I only support Trump in the sense that his wildly illegal actions drive the US Empire into the ground and expose how fucking corrupt and stupid our political system is.

If Hillary was elected, the whole Epstein thing would never have been a media sensation. The only reason it got so big is because dumbfuck Donald doesn't have the political acumen to avoid shit like this. The more Donald Trump is in power, the more the seams that form this corrupt system start to unravel. I don't think he's significantly worse than Biden and Roe V Wade being overturned is proof. Biden is leading us into increasing escalations with China and Russia, continuing the covid deathcult, and presiding over an increasingly shit economic system while doing fuck all to stop it.

Do you plan to run a train through every grocery store, stop to unload at each stop, and still expect to get everything there at the same time?

We don't live in a wildwest train town. Our cities are not built around trains and unless you plan to literally tear down the entirety of New York it will not work.

Even most delivery vehicles should be replaced by either cargo bikes or by spur lines off the railroad.

I just don't think it'd be practical to fill entire grocery stores worth of stuff on bikes. You're not dealing with a few packages of office supplies. You're dealing with entire warehouse districts worth of stuff having to move across cities. Even with reduced consumption, the amount of people needed to transport that on bikes would probably be more than the local population.

Yep, and that's why most people should ride bikes and then use public infrastructure as needed. But automobiles are still necessary, unless you mean to bike in all the equipment you'd find in an ambulance.

so a post-personal-car future is still viable

It takes 160,000 bicycles to incur the road maintenance cost of a single personal car.

Are we disagreeing here or are you just mentioning a statistic?

Young Stalin definitely, but I think Lenin aged better. I could definitely see Engels being good for certain subsections of the gay community tbf.

You should try it on LSD like the creator of LSD did.

Reminds me of this.

I think libs are under the (false) impression that roads are both completely mandatory in society

They kinda are in local transport to be fair. You can't transport truck loads of stuff by bike to grocery stores. This necessitates some level of automobile road to get there. What's unnecessary is regional/national roads for commerce. Most cities would still require road maintenance just for EMS and local commerce even if they had a robust public infrastructure. The good news is that buses can use these roads as well so a post-personal-car future is still viable. Roadless cities are not.

Works on my computer.

Running in the heat doesn't make you a god-tier athlete. That's what humans are literally built for dickhead.

I've started running less than a month ago and I can still do a 5k in 100+ degree heat.

Also, this is the start week of college for most people which is probably a large portion of their userbase.
