    It is not silly and not “whataboutism”

    I agree except that you are not attacking the cause. WTF are they producing SUV ? Automotive is a business.

    Personally, I don’t drive for pleasure, i pretty hate it. I drive because I can’t get a freaking job in my area even though being educated and experienced but refusing lower pay based on my color - I know the rates! The whiteasses here prefer paying indian sweatshop even though they don’t deliver.

    If commute was reasonable, I would trade my car without hesitation!

      that (everything being too far to not drive) is the exact reason why probably everyone else in this community drives a car, and walkable infrastructure is the main thing it promotes. no one here is saying we should stop making cars and change nothing, instead that we should change things so that cars aren’t necessary anymore
