Pedestrians hate us too. Drivers want us off the road, pedestrians want us off the paths. We are welcome nowhere.

I remember this one motorist who as a hillarious joke would almost run me over. Not a fan of his

found the truck driver who tries to kill every cyclist they see

cyclists would not need to do those things if there was proper infrastructure and if car drivers weren't out to kill them.

making bikes come to a complete stop is less safe because of the acceleration curve of a bike, if the way is clear it's safer the cyclist and anyone else around for the cyclist to maintain speed

I mean, cyclists are often very reckless, dangerous people on the road

you should try interacting with cars as a pedestrian or cyclist. There are people driving on the roads now that I wouldn't trust to safely ride in a pram let alone use of heavy machinery at high speed in a public area based on a test they did years ago. If car use was held to the same standard as safely using heavy machinery in an industrial environment a lot of people who drive now wouldn't be let near a car. It's like people think they have a god given right to operate heavy machinery despite having no ability (or inclination) to do so safely and doing it around children

also bikes don't actually have turn signals and when you use your arm to signal it means you have less control of the bike while you do it

"Who doesn't like bicycles"

proceeds to list every bullshit anti bicycle talking point I've ever heard

Damn those entitled cyclists acting like they're entitled to use the road without getting run over.

I ride on the sidewalk when I can because I do not want to be run over by some in a truck with a 12" lift who's infuriated by having to see a bicycle

Riding on the sidewalk endangers pedestrians (especially children and people with disabilities). Crossing an intersection that has cars coming from the right is also unsafer because you enter drivers' the field of view much later (than if you're on the street) and at a higher velocity (than a pedestrian). If you are riding a car please accept that in the most places in the industrialized part of the world, bicyclists have exactly the same right to use the street (according to local regulations of course).

ill take your seething over a fine lol

You would be pissed at cyclists who are actually on the road where they are supposed to be unless there is a cycle path...?
