Why aren't we doing this

Its awful to go on public transport.

People have cars for the same reason people like their own apartment or their own house. Other people are awful to be around. They will have no problem making loud noises, caughing at you, smelling bad… People dont care, at all.

People actually pay very much to own a car, and why do they do that? Because public transport is a horrible experience. Im addition to the things above, it takes you at least 2-3 times as long to get anywhere using public transport compared to a car.

I really hate it, no joke. Cant stand using it for more than maybe once per month if I have to.

I guess that must be why living in Vienna gives you such a terribly low quality of life, as more trips are done by PT than by car and half the people don’t even own a car (most of them could easily afford one), compared to for example Fake London in Canada.

I dont live in Vienna. There are actually other countries in the world and life is quite different depending on where you live. Thats why people dont have just one opinion about these things.

Lemmy is funny for downvoting an opinion about liking cars. :) But I know why. Its because many people here want others to like what they like. And its very annoying when they like things like driving, since its bad for the environment. And they wish everyone would take the bus.

That is a bit rich from someone who did not start the comment by saying, “I find public transport awful” but as a general truth “Its awful to go on public transport.”

Same goes for your line about how people spend a fortune, just to avoid PT, when in fact, many don’t spend a fortune on cars when they happen to live in places where PT is decent and useful. Almost as if not so much the inherent general awfulness of PT makes people choose going by car but when PT is in that specific place just not good, people do so.

As a general rule, you should always assume people write their personal opinions here since its not a scientific paper you are reading. I would never assume that you speak for the world when you write a comment here.
Show threadJiral1d ago
But you are assuming the downvote is due to people wanting everyone to have the same opinion, not because you generally called PT as awful, no qualification of any kind. Maybe next time communicate in a clearer fashion.

Naah im good with having opinions. You should try it. Thats what these things are for actually. You know, comments? Thats their purpose.

PT is awful, yes.

And here you go again. Still presenting your opinion as general truth, just shortly after moaning about how people don’t accept other opinions. Troll.
Show thread198410h ago

Pointed out to me? Do you see yourself as some kind of a teacher?

You dont even know what trolling is!

Anyway, bye bye.
