I would argue that those who are disconnected from reality are those who believe in a system that essentially requires every single person to own and operate a 2+ ton piece of heavy machinery just to get groceries or go to school or work.
Fucking lmao can you hear yourself?? Seriously?? That’s the only thing that cars offer??
I wasn’t going to reply further in this thread because this community is a fucking joke but your comment was so profoundly stupid I just couldn’t help myself. I’d call it a braindead take but it’s just so insubstantial and incorrect that I’m not even sure it qualifies as a “take”.
Are you an 18th century horse salesman? Carriage driver? Farrier? Or are you an edgy middle schooler who just found their first shitty internet opinion?
You are so far gone from the real world I doubt you could ever make it back to planet earth.
Pull your head out of your ass and pay attention to reality. Grow up.
The car and oil industries are killing the environment and the cars themselves are a leading cause of death in cities all over the world. I’m not the one who needs to grow up here, bud. I live in reality, and that reality is a dying earth and death defying walks to work when cars won’t respect my inability to protect myself against them.
If it weren’t for the car and oil industries we’d have efficient trains taking us across the country instead of fossil fuel chugging planes and individual automobiles.
Yeah this is ridiculous, I’m all for mass transit but good luck getting anything done outside of a city without a car. Idiots. Yeah let’s just go back to horses.

Of all the subreddits we should’ve left on reddit.
This braindead circlejerk never should’ve come here. You are all completely disconnected from reality. Enjoy your larping.

In cities, yeah sure. But in rural areas? How is that gonna work without cars?
If the only places using cars are truly rural areas, that’s still a major upgrade.
And by some countries’ metrics, there’s a high bar for truly “rural” where they won’t have a train stop. By then, you’re barely addressing anyone.
Who gives a shit? Nobody lives there anyway; that’s what makes it “rural!”
Rural people don’t matter (when it comes to this topic), and pretending they do is nothing but concern trolling.

Why do you think it’s braindead and disconnected from reality to want people to be able to live without a car?
It is possible to block communities on lemmy, if it is bothering you that much.
First thing I did after seeing this post.
Cars offer nothing but death and destruction under the guise of freedom. Those who can’t see that are the ones disconnected from reality.
Personally I enjoy cleaner, quieter cities and safer streets, but I guess that’s just nuts, right?
“Cars offer nothing but death and destruction”
