Cars can get fucked in every community :)
No thank you. I don't want to have to block every community like I already block fuckcars.
Most folks in there want to imagine everyone in the world lives in a dense metropolis with easily accessible, 24/7/365, cheap/free, and timely public transportation. Alternatively they seem to believe people shouldn't live anywhere but that dense metropolis. While most of that criteria does certainly exist in small pockets scattered around the globe, the other 98% of where people live or need to get to farther than walking/cycling can where public transportation doesn't exist need cars.
I'm fine if those folks want to continue to embrace their delusion only in that Lemmy community. Its their opinion, and they are welcome to it even if I disagree. Its their clubhouse and I'm certainly not going to go in there and start a fight, but there's no reason to try to turn every other community into that same narrow mindset.
Not the "rural places need cars" argument lmao. Tell me you haven't lived in a rural town without telling me you haven't lived in a rural town.

You're wrong in a variety of ways. If I wanted to spend all day correcting fuckcars people all day I wouldn't have blocked that specific community. I don't know why are you posting in an Automotive Industry Lemmy community if you're just posting fuckcars comments.
Can I trust you are interested in discussing other things besides your fuckcars ideas or do I need to block you specifically like I did that Lemmy community?
