    Except in germany noone would ever dare blame/restrict private cars in any way. See eg the ridiculous “discussion” on a potential highway speed limit. For non-germans: Yes, speed on highways is generally unrestricted and for some reason that seems to be more important to us than safety or protecting the climate.

      Ya… but you can’t blame the poor volk. Since the war ended we’ve been praised for our Autobahns. Our Autobahns are the best and fastest and most reliablest, we are always on time and don’t get me started on precision. Just how precise are we Germans? Who cares about enviroment, we are the best in something! Fuck nature. Like the boys from Kraftwerk sang:

      ♬
      Autobahn
      Autobahn
      ♬
      Wir fahr'n, fahr'n, fahr'n, auf der Autobahn
      Wir fahr'n, fahr'n, fahr'n, auf der Autobahn
      ♬
      

      …it’s a banger tho…
