I feel like I've seen an uptick in articles posted here that are covering cyclists or pedestrians getting killed in car crashes. I understand that this community is centered around our hatred for cars but seeing a constant feed of deaths by cars isn't really what I want. I would prefer memes, discussions on how to improve things, and articles about policy etc instead of an endless stream of daily deaths.

How do you feel about these posts?

We know solutions like bike lanes, public transport or home office for suitable jobs. Problem is convincing politics that these solutions are necessary to build/implement. Currently tax/bribe money from car/oil companies is too juicy.

We currently have the biggest oil crisis of my life. Its only dampened by advances of green energy. Yet politics talk about making gas cheaper instead of implementing right for homeoffice which would reduce gas usage over night.

But noo lets all drive hours to work just to chat with AI and offshore colleagues from India. Good times.
