    No. Railcar suburbs once existed and existing car-dependent single-home suburbs can be turned into them by, as I already explained, densifying around the stations. Which has been done, and is being done, and would come soon also to your city if you bothered to argue for it.

    Learn how to read.

    Yeah that’s not how to argue. What am I supposed to read in that context? You’re deflecting.

    As to me personally: I never owned a car. Never needed one.

    I didn’t ask and I don’t care.

    You said this:

    You literally have to wait for every suburban stick in the mud to be willing to move out of their home or die before you can achieve your car-free dream.

    No, it’s not a dream. No, I’m not living in the city centre, either. You’re, again, deflecting in a desperate attempt to deny reality, denying the change that’s happening even in places that are culturally extremely car-centric.

    Touch grass.

      It means reread what you wrote and then reflect on what might have already been explicitly contradicted. Maybe reflect on what I’ve said about my political views instead of injecting the car loving stereotype you’ve made up.

      Congratulations bro. There are still cars all around you and you would still be safer if they were autonomous.

        Nah I don’t think you’re a petrol head, I think you’re a techbro. I’ve accused you of it amply, and you have never even tried to give off any other impression.

        Congratulations bro. There are still cars all around you and you would still be safer if they were autonomous.

        Statistically speaking I’m vastly more likely to fall off a ladder changing a lightbulb than getting hit by a car. But I’m sure you have a technology for that, too… don’t you? Because you want to focus on the issues that actually affect people?
