Lmao, no bro. Just people who understand how public transit doesn’t extend everywhere. Do we need to bring up a map and highlight the routes covered by public transit and the ones covered by roads so that you can see the difference?

Or maybe, it’s people who think they understand why it doesn’t extent everywhere.
But the truth is, that lines got cut and slashed, trains made shorter, and so on, all in the name of the Golden Cow of Profit. When shareholder profit becomes focus, general wellbeing decreases.
I spend everyday outside, btw. It’s a bit naïve to assume that others like me don’t.

Lmao, no.
It’s because roads get built first because they’re cheap and flexible. It costs nothing to build a dirt road but a bulldozer and a bit of time.
Transportation networks start with desire paths with take the form of cheap and easy roads, then they’re expanded and improved upon or abandoned as time goes on demand calls for it.
Eventually public transit gets added and then eventually trains get built.
Congratulations on being a semi-outdoor cat, how often do you go out to the country, vs how often do you walk around the block before returning to your echo chamber?
