Imagine if we took away cars

Just imagine for a second if it was not completely common place to own multiple forms of transportation. Being able to move your body from one place to another is such a basic ability that is underappreciated. We've genetically subsidized the softest and unhealthiest of people. So many people would simply cease to exist if they could not walk to and from the grocery store.

We need to attack fatties like we've taken on the corona virus.

I traveled to Houston and something sparked my thinking. I saw the biggest truck, with 6 wheels, just idling so loud. I had to wait around to see who would get out of this monster at the gas station. It was the fattest, most disgusting woman I'd ever seen. Something about this massive piece of machinery being needed for this woman to choke down 44 oz of mountain dew at a gas station was just amazing to me.

btw - Houston is probably the most disgusting part of the country in terms of human capital.

If all the money spent on chit cars was spent on glorious public transportation we would have overall better and more livable cities all jokes aside. Cars killed proper urban development and the cities .




Imagine if every street had an electric tram running 24/7, would be hnnnnngggggg

This would help against obesity a lot, since you would need to walk a bit until the nearest stop plus pedestrian friendly cities make you walk more although you enjoy it more

More like sorry I came in early and well rested boss, since the clean and efficient electric tram took me on time to work while I took a nap so I'm well rested and ready to MOGG.

On a side note the whole concept of self-driving electric cars is just cope and snake oil by the tech oligarchs to get us to spend more money in useless crap. You know what other kind of vehicle is actually fuken ecofriendly, driverless (to the user) and safe? A PHUCKEN BUS/TRAM.

god damn you are fukking retarded, fat people currently go to the gym and parks, and they accomplish this by driving and parking. Having a car means convenience, I'm not trying to wait for the next bus in order to get food or do something. What if I have to work at 2 am, you really think theres gonna be a bus or train for me to take?

You sound like an ALIENATED PUSSY SISSY CUCK. Lmao @ shilling for the auto industry, the most pathetic cucked a "man" can do. You are a subhuman piece of chit cuck, go fuk yourself you fuking mongrel piece of SCUM.

IF the auto industry wasn't in bed with politicians and hadn't cucked the entire country for decades you would have clean and efficient public transport 24/7 like in most actual first world cities. Its not my fault you havent left your bumfuk town, in the actually developed world theres efficient public transport 24/7.

Agreed.

I have spent a considerable amount of time bicycle commuting, and it honestly makes you think.

Imagine if everyone had a folding bicycle, and a train pass.

the Interstate system created the need for cars. Imagine taking a 200mph train somewhere; it would be the dream. You could sit on ur phone and rocket around the country, pop off onto your bike and roll to where ever you want to go.

rails require less maintenance, less energy consumption, are much faster, etc etc etc.

Everyone is fat AF because you just wake up, then sit to get to work lol. It's insane, and the fact that more than 50% of people in the first world need to "drive" to get to work shows an insane lack of actual thinking.

I wanted to bicycle around town today, but my front tire was flat, so I had to drive.

I think black people would be amongst the most benefited by clean and efficient public transport tbh. Probably would help them climb out of poverty and else. Imagine all the energy and resources spent policing the roads and traffic, could be spent policing public transport, put cameras and a cop in every stop and you would be good to go.

Holy FUK can't believe we actually agree on something, das it. On point with your observations. Shared bycicle programs are quite cool in cities that have those, those bikes suck a bit but the convenience of picking up a bike in a random zone and leaving it on another station when you're done is goat.

Oh yes because everyone wants to live in a big city in the 2020's! Public transportation has been proven to be totally desirable in a pandemic economy!

More like I'm sorry I was ROBBED when I fell asleep on public transportation, I'm gonna need a new laptop and phone. Also sorry I smell like VOMIT and PISS, because that's what I was sitting in on my way to work.

Ever been to europe? Even in bumfuk eastern europe little towns and villages have a train station. The tech oligarchs want you to buy a 150K self driving cuck-tesla for you to sit alone in it while you scroll through fb like a cuck. When you could just sit in a train traveling at much faster speeds in a social and safer environment.

I legit feel bad for you alienation.

Even over 100 years ago people knew how retarded public transport was when everyone was riding around on horses. Nobody wants to be stuck in big cities and cattle cars.

Go use public transport in europe or developed Asia and report back. It's way easier to police and mantain order and control public transport than it is to do the same in millions of random roads and vehicles.

Cameras , now that’s a laugh . Dingers no they have impunity from the law from anything other than committing a homicide .
Surveillance won’t do chit.
As for cops , Libs are doing their best to defund the cops .

Damn that's pretty aesthetic.

But the problem with the US is that instead of spending money on it's citizens, the military has done a very good job of fear mongering the US government into giving them a chit ton of money.

The US is really just a resource mule for the British. It's not worth developing because the southerners are going to take over within the next 100 years. The war with China will leave a gaping hole in the US for Mexico to take over.

I'd love to live in a more walkable or bike friendly city.

Walking around on college campus or back in A school for the navy was the GOAT. It saves so much money too and walking is usually enjoyable if it's not crowded.

Now I find myself driving to go on a nice walk lmao.

Public transport sucks dick, when you go on a bus do you see rich people? or cracked out peasants?

The dude is some leftist who wants everyone to be a city dweller, showing off cherry picked tourism photos in an idealistic fashion under the false pretense of a utopia.

JFL @ PARKING LOTS the most horrible thing in the universe:

I don't know, I don't think parking lots are a big deal. It's always funny searching for a spot for 45 seconds, when you realize it takes like 15 seconds to walk across that lot.
