Cars turned us—one of the best species in long distance running into couch potatoes.

Now llms are attacking our brains and making us stupid and insane. A species of slopheads if you will.

    So obviously you don’t like cars, that’s fine, I respect that. But your comment makes no sense. It’s like if I said, “I don’t like cake, I don’t understand how being forced to eat cake every day is enjoyable.”

    Having a car does not force you to drive it. Not having a car forces you to NOT drive it.

    You can hate cars, hell, you can hate me just for having one, but saying it FORCES you to drive it everyday is just nonsense.

      I don’t hate cars, I like mechanical shit. I hate not being able to commute without one because that’s how my country has built its towns and cities. The buses are shit, there are no trains and walking is out of the question because the pedestrian infrastructure is unsafe or non existent.

      It’s not your or any others singular car forcing anyone to drive. It’s the expectation that an adult person can drive and needs to use a car that forces or at least pushes everything towards driving.

      If the design and soundscape of almost any space weren’t impacted negatively by cars I wouldn’t think they’d be forcing anything onto me. But that is reality even in nominally not car dependent inner city Germany. So that’s why I hate cars.
