    I feel like people will still find a way to love them. Or they’d blame the woke agenda for making them ugly. But seriously, look at all the fucking ugly ass land yatchs on the road. We need to go back to the 90s with soft curves so that all the manly men get mad at how soft trucks/SUVs have gotten.

      Most cars are hideous AF and people still love them, or at the very least cannot imagine a world without them.

      Pre-radicalization me had a business idea that was just gas stations but for EVs. It was all well-intentioned, but it was proof even I couldn’t imagine the reduced omnipresence of the automobile. Unfortunately as leftists we tend not be good salesmen, so many people subconsciously DO prefer walkable cities even if they aren’t aware they are. To Americans, walkability is je ne sais quoi they like about European and Asian cities, but will short-circuit when you’re told its because cars are not a priority. To them, it’s alien. I’m not saying this to bash on them, since I was in this group before but moreso point out that Americans and Canadians might be more open to this than one may think, here’s a study showing that Americans generally prefer walkable cities.

      I miss when sport-class was sharp and angular and original muscle-class looked like gorgeously chrome-detailed angels of the empty blacktops
