🙄 people just like their cars, it's not some evil plot. Evening is big oils fault, never people meeting choices.
The major car manufacturers have literally been collaborating for the better part of a century, along with oil companies, to keep Americans dependent on cars. It’s a well-documented fact. Even long before Citizebs United made corporate bribery legal, they’ve been using the state’s power to quell protests, destroy non-car infrastructure, and outlaw use of our streets for anything except cars.
🙄👌👍
Dear readers, does your Lemmy client have user tags? It can be crucial to the browsing experience.
Why tag when block
Funnier
Actually agree haha
Many cities had their convenient bus and tram line bought and dismantled by auto companies. All while under huge protest of residents too.
It was not a natural evolution that got us here.
