Kids around here still play on the streets. And roam around town on their bikes and on foot. Cars drive accordingly. That's not the message the auto industry pushed and got adopted most places unfortunately.

Companies do influence society often for the worse. The problem is people listen to this shit and just accept it. There needs to be a counter narrative. People need to be able to live good fulfilling lives that provide healthy challenges, physically and mentally. The car ruined our physical spaces. Corporate LLMs are coming for our mental spaces.
