I love smelling the fumes! I love the noise! Please, run me over, cars! I love getting stuck in traffic! Yes!
Oh no step bro
This meme is so accurate. It should be sent to the thrash radio hosts of Quebec City. These people are so idiot, they are fighting against a tramway, a 1 billion dollar project, that the entire country agreed to pay for.
Cars has being a big industry in western countries for years. The decline of the automotive might be the good chance to get rid of them.
Or have small selfdriving electrical vehicles on demand only. Why don't we have that? Anyone can build a super secure vehicle that plods along in the city at 20-30 kmh max.
Or larger electric self-driving vehicles on a track?
That sounds really energy efficient! We should have networks of these. We could make them run at specific intervals to optimise traffic flow.
steel wheels on steel roads has near zero rolling resistance, it is the future of automobiles.
Hey maybe those cars could be coupled together on the track, since they are going to the same place anyway.
Get a bike or mobility scooter.
But it is (corporate) freedom!
It doesn’t feel very free when I’m required to own and operate one as the only practical means to get to and from my job due to a lack of public transportation.
Oh we agree. I don't mean freedom benefiting us, but corporations.
Freedom? Owning a car?!? In this economy?!?
/s
Yes, yes. But can we get some new memes please 🥺
Feel free to post. Lemmy definitely needs more people contributing.
Follow the money. One makes the owning class unfathomably rich as it ties every living human to their transportation manufacturing. The other is so easy to repair you might need to just spend a few bucks on parts. Capitalists hate freedom.
I totally feel free to step out and walk through the bottom picture /s
