it's helpful to live close to resources you can easily reach on foot.
It's healthier, too. Moving on your feet, you'll lose weight.
We're talking about a continent where the primary modes of transportation for centuries were walking and horseback. Walkable settlements are not out of the ordinary there for these reasons. And we're talking about villages with a sense of shared community/culture, not secularized globalist tripe by shoving thousands of people into skyscrapers like a Soviet apartment complex.

You know what the worst part of the reddit thread is? The surplus of sociopolitical commentary and the dearth of properly archived reddit cawntent. Yes you all smell your own farts.
 
Europoor detected, opinion discarded. You people can't comprehend driving more than an hour because you'd cross three international borders.
Did the founding fathers drive a car? Or what about those single street frontier towns from the cowboy movies?

America bad takes priority over religious theocracy bad
There has to be some kind of flowchart which lets you follow a redditard's decision what to support.
Something like
>national or international conflict

if national
>democrat/republican issue

if international
>is america on one of the two sides?

And of course the global override
>did Trump take a position? pick the opposite side!

I don't understand how it's become a political stance or "my god given right!" to have poorly designed living spaces. Being able to walk 5 minutes up the road and buy shopping is so nice. If you're short on something while cooking dinner you can go buy the missing ingredients or buy fresh stuff to cook as soon as you get home. It's good exercise, it's free. But there's a weird type of American that's proud of... owning a car and wasting money on fuel? Yea, I don't get it.
 
I'm in favor of making cities more walkable and having better public transport, but I am not in favor of banning cars and doing the 15-minute-city Soviet shit the UK is trying to do, where you only have an allotted number of days for travel outside of your city. The problem with deranged troon redditors is they're probably on the extreme commie end of the issue. They probably think limiting your freedom to independent transportation is "saving the environment" or some gay vegan faggot shit. Despite them never addressing how India is one of the largest destroyers of the environment.

You have political brain rot. Living in small towns/villages where you have access to everything in a short walk has been how humanity has always lived. It's not some left wing idea to suggest it's helpful to live close to resources you can easily reach on foot.
But we aren't talking about small towns when we're talking about the urbanist/walkable city/fuckcars crowd though. They actively hate small towns and think that a hyper dense urban center is the only way to achieve their ends. Once again I recommend the dedicated r/fuckcars thread on the Farms here, it's a fun thread and it will go into great detail on the insanity that these people actually believe in.

ETA: They also tend to be deeply anti-social, alcoholics, anti-natalist, and soft on crime.

That is convenient, but also requires dense urban planning. I would rather have a 5-10 minute drive if that means I can live in a house in a neighborhood, with a backyard, a nice tree out front, maybe a park a block away, than live in an apartment building that is a 5 minute walk from the grocery store.

Fuel you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.

And what happens when there's a blizzard and you can't walk to the store or the store isn't getting deliveries because of some bullshit plandemic or rioting uppity niggers? Those of us that live in rural areas stock up on food and grow/hunt for food so we don't need to go to the store every day. It's not "wasting gas" if I get to live somewhere free of leftists and niggers. You can enjoy being culturally enriched by imported turd world shitskins in your village while I can sit on my deck and shoot my AR-15 as much as I want.

Or that train outage in Japan from a week or two ago that stranded commuters for 5 1/2 hours on their way home from work.

You can have both? The village I grew up in had a super market that was always fully stocked. You could walk to it and it had everything you needed. A hardware store and a chip shop, along with a cafe and you have basically everything you need.

Political brainrot again. We can't have well planned living spaces because niggers might riot or we might get weather that's unsafe to walk or drive in.

Touch grass.

Look I know you're taking the piss but just today we got 12 inches of snow where I live and it's still not slowing down, this is normal for us. I understand that most of Europe is mild weathered but people do live in areas where weather is a serious concern.

Update: We've gotten another foot since I posted this, it still hasn't slowed down.

It's difficult to have a decently sized house with a yard and a good amount of space, and to be living in a neighborhood without having to take a short drive to the supermarket. It's a space thing. Big yards + decently sized houses = bigger neighborhoods = further distance away from commercial buildings to where I don't want to walk 20 minutes both ways to the store in 90+ degree weather (32 Celsius) in the summer. Most neighborhoods are within a 5-10 minute drive to the store, or multiple stores.

If I want to have a decent house with a big yard and lots of space, I have to have a car to drive around. It's a necessity for this kind of living. There is something charming to what you're describing, but it also seems cramped from my perspective.
 
Public transport just needs a certain population density and needs to be adjusted to meet the needs of the citizens. You don't build an underground metro network for some village with 200 inhabitants. And you can't make NYC function if you would lock off their metro system and asked everyone to just go by car. The problem is that some car people think you can design a city with 12 lanes going both sides in the city center and that'll fix it. And fuck cars people think you can just link up tiny villages in bumfuck alabama with a magnetic train and that'll serve everyone's needs. The farmer living 20 miles from civilization can just take the bus that stops in front of his door every 3 hours.
And of course people have to accept that public transport and people with zero civic responsibility do not mix. Lefties have to pick between their pets and enjoyable public transport.

I actually agree. I've lived in the best of both worlds and you know what, I do prefer to have walkable/bikable locations only so that I don't need to constantly worry about car maintenance and gas price fluctuations and all that jazz. I don't know why pedestrian-friendly infrastructure is inherently cringe, it is how society lived for centuries until only the past 100 years or so. But at the moment, if I lose my car, I'm completely fucked, and I think that's a fair thing to be frustrated by. Redditor bugmen just do an extremely good job at presenting it as some weird hivemind thing. And yet what they always fail to understand is that pedestrian friendly infrastructure really does rely heavily on high trust society... despite their love supporting walking spaces and buses and etc, they don't see anything wrong with said walking spaces being filled up with the homeless and killer negroes. Despite my enjoyment of public transport, even if it was an option, I still would rather drive when considering the current conditions they are in (that Redditor-types helped bring to fruition mind you).
I live in a walkable town. And it's a tiny ass town. There's plenty of walkable places in America. Elmore's suburbs earn walking distances to stories.
 
Some people like cities, some people like suburbs, and some people aren't happy unless there's at least ten miles between their home and the nearest civilization.

Before the Internet I viewed these as personal preferences, and I still do, but the Internet taught me that a lot of people get very angry knowing that there are people out there not gushing over their high-rise/lawn/20 acres, because literally everything must be something you argue over.

I'm sure there's already places online where if I say I like fantasy novels I get called a Nazi for not reading sci-fi like a proper person.

Only a little wear around the "orifaces" and if you're in the Bay Area you can pick them up in person and maybe shake the seller's hand to seal the deal
