Yeah, I'm a Bernie Sanders voting progressive who generally votes for "complete streets" or other forms of car unfriendly policies. But make no mistake, cars are freedom. Take all the tradition left-wing shit about "biopower" or "biopolitics" like what Foucault talks about. Apply that sort of thinking to cars vs to mass transit. "The state" defines where mass transit systems will drop you off or not. If you have to be very inconvenienced by the states decision, tough shit. Applying it to cars, I am only limited by my vehicles ability to travel on paved vs unpaved roads. Americans have a unique freedom to buy insane brodozer off-roading gas guzzlers for far cheaper than pretty much anyone else. In many lightly policed places, they can literally drive anywhere they want, and not have to smell the BO of people around them. I'm still going to vote against them most of the time, but make no mistake, there are very positive and valuable parts of a car based society. Same with individualism. Spend some time in a truly collectivist society, and you'll be begging for some more individualism real quick.
