    Some people (frothingfash ) are just enraged by the sight of someone doing anything but driving. One of my pet theories is that they realize driving a 2 ton gas guzzler is objectively terrible for themselves, everyone around them, the environment, etc, but have also attached their identity and sense of self to their TurboRamCanyonaro XXXL Ranch Style pickup that's never hauled anything more than little Jimmy or the weekly Costco run, so even the existence of any alternative (bicycles, trains, busses, walking, etc) is an attack on who they are and not just a better way of getting around

      I think its the same energy that drives the people who hate vegans. The knowledge that the vegan is probably right and they don't really have a good counterargument other then its just too big a step for them makes them feel that the vegan must be judging them because they're the kind of person whose super concerned with what everyone else does and thinks
