One of the worst ways, absolutely worst ways, to get people to listen to you is for "rural can't survive without cars" people to wade into a post about cities and keep going on about them, as if they're the only ones that matter and city dwellers shouldn't solve their city problems without the permission of someone far away who doesn't live there.
It's just not about you. Please try and have the humility to not act like it is.
Weird enough I never said anything of that, but thank you for the reminder on the importance of reading comprehension.
They just shared their perspective with people in this thread, not agreeing with the person posting this comment. If it was according to your logic, I would've agreed that rural places require cars (even though I've been in rural areas that mostly move around with public transport) just because I disagreed with someone saying that rural living is unsustainable as compared to urban living.
