I often see people in the comments acting like having a fast or loud car immediately makes your dick smaller or that you have ED. And people talk about owning a car as if they’ve never gone above 40 MPH and are terrified to do so.
For context I live in a city with actually ok mass transit, don’t own a car, and prefer to bike/take the train whenever possible. Trains, trolleys, bikes, and feet are the best forms of transportation imo.
That being said, body shaming or making fun of people with physical or mental issues (that may be no fault of their own) is just shitty. It makes this community look shitty. I hate reading comments about “loud car small dick this” or “fast car ED that”. It’s unnecessary. You can shit on asshole drivers without having to stoop that low. Secondly, some women enjoy cars as well; be more creative.
Finally, don’t act like cars can’t be fun. I’m all for phasing out the automobile and revolutionizing transport by returning to the ways of olde, but cars are fun. I understand some of you are grandparents and don’t like someone revving their straight pipes mustang down your block on a Saturday morning. That’s completely reasonable. But my god does this community act like you can’t have fun in a car. I absolutely enjoy loud and fast and powerful cars, because that’s an incredible work of engineering and it simply can be fun. Going fast can be fun. Being in a car that purrs like a lion can be fun. Going offroading or drifting or racing or anything in a car can be fun.
We won’t convince people to see our side by shitting on the things they enjoy. We convince people to try and see things from our point of view by actually looking through their perspective first, and acknowledging that while cars can be fun they are not sustainable.
ETA: Some people seem to think I think public roads should still be for cars. Never did I say that. I think the appropriate place for cars is the track. I would love to convert all the roads in my city to a mixture of bike and pedestrian lanes with trolleys running down the median. But cars can be fun and a track day can absolutely be a great time.
Removing comment because I feel like I am just contributing to misinformation and I don’t want to unleash baseless speculation about a community based on a silly thought I came up with as a joke, and not a serious point.
Edit to add clarification
“Fuck cars” is an easy statement to make in NYC.
“Fuck cars” isn’t a very serious statement to make in the middle of Oklahoma.
We all know why, which is why this is a joke sub. You can’t have zero cars. The world outside of Queens isn’t an endless sea of more buildings and bus stops, I’m sorry. Read a map.
End small-dick hatred. Body shaming isn’t okay no matter what.
For every lifted coal roller, there is a small-dicked, eco conscious bicyclist.
Don’t forget impotent. Those bike seats are not good for sexual performance.
Why would you have sex with a bike seat?
I mean, look, I come in here and argue with these guys all the time, but the sub ain’t called “I politely disagree with cars”.
Nobody above the 95 IQ range owns or enjoys loud vehicles.
I throw small to medium sized rocks at parked cars because they leave the types of damage that could plausibly just have happened from daily driving. It’s a great way to drive car owners slowly insane and to further the agenda of the Fuck Cars community.
I somewhat agree with you but whenever I stand next to one of those guys in a Lambo with a hot young girl who need to accelerate full BBRRAAAAAAAAAHHH until the next traffic light 30 meters down the road, I’ll still assume you have a tiny penis and are trying to make up for it. It’s not the tiny penis I care about, its the “I’m so insecure that i need a Lambo and a hot chick to feel like i matter” that irks me.
You may be vastly underestimating how many car enthusiasts would like there to be less traffic.
Avg commuter simping his wage mobile is hardly an “automotive enthusiast”
I absolutely enjoy loud and fast and powerful cars,
Cool! You won’t mind if I go spin up a diesel generator upwind of your house then, right?
I just really enjoy diesel generators and your opinion on my noise and air pollution shouldn’t weigh heavily on the scale of what I’m allowed to do. It’s only fair!
I’m sorry bro but if I have to listen to your fucking ICE going up and down my otherwise quiet street at all hours of the day then I am allowed to call you small dicked. If you are offended by this, I will assume it true.
Go to a fucking race track and leave the rest of us out of your dumb hobby.
