For your own mental health, you need to take a breath and try and not take alternative viewpoints as personal attacks. The post I responded to referenced "efforts to try to reduce the number of cars on the roads instead of just replacing them 1:1 and calling it a day." i.e. reducing personal car ownership. Don't ignore the fact that people do extremely useful things with their cars- lifesaving activities. You obviously are attached to your phone, the same way people are attached to their personal cars. A little bit of empathy would go a long way here

Like jumping to prison cells and bug juice at the hint of reducing the amount of cars on the roads?


Like taking the logical leap to the conclusion that I identify myself with cars?? Pot meet kettle


After you jumped to bug juice, yes, obviously cars make a big part of your identity.
