For my own sanity — and as the unofficial moderator of The War on Cars account — I'm actively muting anyone who thinks "Not everyone can bike everywhere, you know" is a cogent argument against reducing car dependency.

I've taken the attitude of @notjustbikes to heart and simply don't have patience for it anymore.

@BrooklynSpoke @notjustbikes These subtle statements are just a systemic cultural norm that puts cars above every other mode. That mode of travel is ‘normal’. What tires me is the unwritten subsidy cars hold on so many aspects of our daily lives. How much precious land is taken on roads and road expansion not only to travel but just to park on a side streets! #bikes
