I just spent the day watching a local drift event. I rode my bike there and it was awesome. For the nerds: my two favorite cars there were a 3SGE-swapped TE72 Corolla and an S14 with a RB dry sump setup.
Commuting? general transportation? Cars are completely unnecessary. For motorsports, however, cars ARE necessary. What are you gonna do, drift a bike?
A glimpse into the brain of a car enthusiast that hates cars.
I mean, sure, if you completely ignore any context a leftist saying "we should get rid of cars" has then it's absolutely absurd in the same sense that ignoring all the context around a surgeon going "we're going to knock you out and slice you open on a table" makes it sound absurd.
There's obviously an unspoken part where we build metric fucktons of high-quality public transit and make cars unnecessary beforehand. I'm not advocating that service industry workers do a death march in order to get yelled at by entitled boomers all day.
