Bus lanes and trams are a symbol of “communism” and car is a sign of “freedom”

This is basically it.

I saw a post the other day that argued to the conservative mind there must be an underclass. There must be poor people whose lives suck. If you try to make things good for everyone, you're going against nature and will just make things bad for everyone.

Thus good public transit is bad. If different classes of people all mingle then it's like mixing your food up on the plate and that's just wrong!

They really are like children
