    everybody who doesn’t need a car for transportation is the bourgeoisie and needs to be shot to ensure more roadspace for the proletarian individual automobile

    Depending on the country this is sort of true, because many workplaces require a full licence to even be considered for work.

    But it’s also missing a few important things. What about disabled people? People who can’t afford lessons or even the tests? People with no support network (no family, friends to teach them to drive)?

    There are many such cases of these, even here on hexbear, we have users in these situations. I was one of them for a period of my life and it fucking sucks, socially it’s embarrassing to admit you can’t drive, and professionally? It limits your options so much, even in cases where it shouldn’t.

    Carbrain is awful.
