Seriously. I feel like my health and my wellbeing are hostage of a mass of angry egocentric drivers who can't possibly conceive taking a bike ride or using public transportation. Given their aggressive and uncompromising approach, I feel the only way to make this work is to literally force it on cities through critical masses, basically using the same coin they use.
They don't care about my health? I don't care about them being late to work.
- BuyMyBitcoins 5y agoThis attitude is partially why car drivers are so anti-anti-car people. You attribute such negative traits as egocentrism and anger to them and then insinuate they don’t care about your health. But the truth is that just about everyone outside of your friends and family doesn’t care about your health. It’s mere human nature.
- pietrovismara 5y agoWhy should I care about their work schedule then? Is it not my nature as well to disregard that in favor of my health?
- pas 5y agoThat's not the problem. The only real factor here is that a lot of people vote against anti-car politics. End of story. It doesn't matter that they personally are good/bad/green/egoist/selfish/selfless/saints. The problem is that they are short sighted, and don't even try to move the set-point of the traffic situation. When I drive I hate everything and everyone, it's miserable. Nowhere to park, no one can drive, everyone is slow, everyone is in a rush... But of course some people doesn't have such a strong emotional response to the situation, or they have a very strong response to mass transit...
