Why are some people here on fuckcars still debating on what the best car is ? I mean, most of the time the best car is no car.

edit : that was a genuine question. I wasn't expecting such wrath from car enthusiasts.

Please please tell me you understand why it's not okay to call someone brain damaged for starting a conversation about the nuances of the fuck cars ideology.

What is your end goal? This attitude and lack of basic human respect is not going to do anything but generate hostile conversation. I'm on your side ideologically but tanj... this is not a healthy way to communicate those ideas.

Even if they're asking in bad faith, it would be much more useful to be able to read well thought out reasons as to why they're wrong, because comments like this aren't going to communicate why we will almost always need to use cars for niche applications. (Transporting construction materials and workers to remote areas, for establishing wind farms, etc.)
