Reply to comment by dumbass_0 in Found this setup of flowers in the middle of the street. For Jersey City having a bad reputation, they have some really nice displays all over by FishinDrones

I thought people in cities were supposed to take those streetcars and buses and bikes and stuff, because city bloggers told me that's what cities are for. Yet all the time I hear how people living in cities everywhere complain about traffic and parking, European cities too.

Is this your best response why people even in walkable cities talk about traffic and parking so much?

I'm just not sure what your point is. Cars and traffic exist and therefore... cities are bad? Trains are pointless? Liberals are hypocrites? Like, what are you even getting at?

Talk about bizarre comments. Cities are fine. Trains are convenient. "Liberals" is a weird term.

What I'm criticizing is modern public-transit-over-all city bloggers and "fuckcars" people who are either blind of hypocrite. They are usually triggered when someone says something good about cars like pointing out people actually need them regardless.

This makes absolutely zero sense. How does the current proliferation of cars mean they are blind or hypocrites? Because current infrastructure encourages the use of cars, the people that want fewer cars and better public transportation and walkable cities are blind hypocrites because....what?

This is as dumb as saying "if you want fewer ants in your house then why are there so many ants in your house huh smart guy?" It's confusing tautological nonsense that you somehow think is a gotcha against better infrastructure.

OMG I talk to you that there is no place on Earth no matter how public transport friendly that does away with personal cars, I give you personal examples but to you your theoretic theories you built in your mind are more real than reality. I'l see myself out.

Yeah, cars still exist and there's still lots of infrastructure built around them, congratulations I guess?

How do you think those people moved there in the beginning? When we lived in Manhattan we still had a permanent parking space we rented for our car, so we could drive to visit family whenever we had a long weekend. ♡ Granny

Oh no. What are you saying. That people in walkable cities will still drive, need roads and parking spots? That we can't do away with all commuter paradise?

Stop! Stop saying such things! It's evil!
