Reply to comment by Cloud_Disconnected in Any good places for a first date in Branson? (preferably a park or some place to walk around in) by [deleted]
It wasn’t like I came completely from left field though. Not only did I also mention the landing seems like a great spot for a date but to add to the conversation I was simply just making an observation about how people gravitate towards these walkable places for many different reasons including dates. When would be a good time to discuss the cars dominance in lives? It’s an issue we’ve been ignoring for a long time and one that’s been getting worse. Pedestrian deaths are on the rise and no one seems to care. This is what Reddit was designed for: conversation and talking about the issues

That's just it, you're not adding to the conversation, you're diverting it to what you want to talk about rather than what OP wanted to talk about, which was nice spots for a date.
There are lots of good times to talk about it. But it's brought up ad nauseam in completely unrelated comment sections consistently.
No one seems to care about pedistrian deaths? That's just not true. It gets brought up all the time including here and in the news. People in this sub are upset about it often, and rightly so.
Yes, Reddit was created in part for discussion. We just don't have to discuss this particular subject in every thread.

I don’t know why you’re making such a big fuss about my point. All I was trying to say was that more walkable places would be a good idea because people seem to like them. I understand that you’ve heard the sentiment before but not everyone has. I just want to see a little bit of meaningful change in my lifetime and you have to get everyone to recognize that there’s a problem with how we’re designing our cities.
