He still uses a car:
A bit late to this, but what shithole do you live in where Walmart is 40 minutes away? Assuming that the 40 minutes is a round-trip, that's still a long way for a city. It's true that when I lived in Houston the less-shitty Walmart was over 20 minutes away but that's because the closer one was extremely shitty. But I also don't think of being progressive, either.

He lives in Carmel, Indiana. It takes only ~25 minutes to drive across the entire city diagonally (i.e. there is nowhere in the city that is 40 minutes away from any other thing in the city). There are several Walmarts in the city, including one only ~two miles away from the walkable downtown that he frequently posts pictures of.

If you read his post carefully though, he’s not complaining about it taking 40 minutes to get to Walmart, he’s complaining that the total trip time was 40 minutes. He’s including not only time spent getting to the store, but also the time spent shopping and the time spent going back home, which is obviously dumb.
 
Germany just had (another) muslim drive through a Christmas market with his car, killing 2 and injuring dozens

Wonder how people like Jason will try to use this to push their own agenda
Jason has a weird relationship with talking about crime in that he claims his channel isn't about it (i.e., his excuse for why he won't talk about crime being more prevalent or at the very least more noticeable in denser areas and crimes that happen on subways and such) but he'll gladly talk about road fatalities with respect to cars.

I always thought it was a little odd that he never had a "cars being intentionally used as weapons" video because it's got the shock value that he and other YouTubers crave while being one of the better arguments for his agenda. But then I thought about it for a bit and realized he can't do that because his videos all have a "what can we do about it?" ending ripped straight from John Oliver, and even he knows the only correct answer to that is strict immigration restriction and harsher prison sentences, possibly even the death penalty, which runs in total opposition to his worldviews.

It also only happened because of trams. They couldn’t shut down the road next to the market because if they did so they would have crippled the entire city’s tram network. The terrorist noticed this lapse in security and took advantage of it.

If they had buses instead of streetcars, the road could have been closed because the buses can divert to another road.

Blaming the attack on cars instead of on Islam:

At least they admit that the road wasn’t blocked off due to trams (though the next comments are all about how they should have installed fancy bollards that detect when a tram is coming):

They’re mad that the article’s author mentioned that it’d be difficult to take a rental e-bike to the airport if you have luggage:
I've biked from the airport before. It helps if you own or rent your own plane, have a folding bike and equip it with proper panniers. It's sort of a fun, if impractical way to travel. Also, don't do it in Denver if you've got 3.5 miles to the hotel and aren't acclimated to the elevation.
 
Saw this article shared on /r/fuckcars (it got no traction, I wonder why…):

The new district mayor ran on a platform of reopening the road:
The debate began after Seodaemun District Mayor Lee Sung-heon was elected in 2022 with a pledge to abolish the car-free street policy. More than 2,000 merchants and residents of Yonsei-ro submitted a petition to the district office calling for the abolition of the car-free street concept.
Reopening the road increased sales:
A district survey found that average daily sales per store were 23 percent higher during the period when the traffic restrictions were lifted.
and reduced traffic on side streets:
As Yonsei-ro reopened to private vehicles, the number of cars driving through the side streets in Sinchon decreased. Specifically, the side streets in front of Changseo Elementary School saw a 10 percent reduction in daily traffic, dropping from 2,088 to 1,877 vehicles.

This is in Seoul, one of the densest cities in the developed world with good public transit.

Urbanists like to champion the removal of the Cheonggyecheon highway, but who knows how much of that data is real?

In any case, South Korea is figuring out what America figured out decades ago--closing roads to vehicular traffic doesn't work if there's nothing to actually walk to.
 
We also have the tech to deport every Islamic invader, yet here we are
The guy was so notorious even the Saudi Arabians wanted him in jail and warned the German authorities. Imagine how much of a piece of shit you have to be that even the Saudi Arabians don't like you? But no, the Germans just let him walk the streets until he murdered people.

This has nothing to do with cars and anybody who ties it to cars is clearly trying to push an agenda.

I think thats why people would expect these types of urbanists to try and use these as a gotcha in their endless battle of meaningless retarded arguments, its just that the race of the perp can also be used to push the antithesis to their progressive faggotry

Where I used to live walmsrt was probably a 40 min round trip and ironically it was a city.

I lived in an old residential area and due to the geography of rivers you had to really go out of the way by road or interstate to get to the walmart which was also in a very populated but more modern area.
 
Seoul is also questionable as hell, considering as recent as 1995 there were still building massive malls
that would collapse and kill 500.
Protip: if the concrete is spalling that building is falling.
American road infrastructure is by and large actually really, really good—it became
"American infrastructure is bad" only after the 2007 Minneapolis bridge collapse (which
was almost two decades now) because spontaneous bridge collapses like that are
unbelievably rare, you basically have to set something on fire or ram a ship into a
support column (as what happened this year) to get a bridge to collapse like that.


Wanna play classic arcade games with friends while drinking? Buy a MAME arcade cabinet and some beer.. Oh also you're probably going to want a house as well.

Mixed drinks are also super-expensive as well, but even an apartment can have a small liquor cabinet. Liquor doesn't go bad, and various accoutrements are inexpensive. A good Bloody Mary has vodka (shelf stable), tomato juice (shelf stable), a few other things (generally shelf stable), and celery. If your crummy "bodega" doesn't stock fresh celery it's not a grocery store.

If you drive a car you’re a terrorist
The one variable that all these retards forget is niggers, towelheads and other dregs of humanity. They can plan their perfect walkable utopia all they want but literally no sane person would want to ride their bike through one of their culturally inclusive "enriched neighborhoods" and get mugged, take the bus filled with "doctors and engineers" and leave without you wallet, get stuck on a train packed with smelly indian people or get molested. And then they go and blame cars for a terror attack despite the fact that if a centralized state owned mass transit system got attacked it would be way worse. What makes cars great is that you aren't crammed into a metal tube underground with hundreds of people you don't know and you are stuck relying on safety security from a government that does not care about you. You have more freedom and autonomy than what ever soy induced visions of utopia these cucks can come up with.

Yes, and incidents like the Jordan Neely/Daniel Penny case don't help mass transit's case. (Even with Penny innocent, the faggots at Wikipedia insist on calling the article Killing of Jordan Neely.) However, the same article does correctly note Neely's extensive criminal history, he wasn't some down-on-his-luck street performer, he was, pardon the pun, "bad".

Jordan Maurice Caine Neely was a 30-year-old man who grew up in Bayonne, New Jersey.[45] Neely had an extensive criminal record, including 42 arrests for offenses such as petty larceny, theft, jumping subway turnstiles, and assaults. Between 2019 and 2021, he was involved in three unprovoked assaults on women in the subway.
