>>1224449>>1224459Nope. Unless you live in some major urban city like New York, you need a car if you want to live a real, actual ADULT LIFE, have a family, and so on. We don't live in some subsistence-farming, agrarian, low-tech culture, and if all you have is bicycles then you're never going to be taken seriously, not by anyone who is taken seriously by others. You'll forever be considered an overgrown child, living in a fantasy world. People like that should be sterilized or otherwise prevented from reproducing, so they don't infect innocent children with such nonsense notions.
>>1224498So when your theoretical kid has a 104 degree fever or some life-threatening injury, are you going to risk his or her life by wasting time trying to take them to the Emergency Room on a goddamned bicycle, or are you going to call for an ambulance (read as: A MOTOR VEHICLE) so maybe they survive? If you don't, then you're unfit to be a parent and should be prevented from having children, ever. Otherwise, you're only VIRTUE SIGNALLING by pretending to use bicycles for everything, because you're not willing to fully commit to it, you're full of shit basically and should stop pretending.
FURTHERMORE:
If you eschew motor vehicles, what you're really doing is voluntarily casting yourself in the role of SLAVES or SERFS, which is what The Rich 1% wants you to do: they're never going to give up their cars, but they want YOU to do that, to limit yourselves to a 20 or so mile radius of where you live, effectively limiting your ability to get a proper University education, to have a lucrative career, and to otherwise be kept "In your place" and not get uppity. The FACT of the matter is that modern society, everywhere in the 1st World, runs on MOTOR VEHICLES, and if you exclude yourself from that, you are voluntarily becoming part of the 3rd World, becoming part of the Lower Class, because you'll NEVER be taken seriously by anyone that matters. Why would you do that? That's stupid.
