I think "FuckCars" is meant to be "FuckCarDependence" but that's not as catchy. People in those communities are usually pretty open about the fact that cars have their purposes and aren't evil on their own.

Basically the same issue as r/FuckCars

Yeah, I am on team "Fuck Car Dependance" because I hate everything about em - driving, the ecological impact of cars and the society wide inequalities created and reinforces by designing space around them.

But I would be virtually unhirable in my field if I didn't drive... And there is zero way to fix that even if we managed to dismantle the system of strodes, massive parking lots, low density suburbs, inadequate public transit etc...

Oh yeah, delivering them poems while driving past would be pretty hard without a car ;)

My motorized steed?
