    I don’t know why these discussion are often met with “if you’re not ready to lose your car you’re the problem” narrative.

    I hate that argument. I can’t use public transit and most cities are too big to be walkable.

    I also hate the idea of walkable cities, which is a dog-whistle-word for 15-minute cities, full of surveillance and all kinds of other bullshit, like not being able to go back the way you came and having to walk all around the entire town to go back home.

      You’re getting surveillance regardless of walkablity. Amazon is happy enough to hand Ring camera footage over to authorities no questions asked.

        You said you can’t use public transit twice but neither time did you specify why.

        I’m disabled in several ways, I don’t want to talk about it.

      Someone has been feeding you some weird bullshit about 15-minute cities. The concept of 15-minutes cities has nothing whatsoever to do with the things you wrote.
