The Reagan White House moved to lower tax rates for developers in the 1980s and then years of low interest rates glutted downtowns with office buildings. Time's up.
looks like fuckcars is here 🙄 /s (HERE. Pointing out a joke like I’m on reddit for the smoothbrained reactionaries over on fuckcars that need it spelled out for them.)
But I do wish they would focus more on the “building walkable cities and the benefits thereof” and less on “IF YOU OWN A CAR YOU EAT BABIES” bullshit they like over there. Shitposting with a theme, I guess.
EDIT: man even if I make a lighthearted joke about it you little whiny babies downvote me en mass like that shit matters on lemmy because AAARGH CARBRAIN MUST BE NEUTRALLIZED.
I got 20 downvotes in moments and then what, two? Three? Now the last only gets a couple? Especially when my post history is generally positively received unless I’m talking about them. Ya. I got someone angy and they keep getting all bent out of shape about it. Plus I do attack them a lot. Nah, I quit when they stop being salty lil sallys. That or learn to ignore people who are intentionally antagonistic.
Thank you. Someone gets it. I, myself, love PEVs, so walkable cities are my dream. But those guys are just so…angry. I have said it before, but the fuckcars community here and on reddit are primed to be another joke that got out of control, IE flat earthers, Trump, blah blah blah. I have already gotten some, er, rabid comments from folks taking it a bit too seriously.
Yeah same, I’m a bit of a transport nerd and love trains - I’ve planned bits of holidays especially to ride trains I wanted to see, also for reasons I didn’t learn to drive until I was late 30s and almost never drive because I hate it - I think it’s for this reason I really find fuckcars frustrating, they act like trains are a magical solution to all transport needs and every car is evil.
Every transport authority in the world agrees mixed mode integrated transport networks are the future, it’s not even slightly a debate.

Aw, man, two thirds through your comment I upvoted you cuz I felt bad your joke got taken wrong.
But the winge-fest in the edit… Dude sometimes a joke doesn’t land, take the L.
Lol, why. It’s more fun poking the beehive. Especially one as sensitive as they.
Ehh, all you really did was look obnoxious more than anything else. I don’t think you actually managed to upset anyone.

I feel like fuckcars acts as a magnet for some of the more rabid redditor transplants from the antiwork sub.
Theres plenty of good points to be made but some of these kids are just red lining it all the time.

I see only one that is sensitive here, and it is the one adding edits screaming about nobody liking their joke.
Oh nooooo, I’m so ashaaaamed. Who cares dude. Its lemmy for god sakes.
