways, I hope you have a great day, make the choices you feel are right.

        Thanks for explaining. While I am way against cars, I don’t see another alternative in that situation. I think I got the poor image of you from your original comment and your user. I’d just recommend getting a car with better efficiency or a hybrid maybe.

        Also how did owning a car become political?

        Lol anyways have a good one

              Wow, what a jerk face.

              Jokes aside, the solution for him is to get a car with better efficiency and to drive less. Maybe make things less political and religious. Yes, fuck cars, but I’ve lived away from everything before, and driving is basically the only solution for commutes, unfortunately. Maybe getting an EV or hybrid would’ve helped the solution.

          The solution is not trying to live like a fucking feudal lord on his fucking plantation and expecting everyone else to pay to clean up the mess he makes driving 4 hours 6 times a week just to get fucking groceries.
