Be better as a community and more open to others perspectives, it’s the only way we can all grow together.

I’m blocking this community, doing a great job for engagement for Lemmy guys…

You know, you could have just blocked it and moved on with your day... No, you were right, a passive aggressive post with zero context or any explanation of what you're talking about was right move

"The same old tropes", he writes, from his car while stuck in traffic on a 10-lane highway.

I don't understand this entitlement. The members of this community nor any other community are obligated to entertain you or engage you on your terms. As you said, you're a casual visitor who happened upon the community from All and happened to disagree with that was being said... So what? If you want the cars are awesome and cities should be built around them community, go build it. Attention seeking for what?!?

The fucking irony of calling Fuck Cars a Walled Garden.

Don't worry, I've created /c/I'mSurePeopleWillUseCarsLessIfWeJustAskNicely now that this community is no longer useful!

This community exists as a sister community/copycat community to the r/fuckcars subreddit.

This community exists for the following reasons:

You can find the Matrix chat room for this community here.

Rules

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.
