      If that’s how you read that, you need better reading comprehension. It’s pretty well known that being presented with an argument, even one that you might agree with – but seeing that everyone downvoted it, is more likely to get you to downvote it as well. Everyone does it, it’s a relic of humanity’s evolution. I was not insulting those who disagreed with me. 🤓indeed. But hey, when everyone online has been trained to be the victim over everything, that’s kinda the response I figured I’d get from someone.

        Motherfucker, you SAID IT. You said “as for the followers of this sub, herd animals gonna herd animal”.

        Own your argument you disingenuous dicksplash.

          Damn if it being spelled out still doesn’t allow you to get it, I don’t know what else to say.

        You literally called us herd animals and they you hit us with the “if that’s how you want to read that”???

        Also, your position is severely lacking. Please try to factor in the total emissions from car tires and the impact that has on public health. Next facture in the obesity epidemic which directly correlates with car dependency. Also, please consider that we have created a world where people drive to a gym to run on a treadmill because it isn’t safe for them to exercise outside. That one is harder to put a number on but it is extremely dystopian.

        So if you want all your organs polluted with microplastics from car tire dust and you fully support the depression, loneliness, and obesity epidemics, then keep defending car dependency because that is hidden cost of cars that people don’t talk about nearly enough.
