That community completely ignores reality for ~~millions~~ billions of people that absolutely need a car to live a life in the thousands of cities that don't have adequate public transportation and 100% of the rural areas in the world.
I don't think they ignore it, they're just not happy about it.
They are fighting for better transportations for them so, I don't think they ignore them. They are very aware of them and very keen on improving their lives conditions.
Multiple billions no. There's 1.4 billion cars after a casual google, and considering how many people have cars as a convenience or multiple cars I think it might be closer to a single billion people need cars.
