Why are some people here on fuckcars still debating on what the best car is ? I mean, most of the time the best car is no car.

edit : that was a genuine question. I wasn't expecting such wrath from car enthusiasts.

What the fuck man... Reread your comment and count to 10, then reread OPs post and consider if this reply isn't toxic as hell.

People are saying that they need a car because society has fucked them over and in order for their life to work they need a car. That is why a discussion about what kind of car they should buy to minimize harm is important. OP is basically complaining that the discussion isn't pure enough because only a complete elimination of cars right this second is good enough. They reiterate this over and over in the comments and edited the post to call people "car enthusiasts" because they, like me, think OP is unproductive and toxic to the movement.

It's a valid point, you need to actually get people on your side for a cause to succeed, and saying "all cars are bad" isn't how you do that.
