The US was built on steam trains going literally everywhere
- Comment on Too bad we can't have good public transportation 1 week ago:
We just kind of spread out everywhere quickly and made the train locations somewhat irrelevant.
Do you know any US history

a brutal dictatorship which violates human rights on the regular
Don’t you think you’re a little harsh on the US?

That’s because they’re politically illiterate. The important difference is the economic model and its end goal. Is it to make a small elite super rich? Is it to meet the peoples’ needs? The US is extremely efficient in creating a small class of super rich people (and by that I mean corporations too) while China is extremely efficient in switching to renewable energy and expanding high speed rail.

It’s not perfect but I think this is what people in this thread are fighting for. Which isn’t stupid imo

Are you by chance from the US? Because other countries have sensible zoning laws and public transit, making cars for families not a necessity but a luxury. Where I live, nobody needs a car. Shopping is done by cargo bike or hand cart, family trips are taken by train or metro.
If you live in a stupid country tho people might depend on cars.

Dumbest sentiment I read in a while. People, even kids, are pretty much aware of what’s happening (remember Fridays for Future?), but the rich have coopted the power apparatus and they are not letting anyone get in their way of destroying the planet to become a little richer.

Had corporations with their profit incentive not taken over the whole net, it could have been something akin to collective intelligence.

What’s up with all these 2010 memes with democrat talking points showing up recently? Was there like a thinktank that came up with the idea to reach more fellow kids?

I always thought this meme was directed at right wing working class people because the left is already fighting the class war while also defending civil rights against “culture warriors”
