Every attempt to fix this is met with boomers screaming about ruining the unique character of the neighborhood.
The leaded gas made them easier to brainwash.
/c/fuck_cars
this is a certified r/urbanhell moment
r/suburbanhell?
Sad how car citric our cities have become. But even worse was in Yellowstone and you can’t get anywhere without a car and traffic backs up and you stuck while everyone sitting in their running cars spraying the shitty fumes in the air.
Where is my YUROP, with memes that were a bit to precise for me sometimes to understand
Land Value Tax would fix this
Removing mandatory parking spaces would also help.
Yeah no, European tech wages are garbage. I also love cars, we have big open roads here.
I am a bit jealous of the autobahn though.
It’s odd to see people hate cars. How you can have no interest in driving or your car is weird.
driving my car includes:
- paying money to put gas, oil, tires on the car for the rest of my life
- paying some dickhead insurance fees monthly
- sitting in traffic
- risking getting a ticket from any power tripping cop who wants to make up a reason to test if I have a dashcam
- risking getting injured/murdered when any other idiot nearby in a car does something stupid at 60mph +
- if I do get injured, I get to pay for that too cause MURICA
- a notable lack of anything fun and cool like open windy roads to drive on or safe areas to do donuts
now, do you really think most people like not having a choice about needing all that just to get basic life stuff done? ‘Driving my car’ isn’t some fun hobby for us, it’s a bullshit thing we’re coerced into because our country was run by oil tycoons who hated public transport.
oh forgot one:
- dealing with a generation of old people who have been permanently stunted by leaded gasoline, making them more likely to be stupid, angry, and violent.
