  • Just going to add that it’s absolutely your Canadian showing.

    Y’all got some massively sprawling suburbs that most of the world, US included, only has in a few sparing locations.

    If I start driving West, East, or South from the city I live in, the last store or gas station for the next ~1 hour of driving is found 10 minutes away at the edge of the city.

    About 30% of the city’s workforce commutes from outside to get here. Without cars, or significant reforms in zoning, taxes, housing availability, and infrastructure, this city would economically crumble overnight.

    I hate cars. I hate driving. I’ve lived in places where I didn’t enter a car for months on end, and I’ve lived over an hour from the nearest city. Sometimes they are 100% necessary. Sometimes they’re not. Realistically, even if public sentiment changed to the anti-car view right now, it would take decades to get the infrastructure completely in place.


  • That’ factually incorrect. You, sort of, defined the idea of racial superiority and purity. Fascism is not an ideology, but a system of government. It can often include racism and racial purity, but it is not required.

    Fascism is:

    A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, a capitalist economy subject to stringent governmental controls, violent suppression of the opposition, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism.
