MODERATORS
People get weirdly anti social about public transit. Like, "I don't want to have to be around other people!!"
Sometimes it's racism. Sometimes it's just... anti social.
Personally I think anti-social people can go leave society, and the rest of us can build a better, more cooperative world.
Ah yes... put all the anti-social people into their own society. I'll call it a "suburb". We won't regret making car dependent suburbs.
No need to call people who are not overly extrovert "anti-social".
Tell me you've never been assaulted by a drunk guy on a train without telling me you've never been assaulted by a drunk guy on a train.
I've taken trains daily in the NYC area (not counting the pandemic) for almost 30 years. So, no, your cliché is wrong.
Good for you. I was assaulted on a train from London to Manchester before I learnt how to drive.
