    @vividspecter @M500 It’s also important to note that there’s a huge difference between a social critique and a personal insult.

    The lack of viable transport alternatives is a systemic issue. It’s not a personal moral failure.

    It is not a personal moral fault to drive where no good alternatives exist.

    The solution is not a different personal transport choice. The solution is systemic change to how transport, infrastructure, and planning are delivered.

    The survey looks at how people have been socially conditioned to accept the systemic issues.

    It involves a lot of blame shifting, and victim blaming.

    It involves dropping or changing a number of socially accepted rights and wrongs as soon as a car is involved.
