Yeah. It's about as childish as it gets. People need cars to get to work and that's about all there is to it in the US. If people don't want cars, then why don't they do something productive like design better public transit and lobby for better city setups which don't require vehicle transportation, or something along those lines? But because it's hard to do things that make a difference, they instead sit there and complain about "fuck cars" which does nobody any good.
New theory, internalized guilt over online shopping induced by media showing the impacts of climate change alongside the implication that delivery is to blame is manifesting as "fuck cars" instead of "I'll simply buy less or hate myself less when I do shop"
