"Heh, how financially illiterate", said the bartender with a master's degree in Gender Studies.

Bartenders make good money and are forced to socialize with people. Neither are common traits for Redditors.

Gersh Kuntzman, the faggot who whined about how supposedly terrifying it was to fire an AR-15, is also an insufferable cyclist who literally does traffic jannying for free to own it to those carbrains who evade traffic fines. Just goes to show the considerable overlap between anti-gun fags and anti-car fags.

He was featured on yesterday's MATI (clip from 29:53 in Rumble VOD):

Ladies and gents, I may have to concede that I am carbrained and completely felted by the urbanists. Last Sunday night, I saw a perfect example of mass transit in tight spaces. I present to you the mini-train.

View attachment 5948254

Seating up to twelve and taking up a lot less space than a car, this mini-train was very popular with kids and adults alike, easily maneuvering in the wide open internal spaces of the mall. Pedestrians were easily warned off by kiddy songs played for the passengers, even as the electric motor silently delivered efficient power to the locomotive.

This mini-train solves all the problems with urban transit, and I expect policies to see them replacing cars in the city soon, before more pedestrians are killed and global warming boils the oceans and turns the planet into a sauna. Kneel before your new lord and master, carbrains, it's all over.

Imagine how sick that train would be diesel-electric though

Fire deaths per million citizens:

• USA: 12.4
• France: 9.8
• UK: 7.6
• Spain: 5.2
• Italy: 4.2

So US fire deaths are over 20% higher than the highest of the Western European countries selected and almost triple the deaths in Italy. I wasn’t cherry-picking; I chose the most populous countries in Europe nearest the US. Germany, for example, is substantially lower than Italy.
So the wealthiest country in the sample with the most modern buildings performed worst on fire deaths? Meanwhile, the other countries have buildings hundreds of years older, serviced by cobbled-together electricity and built on streets so narrow that many of them would be considered alleys in the US performed substantially better? How can this be? I’ll post later on the details of fire risk and urban form, but unless the Europeans are fantastically smarter than Americans and have much better reaction time, how else do you explain this huge discrepancy other than as a product of urban form? I suspect the primary cause of this difference that is costing over a thousand American lives per year is the difference in urban form.

Yay, disingenuous use of statistics. If this guy was halfway honest he would be comparing the stats of similarly sized cities around the world instead of a country's total. That way you can focus more on the actual impacts urban planning can have on fire safety as well as control for fire deaths that are unique to some countries and unrelated to urban planning like US wild fires that can inflate the death toll.

Kids love engine rooms and dangerous shit. I think they'd be great fans.

Would be hard to run in a mall or in city centers with all the diesel and brake particles coming off of it, but I think it'd make a great transit option! The engine might be a bit heavy, but we can just make really big wheels to spread the weight, right?

Literally pledges allegiance to a king who is the head of the state religion

I don't see the issue.

Yay, disingenuous use of statistics.

It also doesn't account for the fact that a good amount America's population live in literal deserts and that one of most populous states in the union bursts into flame on a regular basis.

I think there *chirp* might be something more unique to the US that isn't present in those *chirp* countries in the same quantity. I can't quite put my finger on it *chirp* though.

What's even funnier is that I found the study this retard gets his statistics for this result, and he absolutely cherry-picked the result. A number of countries, including Denmark, Norway, Finland, and Japan are all higher than America. America is actually the middle of the pack in this study, and in a later section, it actually talks about improvement in fire safety since 1979 and America has seen the second best improvement percentage wise.

How could I forget.

On a semi related note, I was listening to Explore with US in the background and heard the chirp in a section involving three black women were talking on the phone. How prevalent is this, and is there a way to get numbers on how many fatalities are due to fires with dead smoke detectors?

I'm surprised that Finland is so high on the list. Thanks for sharing and I will read through it later.

 

[King George III]

how many fatalities are due to fires with dead smoke detectors?

In older niggo homes probably a lot, but in recent years it has become code to hardwire smoke detectors, so the numbers will steadily decrease over the years (though the chirp will remain ever present). Oddly enough, I don't recall there being a requirement to hardwire carbon monoxide detectors.

 

[RA-5C Vigilante]

With how much urbanists go on about pedestrian fatalities and how trains would be the solution to them I hope they never actually look into Brightline.

"Uber has never made a single profit in its whole existence" well that changed roughly a month after this post, give the guy here some credit since he wasn't wrong at the time but it's pretty funny that the universe changed to make this one person wrong specifically.

Late response, but when I was working at Norfolk Southern, one of the engineers my buddy worked with took a sick leave for a month that turned out to be him trying to get a job on Brightline. I was told the accident rate is one of the reasons they bleed engineers, because having one or two deaths in a twenty year stint is somewhat common on freight, but its like once a week someone's killed there, and it gets to them very quickly. But I'm just a guy who was briefly a freight conductor and is Amtrak qualified on parts of the Northeast Corridor, so what do I know compared to a Reddit user and his faggy Eurotrash bicycle?

Looks like a Fuckcars user was not happy at Null calling "amsterdam's a shithole full of immigrants”. This was on the MATI youtube archive of the FuckCar’s gumroad special. And he called null a “Fashtard”

And he claims the “highway men are nazis”
It sounds like bait but I thought I would share anyway

"Highways are a giant gas chamber to kill the weak"

That has to be a troll

I did some digging and found some interesting stuff on this guy’s YT channel

Subscriptions are usually a good way of determining someone’s beliefs, and although I can’t see his subscriptions through his profile, YouTube allows you to see (some) subscriptions by pressing on his profile in the comments (not sure if this is an exploit or something?):


Most channels he’s subbed to are in French and/or about rap music, but there are some subscriptions that stood out to me:

“Hors-Serié”, which appears to be commie shit.



“BreakThrough News”, which appears to be more commie shit whining about Palestine.


“Enfants de L’Est”, which appears to be for the Soviet equivalent of Weeaboos.

These subscriptions lead me to believe this dude is being serious.

I also checked his channel’s about section and found that it links to a Facebook and a personal website, although both seem to be dead links.


Link to his channel in case anyone wants to do more digging:

https://youtube.com/@LoicCoenen

I also googled the name Loïc Coenen but there seem to be several people with that name so I couldn’t confirm if any are the correct dox.

The ones about car deaths are even better. Here's 4 countries that are safer than the US...
The US is safer than most of South America and most of Africa, most of the middle east, China, etc.

The article is from 2017, which is a good reminder that StrongTowns.org was always and is pozzed trash, despite the "but Chuck is conservative!" defenses.

The funny thing is that they've painted themselves into a corner with that. They blame highway and road infrastructure for problems in America, yet in Africa the infrastructure is so much worse (in third world countries, a paved road with two lanes in each direction is considered good stuff), it forces the racial element.

Dominican Republic actually. But that's only because you can't have shit in Haiti and would have your car stolen or stripped for parts two days after getting it.

Well half those governments are old commie projects gone wrong. You can easily blame the fact they have no infrastructure and shit training on a shitty leftist system built on central planning- like fuckcars wants.
