> The logic seems highly unreasonable in a capitalist society
There's your answer, or at least for some substantial portion of people posting in r/fuckcars and others like r/latestagecapitalism, r/antiwork, etc - they aren't thinking in the framework of a capitalist society (merits of this aside).
> without veiled political agendas pushed online for profit.
Pretty funny to think that socialist agendas are being pushed for profit. Undoubtedly true in some cases, but I'd like to think some people aren't driven solely by profit, even if it's only people who don't have to think about things like paying for food and shelter.
- winternett 4y agoI should have also added that it's not possible in a democratic society as well. From what I can see the agenda is for profit in some way because nothing on this scale is ever promoted without profit being involved. Ride sharing companies, and plenty of technology companies stand to make a lot of money if the right to personal ownership of vehicles disappears... It's not a stretch of the imagination, these days.. Almost all online campaigns and brigades can be traced back to some sort of profit scheme or organized political power move.
