MODERATORS
Yeah, not gonna watch an hour of this to find out.
Could you please at least state the thesis of the video?
Could you be more constructive when posting?
When linking such a video I would have expected your thoughts on the matter, when not as a separate response video then as a list of comments. Was there something you agreed with? What points were BS? The very least is mentioning the video title and by whom, instead of asking people to follow just some Youtube link.
If this community allows just linking random, disagreeing videos on the topic, you have an endless amount of spam you can post with this exact title. Give your own thoughts on something!
And if this was truly a genuine question, from what I've seen it's nut picking: the examples in the first few minutes I watched had no upvotes at all, far from representing the community, they were just some random nut cases.
What do you think?
Made it about halfway through. The long and shot of it is their steel man of the fuckcars position is violence against car owners and a 0 car world. I think that's pretty disingenuous. So you're asking me to point out what's wrong with an argument made about ghosts. What's wrong would be the premise.
I don't think anyone here is pushing for a 0 car world or pushing to use violence to do so. If there are I would assume they are in the vast minority. Some people with disabilities need cars and such. I do think that in the USA at very least that public transportation is so bad outside of our top 10 city's that it's not even worth considering. I do think that's a problem, don't you agree? In the video they often talk about freedom what about the freedom of not needing a car to do XYZ?
Yeah, not sure how other interpreted but imo fuckcar isn't about hating car, it's about hating motonormativity/carbrain.
Get this click bait title shit outta here.
