Why can't leftists in the West (yes including those who exclusively pander to Western audiences) talk about urban design and public transportation without turning into some very petty personal animosity against cars?

It honestly does have genuine Fascist undertone: this ceaseless drive to have this technocratically sound, ideal society build on the ruins of the people's living tradition. It's reminiscent of Hitler's Germania or some pipe dreams of Italian Futurists.

No materialism from these worthless grifters. These losers are completely unable to have any amount of solidarity with workers in critiquing the Actually Existing Living Tradition, such as the design of a satanic death cult where (black) kids are unable to walk to school without getting run over:

"Each year, 1.35 million people are killed on roadways around the world. Every day, almost 3,700 people are killed globally in crashes involving cars, buses, motorcycles, bicycles, trucks, or pedestrians. More than half of those killed are pedestrians, motorcyclists, or cyclists."

I like this reply:

"The fascist undertone of "getting rid of all cars" is the deliberate obliteration of people's way of life in pursuit of a bullshit idealism as you said. Destroying cars is destroying people's basic motility & freedom of movement. Leftists & liberals both want 1984 to be real."

"motility" huh, where have I heard that word before? Oh yeah:

>Healthy sperm motility is defined as sperm with forward progressions of at least 25 micrometers per second. If a man has poor sperm mobility, it's called asthenospermia or asthenozoospermia. There are different types of sperm motility issues, including: slow or sluggish progressive motility.

a Marxist community that feels the need to cling to outdated idpol like nationalism? How shocking that they're impotent lol :amber:
