Why do leftists hate cars so much?

[thespanishcel]

Tbh on soyit (reddit) the general consensus of the left is that cars = bad and that we should ban cars and replace them by bicycles and public transport all the time. Oh yeah that would work brilliantly specially for people who work in industrial areas far from the city with no public transport, nothing like a good 1 hour (or more) cycle to arrive sweaty and disgusting at work kek. Or when buying groceries for your whole family instead of doing one trip by car do several trips by foot or by bike so you lose even more of your valuable free time. Or people in rural areas who maybe get 1 bus each 2 hours to major cities, yeah let's take their cars so they're even more isolated and have to rely on public transport.

I honestly think all those anti-car people are rich hipsters who live in the city centre (in appartments paid by their families) therefore they don't need a car and believe everyone is the same. Or teens who are still in high school, have never worked and don't know how the real world works. Just like when politicians tell us from their ivory towers to stop taking showers or eating meat to save the planet. Perhaps they are filthy commies that hate anything related with freedom so a socialist utopia where you can only go where the government allows with public transport is their wet dream.

When I got a car I realized how much I was missing out: Before, to go to a town 8 kilometres away from my house I had to take a shitty bus that took 45 minutes because it stopped in all the other towns and took detours. With the car, I could be there in 10 minutes or even less depending on the traffic. The only times I can see myself relying only in public transport is in places like Tokyo or Hong Kong which are massified cities and have very efficient public transport systems because Asians are obsessed with productivity and perfectionism. Even in big European cities you can't trust the public transport, it's always delayed, cancelled or on strike. Except the metro which is most of the times very good.

You've got to be kidding me Bruh I couldn't care less about people that delusional and honestly reddit has become a platform for idiots, I think anyone can say that not only incels, but these people exist and I gotta keep my watch before they do some crazy votes. I fucking support killing people, we should kill people very soon or else crazy people will take over, this is real talk, this is inevitable.

I bought my car (nothing fancy but still a nice car that worked well) after working so hard in summer 2019 in a camping site. I paid for like 70% of it and my parents helped me with the rest and insurance. The total cost was around 2800€. It wasn't something super expensive but no one will give it to you for free. Of course leftists hate hard work so it makes sense what you say.

I will pollute this gay Earth as much as I want. The Earth has survived multiple disasters. Me buying a car won't hurt it if Ice Ages couldn't hurt it in the long term.

Legos and Star Wars only if they are "woke".

Because leftists aren't usually poor. Contrary to popular belief, even before the Communist Revolution, most people who supported Socialism/Communism were not workers. Most Communists were journalists and generally Middle/Upper Class (ironic). Leftists are just heavily authoritarian and want to control people, because they are evil.

 

[Therapywasaaste]

My dad likes cars so I don't like cars. I do like Volkswagens though and certain cars.

 

[ForevrAlone]

Because they think that "muh global warming" is a real thing and that cars contribute to it jfl

 

[Monke]

You can either live in suburbia, where you can drive. But public transportation is not sustainable due to increased distances, so you have to drive.

Or you can live in the city, where everything is close, and public transportation works fine so you don't have to drive. But because of high density only few people can drive, so cars must be made inconvenient.

You just have to choose the poison.

 

[Mecoja]

They hate everything right wingers like and everything what is considered masculine.

 

[JayGoptri]

I'm still trying to figure it why any of you go on reddit to begin with. It's a waste of time.

I don't like cars in the sense I'm not interested in learning about cars, engines or car repairs like some boomers who are obsessed with cars. But I like cars because they improve your life quality by making commuting or running errands so easy if public transport is bad or you're too far/carry too much weight to go by foot or bike.

 

[LeFrenchCel]

I suppose that : cars = toxic gas in the air = pollution = bad

It makes sense to like cars.

 

[crestfallencel]

cars have been the symbol of american freedom for 100 years, another aspect that must be swept away like Civil War monuments, the founding fathers, etc.

 

[Don Vito]

Check the subreddit r/fuckcars

But there´s also a reddit dedicated to review cars

Reddit - Dive into anything

www.reddit.com

However. Reddit leans to leftwing stuff. Kinda funny redditor make funny of people who use twitter, when they are kinda the same. For not say worst. Since Reddit downvote system hides diverse opinions and soy mods have more control of what can be posted and what cannot.

That being said. Wouldn´t be a surprise why such subreddit exists.

 

[Don Vito]

Sorry I read the tittle of the OP. Well is because pollutionmaxxing.

 

[NirvanaFan1988]

bc they cannot afford it kek

Jfl, they are parasites and losers like us

 

[NirvanaFan1988]

pollutionmaxxing.

they don't care about environment, it's hypocrisy, if they cared they wouldn't leap immediately at the newest and latest tech and throw money at it like complete idiots.

American cities are designed like shit and car culture makes people isolated, fat, and depressed

Most Redditors are Americans, go to any large American city and you will understand why people hate them: there are just too many drivers on the road, they are the leading causes of premature deaths and injuries, a lot of land is wasted to build massive parking lots, everything gets zoned in a way that forces you to take the car for everything, and the large lane roads make the city look soulless.

 

[proudweeb]

they pollute the environment (supposedly)

they are also masculine with high horsepower, loud engines etc. the left is feminine and weak so they hate that

Well cars work best in countries which are large in size in America or Australia, but in smaller more densely populated places like Japan or China they just aren't really practical, which is why those countries tend to focus on trains.

 

[ionlycopenow]

They’re virtue signaling. They have never had to use public transit so don’t know how bad it is. It’s a combination of both ignorance, vanity, and being naive/sheltered.

 

[bigantennaemay1]

I honestly think all those anti-car people are rich hipsters who live in the city centre (in appartments paid by their families) therefore they don't need a car and believe everyone is the same.

Bingo.

Exceptions proof the rule. Public transport is mostly underdeveloped thanks to tradcucks, libtards and big oil. It is more severe in the US though, where the userbase of reddit is, which explains a lot of the vitriol. Also cars are hugely subsidized externalizing the cost onto the tax payer (not necessarily abad thing, but PG is more efficient and should be a possible option), I would strip cars from most taxes. Then increase oil tax. Also give people either tax return for driving to work or increase the size of the progressive tax brackets. People can then chose, what to use the money for. This would incetivise to use PT, while not making owning a car to expensive.

Most people using a bike usually shop after work on the way home.

The principles of wealth accumulation, that apply to people also applies to cities, there should be more rural development and community spaces to make staying there more attractive. Btw also a reason, why small cities's PT sucks. You have to see the whole picture.

In the future there should be PT with self driving stuff. But won't happen because big car wants to sell their stuff and lobbies heavily.

PT would also help to stop traffic jams.

I like cars, but ideally, you would use them for fun only and not at the cost of the environment and the other people. I prefer old cars or very expensive cars though.

Conservative and liberal media is mostly just stirring a fake war to protect their assets once again using rural populations fears.

Public things bad, because less money to be extracted. So they keep it bad and expensive.

But obviously it's all hipsters, commies, teenagers, lgbtq, big climate science, too poor people, too rich people. Ev[UWSL]eryone, but corrupt politicians and corporations. We are very free. [/UWSL]

[UWSL]i think it is less the cars leftistd hate and more the corruption it stands for.[/UWSL]

 

[Mr Bubbless]

I hate cars as well because they make a lot of noise, make everyone lazy fat retarded slob WALL-E people and they're expensive as fuck. I wish I could just walk to the store instead of spending 15 minutes waiting inside the aluminium coffin with wheels.

Even in big European cities you can't trust the public transport, it's always delayed, cancelled or on strike. Except the metro which is most of the times very good.

Do you live in Spain?

 

[Linesnap99]

caring about redditiors opinion. kek. they will regurgitate anything that the media will tell them.

 

[nazianime]

Public transportation would be nice but thanks to niggers, homeless and drug addicts it is impossible to actually use it in metropolitan areas.
