I’ve got to admit that when I first heard of the anti-cars community, I was a little skeptical. “Whats wrong with cars?” I thought. But the more I lurked, and the more I watched youtube channels like Not just bikes, the more I understood just how shitty the world is around us. Fuck Cars.

    1. sour grapes from being a teenager whose family couldn’t afford one (I later learned this is far from the norm and I was acting so spoiled)
    2. learning to drive and realizing I’m bad at it, other people are bad at it, this creates a terrifying amount of danger, and thus I hate it
    3. becoming a leftist and learning about all the historical fuckery that went into car-ify-ing the US and other places
    4. experiencing viable public transit and bike infrastructure when I lived in NYC during college
    5. becoming climate-conscious
