    Made it about halfway through. The long and shot of it is their steel man of the fuckcars position is violence against car owners and a 0 car world. I think that’s pretty disingenuous. So you’re asking me to point out what’s wrong with an argument made about ghosts. What’s wrong would be the premise.

    I don’t think anyone here is pushing for a 0 car world or pushing to use violence to do so. If there are I would assume they are in the vast minority. Some people with disabilities need cars and such. I do think that in the USA at very least that public transportation is so bad outside of our top 10 city’s that it’s not even worth considering. I do think that’s a problem, don’t you agree? In the video they often talk about freedom what about the freedom of not needing a car to do XYZ?

      Yeah, not sure how other interpreted but imo fuckcar isn’t about hating car, it’s about hating motonormativity/carbrain.
