@Satsuma @eldang @GwenfarsGarden right, but there is a way of saying that which does not throw rural people under the bus, and it’s “improve and incentivize public transit”. which is what OP is saying.

if you are living in rural texas, without a car you do not have access to HRT, gender‐affirmation surgery, specialized medical care of any kind, or abortions. period. we do not have at our disposal any technology which could change that, and are not likely to anytime in the near future.

those are, i hope, things you agree people should have access to, and i would hope you would understand why people saying a plain, unqualified “no cars” might make individuals in that sort of a situation rather defensive.

i don’t know how anyone could read a continuation of that sort of language, understanding the above, as indicating anything other than “i don’t care about those people or how they feel”.

i also hate cars ftr

@eldang @GwenfarsGarden @Satsuma :redesign-urban-life*: is still explicitly an urban perspective tho? and understanding that the cities ALREADY tend to drive politics in a way which leaves rural areas underresourced i don’t think it’s hard to understand why people would be concerned about this

you may think this is a funny post but it’s not that hard to imagine a world where this is the division everybody ordered sexual identity according to rather than gay/straight
