This community exists as a sister community/copycat community to the r/fuckcars subreddit.
This community exists for the following reasons:
- to raise awareness around the dangers, inefficiencies and injustice that can come from car dependence.
- to allow a place to discuss and promote more healthy transport methods and ways of living.
You can find the Matrix chat room for this community here.
Rules
-
Be nice to each other. Being aggressive or inflammatory towards other users will get you banned. Name calling or obvious trolling falls under that. Hate cars, hate the system, but not people. While some drivers definitely deserve some hate, most of them didn't choose car-centric life out of free will.
-
No bigotry or hate. Racism, transphobia, misogyny, ableism, homophobia, chauvinism, fat-shaming, body-shaming, stigmatization of people experiencing homeless or substance users, etc. are not tolerated. Don't use slurs. You can laugh at someone's fragile masculinity without associating it with their body. The correlation between car-culture and body weight is not an excuse for fat-shaming.
-
Stay on-topic. Submissions should be on-topic to the externalities of car culture in urban development and communities globally. Posting about alternatives to cars and car culture is fine. Don't post literal car fucking.
-
No traffic violence. Do not post depictions of traffic violence. NSFW or NSFL posts are not allowed. Gawking at crashes is not allowed. Be respectful to people who are a victim of traffic violence or otherwise traumatized by it. News articles about crashes and statistics about traffic violence are allowed. Glorifying traffic violence will get you banned.
-
No reposts. Before sharing, check if your post isn't a repost. Reposts that add something new are fine. Reposts that are sharing content from somewhere else are fine too.
-
No misinformation. Masks and vaccines save lives during a pandemic, climate change is real and anthropogenic - and denial of these and other established facts will get you banned. False or highly speculative titles will get your post deleted.
-
No harassment. Posts that (may) cause harassment, dogpiling or brigading, intentionally or not, will be removed. Please do not post screenshots containing uncensored usernames. Actual harassment, dogpiling or brigading is a bannable offence.
Please report posts and comments that violate our rules.

Read that last bit and think of all the accidents these things drove people into, just to 'hand off' control .5 seconds before impact.
If we had a real government, Tesla would be in public hearings TODAY.
you do have a real government. They're really really really fascist.
a really bad one... fuck tho you're right.
I'm thinking about how many man-hours and tax dollars go toward status symbols rather than humans.
oof that'll leave you miserable.
similarly, the coal rollers: they pay extra to modify their shitwagons to intentionally run BADLY, inefficiently, so they spew clouds of partially combusted fuel. their children and grandchildren will all suffer for every time these things roll down the block. and they don't care, they think gas costs too much (!?) as they cash their social security checks.
future generations will despise our society.
Current generations despise our society. It's just a matter of despising it enough to want our leader's heads on pikes.
I still cannot fucking believe the culture war has gone so far as to make people do this and think the 'own the libs' by doing so. Absolutely insane society you go there, America. Guess it's the logical conclusion of destroying public education
God I swear the cognitive dissonance of people who chose huge vehicles and then complain about gas prices. we know, that's why we are more efficient in our travel
amen dude.
I think you should be allowed to shoot coal rollers dead. it's self defense
where are the pro lifers when it comes to the assholes poisoning the next generation right?
Not miserable. I've accepted this is what it is and am prodding my brain for workable solutions since activation is spotty, at best. Looking for ways to achieve this, beyond activation, which is still the best shot, but with so few unable or unwilling, what can be added to mobilization/bodies on the streets?
yeah, hard to show up when it's 3 other people confronted by 200 cops. but I think the public is slowly waking up to the fucktocracy it's in. hang in there.
I'm hanging! You too, my friend. Good luck!
it also causes wearing and scoring of the cylinder walls as the fuel/air ratio is so biased that the injectors wash the oil off the parts inside the engine. this actually wears the engine out very quickly and causes it to lose power. they're literally destroying otherwise fine engines just to be assholes.
TRUTH
A crash is counted as on autopilot if it occurs within a few seconds of autopilot disengaging.
a lot of good it is if it's going to get people into no-win situations because musk thinks optical only is a viable solution for the exceptionally complex problem.
Hey optical only works fine... so long as you can hook up the 2 cameras to one of the most powerful super computers on earth.
