Cargo e-bikes generally have a battery capacity limit of around 25 miles (which batteries aren’t meant to be fully drained every time they’re used anyway).

Any suggestions that don’t include the use of cars in a carpool or moving?

Is “Fuck Cars” a pro-city/anti-rural philosophy?

    Then is the point of this community just to vent frustrations without actually changing anything because its pointless? I mean that’s fine, I guess.

      I mean, most of the communities regarding any kind of politics tend to be pointless in the sense they achieve nothing, that’s what I think of /r/antiwork for example. I don’t think you can fight back the lobby done my car manufacturers within a capitalist society if that’s what you’re asking. I’m here because I like seeing posts that reinforce and serve as facts about how poorly designed is the urban model that uses cars as its main transportation mechanism.

          Let’s think about this in the terms of material reality of the working class. What kind of improvements have been? Has the life of an interesting amount of the proletariat gotten any better? In that case I think /r/wallstreetbets is probably worse than /r/antiwork because that people tend to steer towards different forms of rightism, at least the anti work movements are an introduction into possible branches of leftism which could end up radicalizing a few people. Maybe if anti work would have traction in another country, like for example India, or almost any from Africa, I could think there’s a chance of it becoming in something that could bring change, but since it’s happening in the US I don’t think the proletariat there can do much against the biggest militarized state of the entire world. Still, I’d rather this a thousand times before having a right wing movement having lots of followers.

        I am an odd mix of being a capitalist (anti-fascims, though) and an environmentalist (naturally, that includes tree-hugging, veganism, and minimalism). Political discussion has its place, but in the wrong forums just makes some of us feel out of place.

      Listing problems is fine, but constant complaining drives some people away.
